ORPHANED LAND from Israel is probably the only band from this country ever able to build up a huge following among Muslims and Arabian people that communicate freely via the bands social networking pages.

The Envision - Tchay's Second Portable Handheld Gamecube


- The Envision - Today, on Christmas, I present you all with my second portable gamecube as a tribute to the best gaming console ever. The Gamecube Envision is the successor to the Ccube. It took roughly 7 months to make and was inspired by Sifuf's Sixty Free Lite-R. Unlike the Ccube, this portable gamecube runs ENTIRELY off of batteries (wall power is an option though) and has NO disc drive. Instead it features the Wiikey Fusion which runs gamecube games off of an SD card. It can play ALL gamecube games perfectly except for Luigi's Mansion (the modding scene is working on this). This portable can also play SOME N64 games, the whole SNES and NES library, and probably some other older consoles. The N64 games are ISO files on my SD card that use the emulator from Zelda: Collectors edition, which ran two N64 zelda games on the gamecube. Thus they are full speed. This portable also uses Progressive Scan via the official Component Cable for the Gamecube. And it looks beautiful.

The Civil Wars - "Barton Hollow": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


In some ways, music doesn't get much more modest or minimalist than it is in the hands of The Civil Wars, a duo comprised of California-to-Nashville transplant Joy Williams and her Alabaman partner, John Paul White. They travel without a backup band, and on their first full-length album, Barton Hollow, the bare-bones live arrangements that fans hear on the road are fleshed out with just the barest of acoustic accoutrements. Each song is an intimate conversation, and no third wheels or dinner-party chatter are going to interrupt that gorgeous, haunting hush.

Los Rakas - "Soy Raka": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


There are groups that come along and change the way we listen, appreciate and connect to music. Hailing from Panama but now residing in California, Los Rakas blends Hip-Hop, Plena, Reggae and Dancehall music with Spanish and English lyricism creating songs that leave your head noddin' and body rockin.' Los Rakas (DunDun and Rico AKA Filthy Rich) tag team the mic with a tenacity reminiscent of old school veterans in the game and the passion of the newer artists on the scene. 2010 was a flagship year for the group, winning the Latin Alternative Music Conference's (LAMC) Jack Daniel's 'Discovery Artist' prize in New York City (an award that goes to the most promising group at the conference and the first time awarded to an urban group), with endorsements from Gibson Guitar and SHURE; culminating with their breakout performance at The Bowery Ballroom with a 6 piece band. The duo played alongside Manu Chao, Cypress Hill and Erykah Badu at the unprecedented, Smoke Out Festival and opened the 'How The Grouch Stole Christmas' tour in December 2010 for 18 sold-out shows with Living Legend's The Grouch and Rhymesayer's Brother Ali. Tastemakers like the FADER, XLR8R Magazine, Okayplayer to more traditional outlets like The New York Times & National Geographic have hailed the group. Their hit summer single of 2010, 'Abrazame' ft Favi (Uproot Andy Hold Yuh) {a latin take on the Gyptian 'Hold Yuh' smash} is currently in rotation at 106 KMEL (San Francisco) and La Mega 97.9 (New York <b>...</b>

Fool's Gold - "Surprise Hotel" - SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artist


Fools Gold is a Los Angeles collective that weaves together western pop aesthetics with African rhythms and melodies. The group started as a side project of two young LA musicians, vocalist/bassist Luke Top and lead guitarist Lewis Pesacov, who set out to explore their shared love of various forms of African music (specifically Congolese, Ethiopean, Eritrean and Malian), Krautrock, and 80s dance influenced pop music. They quickly wrote a few inspired songs and asked friends, friends of friends and even strangers to join them on stage.

The Low Anthem - "Charlie Darwin" - SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artist


The Low Anthem combines folk and blues arrangements with the elegance of chamber music and the fervor of gospel. Much of Oh My God is hushed and hymn-like, but the trio throws a clamorous curve with raw, stomp-and-holler tracks like The Horizon Is a Beltway and its version of Home Ill Never Be, a Jack Kerouac song passed via Tom Waits. Members Ben Knox Miller, Jeff Prystowsky, and Jocie Adams—all students of classical composition—bring a wide range of individual interests to the band. Prystowsky is a scholar of baseball, jazz, and American history. Adams, a classical composer and technical wizard, spent summers working an infrared spectrometer at NASA. And Miller, principle songwriter, painter, and general ruminator, can indeed expound upon the theories of Charles Darwin. They have a formidable work ethic, along with the ability to laugh at their maniacal intensity.

Fences - "Girls With Accents": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


Fences summarizes Mansfield's music in succinct, compelling fashion—no simple feat, considering that his sound doesn't fit neatly in any single box. He speaks with audible affection of '80s innovators like the Cure, Kate Bush, and Morrissey, icons who created a consummate, all-encompassing aesthetic, just as he aspires to do with Fences. A close listen to the rhythm tracks on several cuts also underscores Mansfield's love of down-tempo classic country. An anthology of Johnny Cash's Sun Records sides was one of his constant soundtracks while working as a dishwasher. "The tempo of that material just has a unrelenting drive," he reflects. "It carries the lyrics from start to finish before you even realize what has been said." Further enriching his sound, Mansfield also has a powerful affinity for jazz, citing John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and Wayne Shorter among his favorites. "Sometimes that music is just so chaotic, which is what growing up feels like," he observes. "I always wondered why more confused teenagers didn't listen to jazz. The girl you're in love with doesn't love you back? Go home and put on Charlie Parker playing 'Embraceable You.'" Later he studied at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Sometimes Mansfield's jazz background is reflected in something as simple as augmenting a minor chord with a major seventh, but Berklee also sold him on the value of commitment and discipline. Hence Mansfield's laser-like focus on achieving his goals. "I appreciate the <b>...</b>

The Jezabels - "Mace Spray": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


Few bands have made more of the past 12 months than Sydney quartet The Jezabels. Since releasing their second EP, She's So Hard, in November 2009, the four-piece have toured the country supporting Tegan & Sara, Katie Noonan and Josh Pyke, and as headliners in their own right (selling out shows nationally in the process). They've watched Hurt Me, the lead single from She's So Hard, receive heavy rotation on radio in Australia and abroad, a feat also achieved by its follow-up, Easy To Love. Fittingly, The Jezabels have seen their fanbase grow every step of the way -- sometimes in the most unexpected places. "I think the biggest spin-out was when someone from Germany sent us a YouTube clip of them dancing to one of our songs," grins 23-year-old vocalist Hayley Mary. There have been lessons learned along the way. The constant touring has, says 24-year-old keyboardist Heather Shannon, made the band -- completed by guitarist Sam Lockwood (24) and drummer Nik Kaloper (25) -- much tighter. Sharing the stage with Tegan & Sara, they learned how to work the biggest rooms of their career. Best of all, the long hours travelling betweens gigs and the routine of performing every night has solidified the band's understanding of what it is that makes them tick. "I think we have a more consolidated idea of ourselves," nods Mary. Which brings us to The Jezabels' new EP, Dark Storm. The third and final release in a trilogy of EPs that began with 2009's The Man Is Dead, its five songs <b>...</b>

Ham Sandwich - "Ants": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


Some rock bands fret too much about the successful fusion of commerce and creativity. Some rock bands think they can second-guess the music fan by blending strategies for world domination with mix-and-match, catch-all music. Ham Sandwich, however, instinctively react to rock music more than spending too much time thinking about it -- which is nowhere near as bad as it might sound -- and it is this that marks them out as one of the best Irish rock acts of recent years. Ham Sandwich have been around and about in one very interesting shape or another since 2003, but it wasn't until the autumn of 2005 -- with the release of their debut single, 'Sad Songs' -- that they began to be known outside their home county of Meath. The band formed, says singer/guitarist Podge McNamee, due to founding member/bass player Johnny Moore's creative urge to be always one step ahead of the posse. Balancing ambition and risk is a tricky thing to get right, but with Moore's astute knack for understated, engaging craft and McNamee's liking for juggling quirk, strangeness and charm, stability reigned supreme. "I'd always had an urge to be in a band," says Podge, whose early ambitions lay in stand-up comedy, "and although up to that point I'd done nothing to show that I could be in a band, Johnny thought there was something about me that made him think I could be. I think he liked the fact that I could be anything at all."

Pustki - "Lugola": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


The Warsaw based PUSTKI (The Empties) perform music which is emotional, unpredictable and of a noble simplicity. They play songs which are very melodic on one hand, and raw, on the other. The archaic sound of instruments may remind us of the rebellious groups of the 60's and 70's, but the compositions and arrangements sound quite modern. The four released albums gave them quite a huge following among fans in Poland. Another face of the band are soundtracks and music composed for theatre plays. The band described its work in an artistic manifesto as MUSIC OF EASTERN EUROPE. First album of the band, entitled "Studio Pustki", was released in 2001 by an independent punk label Antena Krzyku and was distributed also in USA and Czech Republic by Tamizdat. The CD got very good reviews and the group was labeled as one of the most promising new bands on the Polish indie scene. In June 2004, after releasing next album, entitled "8 ohm", the group toured with No Means No as a special guest of the legendary band (the Canadians bought "Studio Pustki" during their previous visit to Poland). Autumn of 2008 brought their third album "Koniec Kryzysu", which turned out to be the most successful of the band's releases, containing several hit singles and having the best reception from the music press in the history of the band.

The Kills - "Satellite": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


The Kills are an alternative rock duo formed by American vocalist Alison "VV" Mosshart and British guitarist Jamie "Hotel" Hince that rose to public recognition at the dawn of the hype surrounding the genre explosion of the early 2000s. Mosshart had been in the Florida punk band Discount and Hince in British rock band Scarfo. When these groups disbanded, the duo, who first met when Mosshart heard Hince practicing in the hotel room above hers, struck up a songwriting partnership. For months, the pair air mailed work tapes across the Atlantic; after this proved to test the patience of both artists, as it took days or weeks to get each others tapes, Mosshart upped sticks from her Florida home to fly to London. Wanting to cut themselves off from their pasts, Mosshart and Hince considered their new project to be Year Zero in their careers, so they renamed themselves "VV" and "Hotel" respectively and began writing sparse, minimalist songs together with the aid of a drum machine. In 2001 they showcased their new songs on a well received demo tape. In true punk rock fashion, however, the pair shunned approaches from major record labels. Recording as VV and Hotel, they contributed the song "Restaurant Blouse" to the compilation If the Twenty-First Century Did Not Exist, It Would Be Necessary to Invent It. Shortly after this they recorded their debut release, the Black Rooster EP, which saw release on British indie label Domino Records and was picked up for distribution by Dim Mak <b>...</b>

Following on from very early performances while the band was still finding its feet, one of the main Brazilian newspapers, Folha de Sao Paulo, gave them rave reviews and they were instantly elevated to front cover status. This sort of exposure is like gold dust and propelled the fivesome into the limelight and a string of high profile performances as well as a lucrative and mutually beneficial use of the track Just Do It by Levi's Music for a sponsorship deal, which included the production of a video.

Mumiy Troll - "Paradise Ahead" - SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artist


Mumiy Troll (pronounced Moo-me Troll) is undoubtedly the most significant band that modern Russia has produced since the fall of the Soviet regime. They have made their mark with startling albums and live performances that are bursting with energy, combining warmth and total debauchery. What exactly does the band sound like? Consider the term ROCKAPOPS. Contemporary Russian music is actually divided into what was before and what came after Mumiy Troll. Band founder, frontman Ilya Lagutenko, defined their music style as "rockapops" just to avoid pointless Russian media debates on the definition of what is rock and what is pop. Mumiy Troll became the leader of an entire new musical trend, copied now to greater or lesser degree by Russian wannabees and mainstream artists.

Ok Sweetheart - "All We Have": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


OK Sweetheart — A group reminiscent of all the good things from mid-century pop, splits their time between San Francisco, Denton, and Brooklyn. Their well crafted simplicity pulls influence from classics such as Harry Nilsson, The Zombies, and Randy Newman. Formerly creating under the namesake of singer / songwriter Erin Austin, OK Sweetheart's uniquely pop sound is the result of an eclectic collaboration with members of Midlake, Elizabeth and the Catapult, The Polyphonic Spree, and Via Audio.

Edwyn Collins - "Do It Again": SXSW 2011 Showcasing Artist


The first the world heard of Edwyn Collins was in February 1980 with the release of Falling And Laughing. The debut single by his band, Orange Juice, it was also the first offering from Postcard Records, the independent label Edwyn co-founded with Alan Horne, run from the latter's sock drawer in a former Red Light district in Glasgow's West End. As a record, Falling And Laughing was a hopeless cacophony of shrill guitars and an inexplicably loud bass drum pedal. But as a song, it was a sublime celebration of unfulfilled ardour to a tune that aimed to bridge the chasm between The Velvet Underground and Chic. In the age of New Romantics, Edwyn arrived as a Real Romantic, one unafraid to simultaneously embrace "the pleasure with the pain".
