MobiusCollective Collaboration with Street Artist RIMX on Brooklyn based Project “16 Barras”

***********************Recent Releases within the Collective Ciphers*********************** Prince Polo_ Brooklyn Bodega Producer Prince Polo’s latest full-length, Brooklyn Bodega, features heavy dub soundscapes and bass EQ deeper than the Pacific Ocean. Flashes of reggae, Latin and Italian sounds drift through the record, crafting a portrait of the borough’s ethnically diverse population. ***************************************************************************************************************** With each song on Right On Time, the multi-national songstress weaves a compelling full-length album textured with soul-stirring guitar melodies and riveting funk, which to the virgin listener, sounds influenced by the likes of Jill Scott, India.Aire, Alicia Keys. Right On Time is an original mix of soulful material and sounds bringing this message through her funk. It’s where Switzerland meets New York and Los Angeles, an experience in soul you’re yet to experience. It’s CLASS, it’s STYLE, it’s PAOLA JEAN. Writers: I-CED & Paola Jean 11.11.11 Produced by Ced No & Fantastic Machine additional production by Evan Bourgeois Lasry Mobius Collective: Troy Simms on Saxophone, Omar Little on Trumpet Background vocals: Larae Gainey & Loren Oden Engineered by Ian Nickus and Jamal Coleman Mixed by Ian Nickus ***************************************************************************************************************** Jahdan Blakkamoore~ Babylon Nightmare http://www.thefader.com/2010/11/09/video-premiere-jahdan-blakkamoore-all-comes-back-to-one/ ***************************************************************************************************************** Break Science Free Album Download Link “Further Than Our Eyes Can See” Raised in the cultural hotbed of New York City, Break Science’s Adam Deitch and Borahm Lee fuse the city’s rich musical legacy–jazz, funk, soul– with a deep-rooted connection to its hip-hop heritage to create their own take on modern electronic music. Break Science’s new EP, Further Than Our Eyes Can See, consists of thought-provoking, highly-textured, bass-pumping songs that include verses from some of today’s most conscious artists: Brooklyn’s Talib Kweli and Jahdan Blakkamoore, Sierra Leone’s Bajah and India’s Falu. ***************************************************************************************************************** Dj SUJiNHO~ The Rent Is Too Damn High mp3. http://thebtownblog.com/ ***************************************************************************************************************** Taylor McFerrin_ Early Riser Sampler Taylor  McFerrin’s three track preview is a sample of what we can expect on his  full-length release, but it’s also a peek at what the multi-faceted  producer can do. Give him a style and he can run with it. “Place In My  Heart” as original as it is for its hypnotic spiral of singer Ryat’s  vocals, there’s a wurlitzer chord buried underneath that sounds like a  nod to Stevie Wonder’s “All I Do.” Then beyond the vertigo of all the  instruments he plays himself, the third teaser in the mix dives into  some UK dubstep, another sign of his worldly appeal which has been  recognized by Benji B and Gilles Peterson. What will he do next? If  there’s a way to randomly tool with Bobby McFerrin’s (no relation?)  one-hit wonder, then we’ll be happy too.  -FADER Read more: http://www.thefader.com/2010/08/30/preview-taylor-mcferrins-early-riser-album/#ixzz11Sg3eNPO ***************************************************************************************************************** phantom lover_ Mauve EP

Earth Amplified_Full Length Earth Amplified, the new full-length release from Seasunz + J.Bless, is set for release on June 21, 2010. This seminal Green Hip Hop album features lyrics that touch on many of the environmental and socio-political issues of the day, highlighted by Oakland-based frontman Seasunz, who uses his virtuoso vocals to move effortlessly between melodic narratives, hardcore rap, double-time flow, reggae, and blues styles. Produced by Brooklyn-based J.Bless and multi-instrumentalist Golden Horns, the organic sound of Earth Amplified’s heavy, layered beats blend influences ranging from afrobeat, dancehall, funk and old school soul with the jazz vibes of Golden Era Hip Hop. ***************************************************************************************************************** Kassiano NOSSA Green Velvet Remix_Soundcloud link NOSSA Music ***************************************************************************************************************** Guitarist~ Hector Melendez Premier Album~ Bailalo Puerto Rican Guitarist Héctor Melendez’s Premier Release Bailalo available on i-tunes now!!! Quince años lleva Héctor Meléndez trabajando para la música, de la única manera en que un talentoso pero humilde guitarrista como él puede hacerlo. Es decir, colaborando con otros músicos y cantantes nacionales (como Danny Rivera, Belén Cardona, Andy Montañez, Fernando Ferrer y Calle 13) e internacionales (como Chichi Peralta, Pavel Núñez, Luis Díaz, Johnny Méndez y Deborah Brum), simplemente para laborar en la única tarea que logra calmar un alma tan intensa como la suya. Luego de esa larga trayectoria aparece su primer disco, Báilalo: disco que recoge todas las influencias de Héctor Meléndez y sus experiencias sobre todo tipo de escenarios (clubes, conciertos, fiestas públicas, etcétera), y que se presenta como una producción original, con composiciones y arreglos propios, pero sobre todo, con un virtuosismo evidente que se esconde —por humildad— detrás de los ritmos populares que aparecen a lo largo del disco. http://www.hectormelendezmusic.com/*****************************************************************************************************************
