Shad – Flawless

Jul 27, 2011 By naedoo in 2011, Canadian Hip Hop, Singles 1 Comment

New Shad anyone? Canada’s hip hop Prince is featured on The Real Frequency radio show’s new compilation album The New North. Shad is as lyrically dextrous as ever over a slow-burning Frank Dukes beat with cuts by DJ Dopey. Very nice. New album next please.

Shad + Skratch Bastid – Homie

I actually started this post by writing something along the lines of “we don’t just blindly post anything Shad puts out”, but had to start over once I realized that is pretty much exactly what we do. Oh well, I’m pretty sure that if you’re even remotely familiar with Shad’s canon, you’ll hardly blame us.(…)
Listen Up:: Astral Swans

Everyone remembers Astral Swans, right? Okay, good. Matthew Swann’s latest side project was one that caught our ear last year. The open ended, lo-fi melodies are somehow infectious and unassuming but the results speak for themselves. Here’s a kaleidoscope themed representation of Swann playing “You Carry A Sickness” live in an apartment, courtesy of Kaelen(…)
Video Hits:: Dusted, Mike Feuerstack, Jim Guthrie and Leif Vollebekk

Yesterday Shane bogarted my Listen Up style post, so it’s time to issue a little James Brown style big payback. These video hits posts have fallen off our radar as of late, but a few great efforts have landed in the inbox and it’s only right we share them with you. All of these artists(…)
Listen Up:: Reversing Falls

These “Listen Up” posts are usually the Ack’s domain, and truthfully I’m not sure what his main goal is for them, but I’m co-opting his style today because I really want you to listen to the self-titled debut from Montreal’s Reversing Falls. Put on your hyperbole pants for this bit if you must, but I(…)
Contest:: Win 2tix to see Hayden @ The Marquee

Talk about a trip down memory lane. I have such fond memories of seeing Hayden play shows in Halifax that this tour announcement melted my frozen heart instantly. Being a longtime fan, I would happily listen to one of Canada’s greatest song writers play hits from the past, but Mr. Desser’s latest record, Us Alone,(…)
Reviews:: David Myles In the Nighttime

I’m not naïve. With the commercial success that resulted from David Myles and Classified’s last collaboration, the easy sell for Myles will be the companion EP that comes with his latest LP. The duo went back to the lab and Myles let Class create the beats and shape the tone of After the Party. Their(…)
Pick a Piper – Cinders and Dust

Is it possible your Tuesday could use an extra dose of whimsy and wonder? Well you can get both of those from this rather lovely video from Toronto’s Pick A Piper. Animated & illustrated by brothers Graeme and Kyle Reed respectively, the video tells a mesmerizing story of an industrous monk and his mysterious forrest(…)
