Shawn Chrystopher

This Inglewood Californian has spent his lifetime perfecting his art of spitting rhymes to a fine beat. As a small kid growing up listening to 2Pac, Puff Daddy and Michael Jackson to name a few, he would take a radio out into the garden and pretend he was performing for a full stadium. After taking some music classes to learn various instruments and music theory, he began meeting with a fellow student who saw his masterful talent.

Recognize this beat?

And this little tune?

And now purely his own

James Figurine - Covers


Here is the nice James Figurine - Covers mix-tape. If your a real fan no preview required.

Click the image and the download will begin. MAGIC.

James Figurine


So, Jimmy Tamborello, i'd say to be one of the kings and founders of this new age electronica scene. This man is a musical guru, teaming up with his brothers to create "Figurine" in the 90's, then continuing his musical career by joining up with friend, Ben Gibbard, sending tracks to each other through the mail from different sides of the world, thus creating The Postal Service, hence the name.  His love for creating music continues as he dreams up two more side projects titled Dntel and James Figurine.


So since i just came across a James Figurine remix album, i'm gonna throw all of James Figurine at you, and save the rest of Tamborello for your eager selves to find.....Or until we dish out more.

Starfucker

Starfucker is probably the greatest indie electro synth pop artists ever known. Ever music library should have a splash of the now dubbed STRFKR. They create all around amazing music, but they also have a knack of making those tunes that you'll never get bored of. Starfucker has been a gem in my library ever since ThatFunk gave me a preview over a year ago. They've recently come out of a long hibernation with a starfucker.bandcamp and a new album Reptilians out March 8th.

Saycet

Saycet started as a one man project of Frenchman Pierre Lefeuvre, who spent much of his days surrounded by the sounds of Boards of Canada and Múm. His first solo album as Saycet, One Day at Home is largely a compilation of abstract landscapes almost fairytale like, in my opinion the perfect sleep soundtrack. Now joinded with Phoene Somsavath and Zita Cochet, a new flavor has evolved to a new experimental pop. Their new album Through The Window is made of discrete vocal samples that breeze in and out with melodies on layered keyboards and detailed electronics,they are nothing short of amazing.
