Don Esco – Monday Through Sunday (Lost Records)
It’s been a while since we had a hip-hop artist on our pages. Somehow this genre always gets under the rug for no particular reason. Luckily, I recently received a debut by a very talented rapper who can pair even some renowned names in the genre. Don Esco is an American rapper, songwriter, record executive…

There are many tremendous artists out there that decided to showcase their talent during the quarantine. Who knows when we would hear their music if there weren’t a current pandemic to push them to write, compose, record, produce their music.

David Christy Jones – Welcome To Virology
The only positive thing about this situation with a pandemic is that creativity blooms inside creative minds, musicians, and artists.

David Christy Jones is one of those musicians who wisely spent…

Gisaza – Assassin 12″ EP (PDV Records / DeepEnd!)
Gisaza is a mysterious dubstep outlet presumably originating from Ljubljana, Slovenia. The enigmatic producer refuses to reveal his true identity and solely focuses on his musical expression to articulate with the broader auditorium. Gisaza’s slightly grimy approach to dubstep sound goes beyond the boundaries of the genre itself, mainly because of the comprehensive collection of…

The Macrotones – Unknown Outpost CD (Music ADD)
Unknown Outpost is the third full-length album by The Macrotones. If you have previously visited our pages, you probably stumble upon our reviews about First Signs Of Danger CD and Darvaza 12”. Boston’s finest afrobeat ensemble unquestionably defies the fundamentals of the genre by thoroughly exploring other musical interests of the involved musicians. Therefore, their…
