Boac’s Modern Originalus cd is one of the few Rap/Hip Hop cds that is actually full of intelligence. Boac isn’t rapping about busting caps or drinking 40s. He actually has something to say. more at www.amazon.com

If you haven’t yet discovered the prowess of Geologic (rhymes), and Sabzi (beats), let me be the first to tell you that you are missing out. The bond between the two is inseparable. They create a unity that is often rightly compared to that of Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth, or DJ Premier & The Guru. That sounds far-fetched, but these two really have all the tools, passion, and soul to live up to these legends. more at www.amazon.com

I saw BKB open up for another favorite group- Michael Franti & Spearhead this Fall. They got the place jumping straight off with spirited, intelligent, rebel reggae-rock. The vocals are strong enuff to carry songs alone, but this band has percussion in spades with two drummers. more at www.amazon.com

The epitome of great garage rock. Loose but tight, witty but not arrogant (ok maybe just a bit), this album is terrific. If you like 70s rock, the stooges, the white stripes, the black keys, or any of the pioneer punk bands like the minutemen you will love this. more at www.amazon.com

The biggest reason I like this band is for the singer, he is a brilliant writer of both melodies and lyrics. He stands out because he does things I don’t expect, and writes words that sometimes go places I didn’t think they would. Meaning he’s less predictable than a good deal of songwriters, he’s quite diverse. One moment poetic, the next, pure straight-forward blunt rock.
Which is not to discredit the other band members. more at www.amazon.com

Ben Kweller is the newest musical phenominon in the industry. Formely a member of minorly successful rock group Radish, Kweller after spending some time traveling the country, essembles a near perfect collection for his debut solo release. Amazon.com said it best when describing his mucic as melodic, somewhat rickety, frequently acoustic, piano-laced pop. more at www.amazon.com

His performances are like vintage soul with new themes added to a timeless groove. more at www.amazon.com
about 5 hours ago.Beach House
The name of Beach House might imply a certain kind of pop — sunny, frothy, sort of a Beach Boys vibe.
If so, that name is very deceptive, because their music is none of the above. Hailing from Baltimore, Beach House’s second album “Devotion” is more like sleeping in a haunted, jewelled music box — all ghostly singing, lushly sparkling pop instrumentation and sensually dreamy melodies. more at www.amazon.com
