….The Light$ are so bright they blind me
GREATeclectic, artist, DJ & editor of the infamous Art & Culture magazine Art Nouveau, will unleash his debut album January 31, 2012. He is giving us the first taste with “#1 Fan,” a roaring dance anthem featuring singer Antonio Stapleton & Canadian based rapper KJ. In the past two years, GREATeclectic has opened up for J*DaVeY, Theophilus London, Taz Arnold in addition to planning events in Atlanta & Miami with the likes of VA$HTIE & Dee & Ricky. From these experiences, he has made an album that touches on the sonic stepping stones he’s used year by year to pave his way to the present. You can head over to his official site to grab the free MP3 of “#1 Fan.”
Spencer Greene aka Savvy Society is a New Jersey born, Atlanta based Producer/DJ who I’ve been familiar with for sometime now. In all actuality, he’s like my little brother from another mother. The self-described ‘anti-hipster’ grew up on house and club music, so it’s no wonder that his sound is sexy a mix of jazzy synths that would make Pharrell coo and banging beats that evoke the tribal thump of both Africa and the fidget bass of Baltimore club music.
Jay Scott says love isn’t fair and Sye Spence agrees. This track has been sitting on my laptop for months collecting computer dust and when it came on randomly on iTunes I decided it was time to post it. As beautiful as Jay and Sye’s voices sound together, this is isn’t your typical love song. More of a twisted one than anything. The Ohio born singer/songwriter is currently working on his next project, a mixtape entitled, The Oddball Mixtape. No word if this track will make the cut, but I thought I’d share it with you anyway. Listen and download “It’s Not Fair,” by Jay Scott & Sye Spence.
