Other Musicians / Tristan Prettyman

I am sure some of you have heard of her before....
I just saw her recently opening for Jason Mraz and she caught my
ear.  She has a voice that can be perfectly be explained by mixing Cheryl Crow and Chantal Kreviazuk together.  Guitar Chicks are awesome!  She has a 7 track EP out which I purchased and is pretty good.  My favorites are " Evaporated" and " Guest Check" .   She has also been doing a song with Jason Mraz on tour called " Shy that way" which is really awesome and boots of it are available as well so check that song out!

Also Check out her new Album " Twenty Three" released by Virgin Records.  It is a good all around album I recommend it!

Polls / What do you think the next single from Hotel Paper will be?

« on: June 26, 2003, 11:10:18 am »

I think it will be " Breathe" for my own reasons...
my other choice maybe " Love me like that" since it is different and she is going for that approach ( AYHN )
has the new single been announced? *probably too early to be*
what do you think?

Other Musicians / Gangstarr ( Guru and DJ Premier )

« on: June 24, 2003, 05:46:44 pm »

I know that most of you here do not like hiphop but I had to make this thread because this is a group that I respect and love and is beyond musical boundaries...
Some of you here do listen to hiphop such as 50 cent, eminem, fabolous etc...but that is the commercial side of hiphop.  If you wanna know what REAL hiphop is about then you are looking at the right thread...for they are as real as they get.
First of all they are the Kings of Hiphop Longevity..
They have been around since the late 80's and this is their SEVENTH album!
They play no games and just hit with almost every track...
DJ Premier is one of the most prestigious Producers in hiphop today.
He has produced for almost all the great underground MC's and also producing classics For Nas, Biggie ,Jay Z and Yes even Limp Bizkit ( n2gether now )
Guru ( the MC ) has been working on Jazz projects as well as a Old school veteran MC that can hang with the new school MC's ...
They already have a massive Underground hiphop Following and their last LP went Gold ..
Gangstarr has Earned respect for hiphop listeners and hopefully you commerical hiphop listeners can give them a chance and learn what hiphop is supposed to sound like ... Ask Brian I made a Beliver out of him.
Warning :  This is not for the teenie pop music kids wanting the " girl i love you I have 20 inch rims I went to jail 10 times and I carry a nine" Rap music
 :lol:

Give then a Chance ....Their New album is called " The Owners"
some of my favs are " Mass appeal" " Above the clouds" " Work" "Dwyck"
" you know my Steez" and " Capture"

Other Musicians / Chantal Kreviazuk

« on: May 27, 2003, 09:11:03 pm »

ok ok ...
There are alot of female solo artists out there and yeah there are a flood of them.  After listening to so many of them they all have a few good songs on the album and then it is throw away time.  Not with Chantal....from the first listen I knew this album was different.   Most of you probably have heard her single " In this life" already and if you like that I strongly encourage you to buy this album for a few reasons.  First of all it is damn good.  Two, the most you will pay for this CD is 9.99 and I have seen it even for 7.99  
She is not new to the music scene however, but she is new to the US shores I guess, for she has 2 other albums both double platinum according to her site.  She has a unique sound almost unexplainable.  She is a mixture of Sarah Mclachlan, Natalie Imbruglia, Sheryl Crow you name it.  She has the ability to sound different from song to song giving her that variety that keeps the album interesting.  My Favorite songs are " Time" ( suspiciously paralleling our own VC's Ordinary Day) " Waiting" and "Feels like Home"
I have yet to hear her earlier works but this album " What if it all means something" is for sure worth picking up =)
Some of you Jason Mraz fans will be seeing her support him on this summer tour....( like Trish)

Other Musicians / Linkin Park

« on: March 26, 2003, 10:06:28 am »

well most of you know Linkin Park from their Classic Album Hybrid theory since it spawned so many hit singles such as " in the end" , " crawling" , and " papercut".  Their fusion of cutting edge underground hiphop and bouncy rock grooves makes them have a sound that on one has been able to match.  Lots of rock groups try but cannot sound as unique as Linkin Park.  They have 3 albums....Hybrid Theory, Reanimation ( personal fav ) and now Meteora.
As a fan I have to say I wasn't as impressed with Meteora but it is worth picking up.  " Nobody's Listening" is my fav track.   so Check them out if u haven't already.....
