So I’ve really wanted the weekends to be a time when I try and upload some sort of music onto this blog and I’ve been trying to decide the best way to go about it and here’s what I’ve decided. I feel like there are a lot of different ways out there to figure out what’s new in music and what’s popular, hip, in, however you want to say it. I don’t want this to turn into some blog where I act as some authority on everything that has just recently been released and try to tell you which of it is good/bad/or even worth listening to so instead what I think would be cool is just basically post what I’ve been listening to a lot lately, old or new. This isn’t some indie blog where I’m only concerned with the shit that no one’s heard yet and most likely if anyone does up checking this blog out they will have heard some of the music I put up, or maybe not. That’s what I think is fun, putting up music that other people might find interesting and hopefully expanding perspectives on where good music can be found. I can’t imagine only listening to one genre of music and as much as I respect people that are really involved in one genre and have an amazing amount of knowledge about that scene, I think it’s really important to try and expose yourself to a variety of sounds if only to at least hear what else is out there for you.
That being said, and sorry if that was somewhat ranty, here’s a sick hip-hop group from Japan that seems to respect the roots and brings the Beastie Boys, Run D.M.C vibe to their style, but they are still being pretty innovative with their beats and rhyming. I don’t have any idea what they’re saying, but god damn it sounds sick. So give this shit a listen, cause I think it’s worth the time. Check out their myspace for more music too.
