Junk Food (free album download - Hip-Hop)

Download "Junk Food" Album from Bandcamp

My buddy Ray, a.k.a. Metafisix is on fire!!! A little while ago he ended up co-releasing a sweet sounding remix of Gotye's "Somebody I Used to Know."

This time around, Metafisix has teamed up with producer Junkie Jay to make the album "Junk Food" (March 2012).  Right now, this is some of my favorite sounding stuff coming from El Paso. I think they really hit some nice music/lyrical combinations on many of the tracks. I'm particularly fond of several tracks on the album including: "Blame the Music," "Stars," and "Time Flies." While all of the songs are worth listening to, these several fall under my own specific tastes and quite honestly, I've been playing them on repeat the last week or so. "Stars" for example is brilliantly done and simply just damn catchy -Metafisix' words move so fluidly with a well written instrumental piece. If you haven't done so already, you should go and download this album!

Let me know what you think ^_^

Gotye feat. Metafisix and Kimbra - "Somebody I Used to Know" (DJ Kue Remix)

I've realized that my philosophy to music listening/enjoyment isn't exactly the same as others (which is totally acceptable, by the way. I wouldn't accept anything less). While I have my favorite artists and genres, I simply have to be exploring for new music constantly.  I have several websites where I'm always taking music suggestions, but mostly I really love to see how artists approach, create, and sometimes re-create material. When it comes to music, I really love it when people can get together and collaborate. I'm talking about original content, avant garde-genre defining, enigmatic, "mashups," remixes (see my "Rainy Dayz" post, for example), "bootlegs," homages, and so on.

My buddy Ray, a.k.a. Metafisix worked with DJ Kue to make a very enjoyable remix of Gotye's "Somebody I used to Know" feat. Kimbra. You can listen to the original here: Somebody I Used to Know. I had first heard this track during one of my very own "musical safaris," and happened to really enjoy both the song and video very much. I was amazed to first hear of my friend working on a remix project with this awesome teaser video released last week on facebook:

                                         

Make sure to support both artists, Dj Kue, who you can find on his website, and Metafisix, who is a member of Fuyaradio.
