DJ Victorious brings us this Chambermusik exclusive mix CD featuring the best of Allah Real's soulful singing work with Wu-Tang, and also a few rare mixes, unreleased songs, and an assortment of classic treats. Definite collectors item here, a must have for any true Hip-Hop head. Produced by Tru-2-Life, Buddha Monk, Agent Stealth, DJ Mathematics, Allah Real, The Highest Power, Little Shoes.
Many hooks and hit songs have been graced by the vocal stylings and writing of Blue Raspberry. She was down with Wu since the beginning, and after years of dues paying she finally strikes out on her own to show the world what Blue is all about! Production is by Bronze Nazareth, G-Clef da Mad Komposa, NLZ, Dox, AZA, K Slack, Soul, & Blue Raspberry herself!
Reknowned alto saxophonist Joey "G-Clef" Cavaseno puts "wood to metal" in this extremely unique journey through the music of the Pop/Rock band Evanescence here fully transformed into an intimate acoustic setting. G-Clef plays Amy Lee's soaring vocal melodies, backed by the sonoric tapestries of jazz legends guitarist William Ash (Tribute to Wes Montgomery) and acoustic bassist Peter Hartmann (Yalloppin' Hounds).
Check out the sounds of a truly great female vocalist, currently featured with the Yalloppin' Hounds, Gill Palette, doing her own thing here, along with her dad, Saxman/Composer Frank Palette. Gill is a warm, incredible singer, who may remind you of a combination of Sade and Astrud Gilberto, yet she is completely original. Joey "G-Clef" Cavaseno says, "Frank Palette and Shannon Shor have come up with some of the best new standards I have ever heard... Their CD should be supported on talent and originality alone, but its also great music!" This album has some danceable jazz, but borders on Romantic Easy Listening, the ballads are breathtaking, and it's definitely chock full of songs that will stay with you for a long time.
RAYZD is the new name of a band formerly called G-Clef and da Houndz, which was the hip-hop pop oriented Phoenix that rose from the ashes of the Neo Swing Movement of the turn of the milennium! But trust us you never heard a band like this before... they are 100% original, combining real musical skills with real rhymes, lyrics, and beats to form the most exciting new movement in music on this planet!
Japanese 'Otaku' culture is growing by leaps and bounds, and is becoming the next big movement to sweep American Culture. Anime and Video Games are more often becoming valid modes for artistic expression in the area of music. Composer/Producer G-Clef da Mad Komposa and his band Rayzd embark on perhaps the first serious interpretation of some of Otaku culture's best music, most notably Japanese composer Yoko Kanno (Cowboy Bebop/Escaflowne), as well as others. A Landmark project featuring many different instrumentations, even two Big Band tracks!
With this new album, The Great Recession, bandleader/songwriter/arranger G-Clef da Mad Komposa decided it was time to unleash a brand new classic for the times, entitled, "The Great Recession". "I wanted to invoke the mood of the Great Depression days but update it to what people around the world are feeling now, re-examining the deeply rooted connection between Swing Music and Hip-Hop," explains G-Clef. Featured on this excursion again are G-Clef (Wu-Tang), Lord Sledge (The Toasters) and Peter Hartmann, as well as new female vocalist/discovery Leigh Vaiano, who will make listeners swear they are listening to a living Ella Fitzgerald once again. Easily the most fully produced Hounds album yet, "Great Recession" will disintegrate all previously existent boundaries between listener, dancer, and the music itself. Available in CD and digital formats!
