Cory Branan/Dana Falconberry Birthday Show

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Tomorrow at Mohawk, check out the Cory Branan/Dana Falconberry Co-Birthday Show.

Yeah, it’s late notice, but this is a show worth seeing. Cory Branan is a talented guitarist and vocalist with a decidedly tongue-in-cheek Americana vibe. Listen to his music and you’ll instantly recognize the immense songwriting skill he possesses. Need proof? Download “Survivor Blues” below.

The show gets going at 9:30pm; it’s an all ages show and it’ll set you back $7.

Past, Present, Future: bignic

war on peace

If you have been following TwoGroove for any amount of time, you know I’m a geek for electronic music. This is especially true for breakbeat. And just my luck, I get bignic in my SonicBids inbox! The music is a mix of dark synths, big beats, and fuzzy basslines. Basically, it’s everything I like. At times, bignic evokes thoughts of Moby while at others it’s pure Chemical Brothers. Despite the comparisons, the sound retains its uniqueness.

bignic shows his musical maturity and experience by not catering to one specific style, instead offering a variety of sounds.Tracks like “Down” will have you rocking out while more ambient offerings like “War” will drop the beat in favor of delicate rhythms. For my money, though, it’s all about “Modern Pentathalon” and “My Trip”. They are big, danceable tracks that are making this post take longer than it should to write due to my propensity to get lost in them.

Our interview with bignic is below. Additionally, he’s giving away some free mp3s including a track from the new album. Check the post for the download links.

Free mp3 download – “Black Crosses” by Strung Out

Friday, September 4th, 2009

Strung OutFor better or worse (usually for worse), I am signed up for pretty much every music mailing list out there. I don’t remember signing up for them all but apparently my email address gets around. The slut. Most of the time, the mailings are light on the info and overly promotional. Every once in a while, however, a diamond appears in the rough.

In one such overly promotional email, amongst multiple colors and sizes of text, was a free mp3 from Strung Out. I remember seeing them open for Pennywise in Ventura, Ca. It was an awesome punk show and one of my friends ended up smoking out with Strung Out in their bus after getting kicked out of the venue. While they never really hit true commercial success, Strung Out heavily influenced forgettable bands such as Blink-182, Rise Against, Thrice, and Avenged Sevenfold. These guys are pretty much legendary in LA and are OG punksters. Not to be confused with Punky.

So check it out, here’s Black Crosses off their new album Agents of the Underground. In stores September 29th. They will be at Red 7 in early October as part of their album tour.
