![]() As we continue support the Future of House Music these cats have been doing there thing the past few years we welcome PolyRhythm with open arms to the Seed Family!! Uruguay is a relatively small country in South America that is usually not in the world's spotlight but with its recent World Cup run, people are starting to take notice. What Uruguay lacks in size it makes up for in culture. At the center of that culture, is El Tambor or the Drum. The Tambor EP has been inspired by this culture and the live drums used are authentic Uruguayan quintos made in Uruguay. The EP also tries to capture the Charrua Spirit of the culture by replicating the native flute sounds used by the Charrua people. The Charrua's are the native americans of Uruguay who were known for their warrior spirit and traditional wooden flute music. Take a listen and experience the blend of Uruguayan culture with the new age sound. Hope you enjoy. Esteban Fernandez would like to dedicate this performance to his dad Milton Fernandez who taught him everything he knows about El Tambor. ** Cover image is an actual photograph of Uruguayan Drums being fire-tuned before a drum session.

Buy the Vinyl Release here: http://www.juno.co.uk/products/402558-01.htm ![]() DJN Project a.k.a Ruben Vidal & Rick Galactik have been blazin' the scene as of late with their signature sound of R&B smoothness mixed with a taste of soulful house, their style has been noticed by many labels including ours and with this release it's a no brainer as to why we would not wanna release it. Joell Ortiz has been blazin' the Hip-Hop world by storm with his incredible lyrical skill and has showcased it on 2 radio heavy jams like Nissan, Honda, Chevy & his strong solo debut single Call Me, It was with this heat DJN Project decided to collaborate with Joell and he happily got on board his first ever soulful house jam, so Thank You Joell, Koch Records and DJN Project for making this possible. I picked up the release from the duo and I'm pleased to make this the first of two as I thought it fit our label perfectly with the direction we were heading and the style that we liked, Rick's songwriting skills continue to get better and not to mention his vocal style and Ruben's productions improve by every project he takes on, you can see this clearly by the Hip-Houseish style he gives to the original mix. On the remix tip Nef Nunez delivers a great party starting version which will definitely get any event, club or lounge up and dancing while Bradford James takes you on a trippy dub mix which would go nicely with eclectic sets for those who prefer eclectic style grooves. Myself & Reelsoul do what we do best but here we emphasize on Rick's Overdubs and Joell Ortiz's 16 bar rap to really take you into the soul of the song. With many styles and tools included in this release, we hope you find something in this package that suits who you are and what you do regardless if it's in clubs, on the internet or simply for your listening pleasure, Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to SOLE channel Music's 25th release. Peace, Mr.V. [BUY/LISTEN] Blast From The Past: Lichiban Interview 05/26/2010
Bradford James has been one of the defining figures on Boston's underground soulful house music scene along with other major players, such as DJ Bruno, Bob Diesel, Cruzz, KC Hallett, and Soul Revival's Adam Gibbons. With partners, Deknology and Oveous Maximus, he has founded SEED (Soul Enters Every Dancer) Recordings which released a number of gems in the past years. As a performer, he has Dj'ed parties all over New England, Boston, Montreal, Toronto, New York City, Philadelphia, Miami, Amsterdam, Phoenix AZ, and Detroit. In the past he has played parties with Master Kev (Defected/NYC), Lars Behrenroth (XM Radio LA), Andy Ward (Defected, UK), Glen Underground (Chicago), Mike "Agent X" Clark (Detroit), Rudy C (LA), Jesse Outlaw (LA), Hali Toronto), Uzi (Montreal), Ray Bones (Detroit), Joe Dipadova (Phoenix, AZ), Lola & E-MAN (NYC), Dj Bruno (Boston), Louis Benedetti (NJ), Joey Mazza (NJ), MSG (NYC), Joeski & Onionz (NYC), Alix Alvarez (NYC), Santos (Phoenix), Michelle Weeks (NJ), KT Brooks (NJ), Dawn Tallman (NJ), Unified Spirits (NJ) to name a few. Bradford's creative drive never ceases to inspire me. When he is not recording, or spinning at his monthly Seed in the City event, he is busybringing you the freshest soulful house tunes on a number of different internet radio stations (for a schedule, check his website). What's evident to me is that his seemingly bottomless source of creativity and musical talent will take him to places he's aiming to be at. If you plant the seed of a dream with the right attitude and commitment, it can grow into anything you want it to be...a record label, nightly events, a community...you ask. read more ![]() Dope new e.p. that I have had the honor of being part of...

![]() Novalima - Mandinga (Seed In The City Edit) Edit by: Bradford James & Cesar Pena Buy The Album: http://www.amazon.com/Afro-Novalima/dp/B000BOWT3Q ![]() Creative Boston-area musicians (all genres), DJs, spoken word, vocalists, and other performers will participate in a unique sculptural sound project at MassArt’s Stephen D. Paine Gallery. Chicago-based artist Juan Angel Chávez will install a multi-directional, multi-layer sound experience available for performances from September 23 to November 22. Comprised out of found material seen everyday, such as old billboard signs, wood panel siding and traffic cones, the large-scale speaker sculpture will turn the gallery into a laboratory for sound. A diverse schedule of music genres performed from inside and outside of the speaker sculpture has been programmed by the Curatorial Programs Department at MassArt. The interactive sculpture is large enough to ensconce a 5-piece band inside and host over 250 audience members around the structure. During moments when no performance is scheduled, visitors are allowed to enter the sculpture and investigate sounds of their own. Specifications of the Performance Space The speaker project is a room that measures 25 ft in length, 16 ft in width and 10 ft in height. The sculpture contains four surfaces designed to be played and/or modify sound. On the two sides of the work, there are handcrafted speaker cones that measure 8 ft in diameter to an 18-inch point. One wall is made up entirely of traffic cones to amplify or muffle sound. Another wall contains a section of PVC pipes, glass bottles, sheet metal and other objects meant to be tapped to make different sounds. read more... |
