Happy Monday to you all. Thought I'd start the week by reviewing a new hip-hop album. It's by Cadence, one half of the group Raw Produce. Cadence is a producer/DJ/emcee from Massachusetts, he's been doing his thing since 1995 and released the album The Feeling of Now, by Raw Produce, in 2003.

I haven't listened to it yet*, but I did listen to Korn Dogz a couple of weeks back and it's … [read more]
Last week I told you of a new discovery here in Australia; Gotye. You can find that entry here. Anyway, with the extreme power of the internet I managed to speak to Wally a few days ago, he very kindly gave me a copy of his latest album, so I figured it only fair to share my thoughts on the entire record.
If you cast your mind back to last week you'll remember there was a mention of exactly where in the mine-field … [read more]
