UPCOMING SHOW: Atmosphere, Common, and Grieves at Red Rocks 1/27

If tickets aren't sold out yet, they'll go soon, so get on that. This is the first winter show Red Rocks has ever hosted. Ever. This song is "Guns and Cigarettes" by Atmosphere, off the album Lucy Ford. Slug is one of my favorite MCs ever, and puts on a great show. Grieves is also coming into a style all his own, and is from Colorado. I can't speak for Common, but it's sure to be a great time. http://www.redrocksonline.com/CalendarEventDisplay.aspx?id=158044

SONG OF THE DAY AND UPCOMING SHOW: Murs

  "Love and Appreciate" is off Murs' collab album with 9th Wonder, Murray's Revenge, released in 2005.

Here's a link to the show, see you there! http://coloradospringslivemusic.net/events/The-Black-Sheep.htm?promotion=2189

UPCOMING SHOWS: Shlohmo at Cervantes

Hailing from the incredibly prolific LA Low End Theory scene (think Flying Lotus, Teebs, Samiyam, etc.), this 21 year old producer crafts some of the most mature "dubstep" in the blogsophere right now. Where so many contemporary electronic musicians simply wield The Womp like a weapon in a war against artful restraint, Shlohmo challenges himself and his listeners to transcend the desire for visceral indulgence, opting instead to dwell in the ethereal realm of texture and stasis. If music is sex, then Shlohmo is tantric. Each song is a kind of subtle mediation upon itself; establishing a theme and then asking "why?", his music quickly betrays its own futility while nevertheless insisting upon its beauty. An irrepressible remixer, Shlomo applies this deconstructive tactic to other people's...
