Andy has been involved w/ a few projects over the years along w/ multiple remixes & his music can be heard in both video games & move trailers. Most recently he has done several Presence albums that work with an app & involves spending time w/ God (kinda like a devotional). Anyways, this has been my fave song from him for years.    … Continued →

Dr. Onionskin has a long and somewhat interesting history. Born Shane Ries, he had a brief career in the 80s in mod and power pop bands (a fact I only recently discovered), but first came into CCM prominence with the oddly effective project Hymn Jim’s Gospel Gems (1995), which fused traditional hymns with dance music. He re-branded a year later as Dr. Onionskin and changed styles to acid jazz, releasing the quirky, instrumental and semi-brilliant Split Pea Soup. Then in 1996 he changed styles again, though still building on jazz-electronica fusions, and emerged with Bully and oh my gosh, what a record!… Continued →

Gerwin Koudijs aka Tresice is an EDM artist from the Netherlands. I have been following his career for many years & one can even find him on Twitter! I played this song under the moniker of DJ Whosoever when used to DJ live with Nuklier Productions. His music is starting to be a rarity as he generated a lot through the old mp3.com platform … Continued →

Incredible news just dropped concerning two classic acts that existed throughout the 90’s, are back! MorZan which is the combination of Mortal and Fold Zandura and featuring the same 2 songwriters/composers/singers/musicians (Jyro and Jerome) that were behind all those now classic albums from both groups. If you know these two groups then you are in the club and you’ll appreciate this news drop. Follow MorZan on social media here (and Instagram) or their official website here. More news coming soon.… Continued →

For a brief moment in the early 1990s, it looked like electronica (or techno, or rave as it was being called at the time) was going to take over popular music. It had a huge following in Christian alternative music for a good two years. Although the synthesizer-driven genre had little to do with the guitar-dominated alt-rock, grunge, and hardcore punk of the era, what it did have in common with those genres was simply being an oddball style of music with which to glorify God.… Continued →

Eric Dunne aka Prophetica made some of the best trance I’ve ever heard. I’ve been looking for one of his songs Denim for years, but this stuff was made back in the old mp3.com days. This is a worship song … Continued →

I’d like to introduce HeavyMind to all of you. It’s a kickback indie pop type duo featuring Teddy Boldt (Teddy At Night) and Mark Campbell. They released a debut song titled “Hold Me” on all digital networks back at the end of May and I guess I somehow missed posting about it. To me at least it sounds like mixing up The Weeknd, Chris Isaac, NYVES, TwentyOnePilots, Cool Hand Luke, and Gotye. It sounds like a weird combo of RIYL artists but that’s my train of thought and what I’m hearing.… Continued →

Instrumental music and Christianity have always shared a wonderfully curious relationship, adding a twist to the age old question, “what makes music Christian (or not)?” While attempting to answer that questions is always interesting, and dare I say, fruitful, it would take up much more time and space than what we are afforded here. Nonetheless, it seems appropriate to quote Johann Sebastian Bach: “The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.”… Continued →

While metallic industrial became the dominant form of industrial music in the mid 90s and beyond, it was the dancier stuff that held my attention better. I liked the heavier stuff too (Circle of Dust, Mortal, Generation) because it gave a new spin on metal, but after the while the genre seemed to blend into one. Industrial-dance, or electro as it’s sometimes called (not to be confused with the hip-hop/funk genre from the 1980s) combined harsh vocals and samples with danceable beats into something altogether different.… Continued →

A-Duff is no Calvin Harris; and coming from me, that’s quite a compliment. Well, at least my perception of Calvin Harris – I’ve never really given him a fair listen. In any case, there’s enough cheese-ball EDM in the world to go around. Some of A-Duff’s material could be on the radio (e.g. “God is Real”), but he clearly values creativity. Opening track “Don’t Stop Believing” kicks things off with an optimistic mood and some groovy brass, while “Block Rocking Flammable” reminds me of playing SSX 3 on PS2.… Continued →

We are introducing you all to a young new group known as Idle Achiever. I’d like to thank Joel Holycross for sharing this group with me.

This is just the beginning for the young group and the potential is definitely there to perfect their craft on into the future.… Continued →

Get a sample of it via Spotify below. This well produced and composed little ep features 5 songs that bridge the divide between indie pop, edm, and what remains of alternative rock.

Everyone is talking about Spotify today because of their initial public offering. So I thought I’d take a minute to share a few of my favorite Spotify playlists with you. 1) New Music Friday Christian by Spotify New Music Friday Christian is just one of Spotify’s many, many, curated playlists. What’s great about this playlist though is every Friday Spotify completely updates it with freshly released new songs. Sometimes that’s a good thing–I mean who doesn’t want to be the first to discover the next big hit?… Continued →

We Are Leo just released the hot brand new track titled “Light Up My World” and it can be heard below. This modern pop/dance song appears on the “God’s Not Dead: A Light In The Darkness” soundtrack which is available now from Dream Label Group. I know this is super pop oriented but there is a certain endearing quality about this song. Great lyrics and fits well with Easter. Stream the song and compilation below.… Continued →
