MP3 |
|
Jazz |
Nimble-fingered Bickerton leads his trio through an energetic and spirited melody, bursting with frenetic bass and feisty percussion. Lively, bright, and animated jazz for the happiest of hepcats.

Lars Frederiksen & The Bastards |
|
Dead American |
MP3 |
|
Punk |
Rancid’s axe-slinger steps out solo – and all you bastards better be ready! Solid shoutin’ punk from a mofo who knows how to do it right.

Roll On |

|
Punk |
Look out! This is some bloody raucous punkabilly straight outta Melbourne. Like a swift kick in the head, this rowdy rabble rouser (from loud-mouthed Aussie trio) takes no prisoners – literally. Shout along or be damned.

Peanut Butter Wolf |
|
Definition Of Ill |
MP3 |
|
Rap/Hip Hop |
Say “So long!” to Merriam and kick Webster to the curb. Peanut Butter Wolf’s got the only “Definition Of Ill” you’ll ever need. The New Skool of Old School is in session; and it’s time you dropped this knowledge.

|
Jazz |
Subtle, moody, and atmospheric improvisation are the order of the day for percussionist Chad Taylor and cornetist Rob Mazurek, aka Chicago Underground Duo. Lushly soothing chimes lend an organic and Oriental vibe to this hypnotic and acoustic meditation.

Jaheim |
|
Could It Be |
LiquidAudio |
|
R&B |
Fans of silky '70s soul will blast happily to the past on this stylistic and captivating ballad. Jaheim’s vocals are polished to perfection and the classy melody and infectious groove rise miles above the current crop of disposable R&B soundalikes.

Bruce Springsteen |

Born To Run (Live) |
WinMedia |
|
Rock |
A little slower than the album track, but these dudes are getting old so we can forgive 'em. This is still one of the finest slices of American Rock 'n' Roll that was ever written.

Gob |
|
I Hear You Calling |
LiquidAudio |
|
Punk |
Blame Canada! The guys of Gob make a unique brand of punk equal parts catchy and punchy, and dial the speed down a notch on a tune of date denial.
|
Depeche Mode |
|
Dream On |
LiquidAudio |
|
Alternative |
Stripped down, unadorned, and practically unplugged Mode is evocative, haunting, and irresistible. Pretty profound too, as the lyrics warn, "What you take can't kill you, but be careful what you're giving."

My Morning Jacket |
|
At Dawn |
MP3 |
|
Pop |
Fans of the tripped-out Sunflower-era Beach Boys (anybody out there?) should connect with the multilayered melancholia of this power pop songscape from independent Darla imprint. Spector-esque production results in a wall of swooshing sound that suggests a sleepy, Sunday morning sunrise.
