La Musica Coolica #38 (Nirvana)

As with probably half, or even more than half of my generation, one of my all-time favorite rock bands is Nirvana. There is nothing that I can write about them that hasn’t already been written 1000 times over. The song that I’m sharing from them, is not actually a Nirvana, song. It was actually written … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #38 (Nirvana)

La Musica Coolica #37 (DP)

I had kind of forgotten about these guys, until one of my old homies from HS brought them up on FB. So, thanks, Mike!

The compilation is called “Jazzafunkapyschadelic.” It’s … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #37 (DP)

For whatever reason (the exceptional amount of rain is actually probably the reason), we haven’t really … Continue reading APW Friday Shows

La Musica Coolica #36 (Grouch)

The Grouch. This guy is frequently collaborating with Murs, Eligh, Zion I etc.. He has a good organic Hip-hop flow. Grouch doesn’t really have a traditional Hip hop dialect. He pronounces the letter “R” in his lyrics, for example. Grouch tends to get a bit political sometimes, with the lyrics. Some of his stuff, I … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #36 (Grouch)

Cargo

Next Monday and Tuesday evening, I will be covering the Cargo fashion art and music trade show for SoJones. I’m pretty excited about it. So feel free to check out SoJones next week for some hard-hitting photo and literary journalism (the part about “hard-hitting” is tongue in cheek, of course) by yours truly.
