Mercy Choir - Waabaayo


Stay Tuned for new releases from Mercy Choir, including an instrumental Album, a split E.P with Xtrin Arms which will be released on Immigrant Breast Nest Records, a collaboration with Lys Guillorn, and more.

Definitely listen to Waabaayo.  It's a solid record and it was locally produced, something you can be proud of.  It's a good recording.

Personally enjoyed "If I'm Vicious."  It's steady and maintains a  good level of complexity throughout.

New video release by New Haven Artists Choque Kultural "EL Proceso"


 Today Choque Kultural released their newest video "El Proceso"  a #NHV born and breed music duo making real waves in the latin music world both locally and abroad.

BIO  In October 2009 Telemundo's own "Fuego Latino TV" aired a segment in which they introduced a new act to the world known as Choque kultural. Since that push by Fuego Latino, Choque Kultural quickly created a buzz within the music industry with their new sound, which they describe as "electro urban; a blend of reggeaton, house/techno, and hip-hop".

The group is formed by Jay Lee Jordan, artistically known as " El Jordan"; and Jose Crespo artistically known as "Lyricologo".

 Lyricologo, was born March 13th, 1985 in Bayamón, PR. As a child raised in Arecibo, he first heard and was intrigued by the lyrics of the respected rapper, Vico C. Those first rhymes motivated him to become the kind of lyricist he is today. 

"I have had many experiences through my life, and I only wish to transpose those experiences through my lyrics", says Lyricologo.

 El Jordan was born April, 4th 1986 in New Haven, Connecticut USA. At the age of 12, Jordan taught himself how to play the Alto Saxophone and soon found himself playing in both his high school jazz band and his church band. Jordan's interest in music grew into a passion as he got older. 

Jordan says "Music has been the driving force in my life, I can only dream that it will be my destiny"

Their versatility and catchy tunes have paved their path and taken them to performed as supporting acts for Jowell y Randy, Don Chezina, La Makina, Tobby Love, Jayko, Blackpoint, Los Pepes, Luis Miguel del Amargue, Gerry Capo, Sensato, Tito el Bambino & Arcangel at the Calle Ocho Festival in Miami, and Rakim & Ken Y. Choque Kultural is currently focusing on marketing their new single "Humo", featuring K.O "El mas Completo", a song that fans have described as "a break out song".

"Music holds the power to change lives. Our goal is to feed the souls of our fans whether it be through entertainment or moral support". -Choque Kultural

Phemale (Band)

Boasting a massive amount of music on Free Music Archive, much of it actually pretty good, you can get to know this band a little better by giving it a listen.  Hey, maybe there might be a show, and you may not be sure if you want to see the band.  Now you know if you want to see the band.

Krystov

Check the full website
damien krystov.s music exists as a cacophony of electronic mutilation, lying somewhere between classical, drum n bass, idm, and industrial...the soundtrack of his dreams brought to life in his waking hours.

    he attempts to exploit the balance between the world of the real from the dream world in his works. every creative element begins with the idea that there must be contrast to all parts of existence. every opposing element forms symbiotic harmony. mix classical elements with digital noise. mix religion with science. mix the natural world with the manmade world. contrast and balance. day connot exist without night. love cannot exist without hate. dreams cannot exist without experience.

    there is an intrinsic beauty in all things.

    this is krystov.

Lord Fowl

Check out their Myspace
Lord Fowl is a band with a few members, and they make music for the masses to rock their heads off to.  Lately I caught up with a member who was exhausted and gave me a crappy interview.  I needed to edit the content to the point where the conversation is unintelligible.

And that's just the kind of awesome reporting you're going to get, here on the townie music blog.

Members Vechel "Hollywood" Jaynes -guitar/vocals Mike Pellegrino -guitar/vocals John Conine -bass Donald Freeman -drums




PLAY MAGAZINE: "Lord Fowl, Endless Dynamite- Fuckin' yeah! Go get in your GTO and pop this shit in the tape deck and tear up the asphalt with a head full of cheap gin. You think you know rock? You don't. This is balls hangin', no apologies, straight out the box power with just enough of a '70s dirty groove to it. Three guys with a local music pedigree that goes back a few years pile on the "oomph" and fire it up. Think power trio means Rush? Sit down and thanks but no. This is more along the lines of Kyuss or Fu Manchu with a Thin Lizzy/Cactus slant (LF does a mighty swell take on the TL classic Rocky on this disc). If you are a "stoner metal/rock" fan you'll dig this (even though this ain't that at all). If you are older and don't think music has gotten any better than that one Zeppelin record with the old dude on it, you'll dig this (even though this ain't that at all). 11 tunes of heavy but melodic, girthy hard rock. A 454 big block engine of a record. Standout Track: Damn. Tough choice. I'll go with Lids 'cause it makes me think of speeding through the backwoods roads of my hometown, listening to Sabbath and packing a bowl." ----Craig Gilbert 



FROM STONERROCK.COM: "Connecticut's Lord Fowl is what you would end up with if you distilled the musical essences of Thin Lizzy and Fu Manchu into liquid form, then vigorously stirred them together until it becomes a single, volatile cocktail. Usually I hate to resort to such sweeping comparisons in the first sentence of a review, but if the shoe fits like a glass slipper on Cinderella, then why not run with it, right? Just listen to the blown out groove of Endless Dynamite's opener, "Cheetah," once the band kicks it into full gear. Or check out the orgasmic ending of "Coming Down Easy," with its slick and sexy harmony guitars that break into a wild, unrestrained, Guitar-mageddon finale. And while the guitars certainly get their time in the spotlight, it'd be downright mean not to mention how good the rest of the performances are. The bass lays down a funky but solid groove, and breaks out of the pocket into tastefully aggressive melodies at just the right times. The drums are also best described as tasteful, seasoning with the obligatory cowbell and tom rolls when the opportunity arises, but never overdoing it. The vocals have that retro swagger that Lenny Kravitz would kill a man in front of his own mama to cop, and rang from deep, soulful croons to near Cornelian wails. The production is warm and full, with just the right amount of psychedelic flourishes and other ear candy. Still not convinced that these cats are the bastard children of Phil Lynott and Scott Hill? A dead-on cover of the Liz's "Rocky" seals the deal AND puts some icing on the cake for those of us who have only our worn out copies of Live and Dangerous to show for our misspent youth.

String-quartet powered rock music.

Where Have You Played?
We've played Cafe Nine a few times, the East Rock Festival, and even a PTA fundraiser this past month.  We're looking to play out more in different clubs - I'm especially interested in The Space in Hamden and seeing if we can get some gigs in other local venues in town.
