Tuesday, November 11th, 2008Taking cues from Janelle Monae’s futuristic personna, new comer Brittany Bosco channels her inner femme bot with songs like “Glitch” and “City of Nowhere” from her debut EP, Spectrum. Unlike Monae however, Bosco brings to the table a much more jazzy and soulful electro sound. Picture her a lounge singer at her piano on […]
The Cell Theory
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008Ok, this post might be a little biased considering I do have a slight (ok, maybe huge) crush on Taylor McFerrin, however it doesn’t make his side project, The Cell Theory any less reputable. I got to catch them over the summer in Prospect Park and it was awesome. Having live drums and […]

Martina Topley-Bird at the Les Creatives Festival
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008Time permitting, I would love to take the hour long trip to Geneva to check out Martina Topley-Bird at the Les Creatives Festival in November. Topley-Bird first crashed onto the music scene in 1995 on Tricky’s “Maxinquaye”, creating quite a stir amongst the then pop-conservatives. On her sophomore album “The Blue God”, released […]

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008Finally Sam Sparro is on iTunes in the US! It only took about 3 months after the release of his album on iTunes UK. Sadly it was my mother (thanks again mom!) who informed me that he was the single of the week on iTunes….man, I really got to stop working so much! […]
The Noisettes on “Diary of a Call Girl”
Tuesday, June 17th, 2008So last night on the premiere of “Diary of a Call Girl”, I hear this great soulful song at the end of the show, that ends up bursting at the seems into a full out rock song. After searching endlessly for the song, I found it to be “Break Free” by The Noisettes. […]

I have Andreya Triana to thank for turning me on to J. Most. I happened to stumble upon his name as an artist that she was currently digging, and I can see why. WOW. I mean this dude has got some amazingly soulful songs…I mean D’Angelo type […]
Swiss Miss, Stefanie Heinzmann
Thursday, May 15th, 2008Ok, so even though Stefanie Heinzmann is most likely one of those manufactured artists that was set into motion after the success of Amy Winehouse (ex. Duffy), she isn’t half bad, and she is Swiss!. At first listen the track started out very similar to that of The Roots rework of Cody Chestnutt’s “The […]
Sam Sparro covers Estelle’s “American Boy”
Thursday, May 1st, 2008Santogold and Sam Sparro are the albums I have been anticipating the most this year. Now with the release of Santogold’s self-titled album on Tuesday, I just have to wait for Mr. Sparro’s to drop here in the states. Not to worry though, I came across this video of him in the studio […]
