Bandcamp – discover new music and pay the artists

Since grooveshark isn’t available in germany any more, i had to find other ways to find and listen to new music. So i “discovered” bandcamp and i love it. It’s too easy to find new music and buy it. And quite often you can set a price yourself, also all money goes directly to the musicians, which i think is great. I spent a lot of money on CDs because i don’t want to rip off fellow artists, but how much of what i paid actually makes it to them? I guess it’s not much.
Here’s what i bought in the last three weeks.

Grita Goldstein – Grita Goldstein (free)

Darren Korb – Bastion OST
Blue Sky Archives – Plural & Blue Sky Archives EPs
Eaten by bears – teeth
Ben Caplan & the casual smokers – in the time of the great remembering
I Build Collapsible Mountains – The Spectator & The Act
The Oh Hello’s – The Oh Hello’s
Kasper Rosa – First Breath. First Blood. & Coronal Mass Ejection

Fela Soul – Fela Kuti & De La Soul

a 9 track hip-hop album with lyrics from De La Soul & Redman for free, all you have to give up is an e-mail adress to which the download-link is send. But of course you can listen to the full album before.

What do you get when you put together afrobeat legend Fela Kuti and rap pioneers De La Soul? You get Fela Soul; a musical tapestry created by Gummy Soul artist Amerigo Gazaway. More than just a clever title, Fela Soul is an 8-track, 33 minute journey into the world of afrobeat rhythms, funky horn riffs, and classic hip-hop gems. Using dozens of hand-picked samples from the Nigerian instrumentalist and political figure Fela Kuti, and 8 carefully-chosen acapellas from the Native Tongue rap trio De La Soul, Amerigo seamlessly intertwines the two into something completely new and original.

Bandcamp info:

Billie Holiday is my muse. Her creative vision and stylistic integrity have influenced both my music and my writing. When I decided to work on this project, I wanted to approach it with respect for her music. I wanted these remixes to be both inspired by and dedicated to the life and craft of one of the most innovative and soulful singers of all time. Each track is designed to represent a significant part of Billie Holiday’s life.

Thank you for listening,

L’Orange
