Ginjah - Desperate In Need

Ginjah is hot hot hot - Summit Music Group hit the charts and Ginjah and the hit track ‘Desperate in Need’ is currently number one on the Kiss TV Charts in Kenya. And it’s easy to see why.

This cool and laid-back artist is bringing reggae back to our radios, and I am loving it. His latest single, ‘Desperate in Need’ touches on the poor and severe conditions children in third world countries are living in, and evidently, he is reaching his listeners.

With a cool Jamaican reggae feel, Ginjah has remained true to his roots and previous works, but has still effectively got his message across on a serious issue. Although Ginjah touches on some serious topics, he still manages to create a joyous and uplifting sound.

Buy the single and show your support, and while you’re at it pick up some more fun Ginjah tracks to pick up your mood. Or you can purchase his album ‘Never Lost My Way’, released just this last September.

This music is addictive, up lifting and fulfilling, with depth most listeners are looking for. You can’t go wrong with Ginjah.

Big Engine - Rock-N-Roll Machine

Big Engine’s Rock-N-Roll Machine is out now to blow you away and set you free from the boring social norms holding you back from rockin’ out!

From first instant, you’ll be wanting more of the band’s full-blown rock ‘n’ roll and catchy choruses that will keep that musical memory of yours occupied for days on end.

Big Engine brings a sense of youth and rebellion through their music, much like Nirvana and Foo Fighters. You’ll also find a twist of Southern American-style country in ‘Be Your Man,’ which comes as no surprise, as these boys hail from Jacksonville, Florida.

Don’t be fooled though, this band is far from the passive hunky-dory style country that we’ve seen in artists like Billy-Ray Cyrus. Big Engine takes country, adds some manly rock and a pinch of angst, shakes it up, and delivers it with gusto.

That being said, Rock-N-Roll Machine is nonetheless a diverse album, bringing an assortment of genres into the mix. For instance, songs like ‘Party Like a Rock Star’ and ‘Juggernaut (built for speed)’ are undeniably adrenalin-charged rock songs, while ‘Not For You’ is a soft-rock love ballad.

Rock-N-Roll Machine, will bring you laughter, tears, anger and a whole lot of adrenalin. It’s all the more reason to get your hands on this brand spanking new rock album.

The Betrayals mix rap and vocals with a fusion of classic and new-age rock, and a hint of grunge. Combining these genres has made the album so diverse, making it all the more enjoyable and practically impossible to become bored with.

The band’s latest album, Euro Radio will engage you with a sound that resembles bands such as Rage Against The Machine, INXS and Kiss.

“Man Is Back” will remind you of Rage Against The Machine’s “Killing In The Name Of” as both mix similar genres such as rock and rap, and include a memorable guitar riff.

“More Than Words,” is a slower, more heart-felt number, creating dynamics within the album. It also has a classic 80’s slow rock feel, largely associated with bands like INXS.

“Eagle Fly” is heavier and has a grungier feel. It also has some experimental sounds throughout, which gives it its own unique and cutting-edge style.

The vocals that extend to great heights also show influences from Muse, which shows The Betrayals’ appreciation for rock anthems both new and old.

The Funkanauts

The Funkanauts are bringing back the funk into the 21^st century with their radical and psychedelic tunes. Their sound will remind you of the feel good tunes brought to us in the 80’s by Earth, Wind & Fire, and will make you want to get up and ‘boogy on down!’ (As quoted in Earth, Wind & Fire’s “Let’s Groove”)

You’ll also hear an influence of two-man band Outkast, who are famous for their party anthems world-wide, and that’s exactly where I see The Funkanauts heading.

This band will stir up a rhythm of funk inside anyone who listens. “The Right Thang” is a hip and groovin’ tune that will lift your spirits, and get your foot tapping, while “Keepin’ It Real” has a chilled out feel, and a sense of retro-cool. “Subway” and “Chocolate Lollipop” are love songs featured on the album, minus the gloomy melodies and instrumentals.

Play this album at home, or in your car, wherever it’s played, it’s sure to pick up the mood.

Reclaiming The Pyramid definitely has the potential to become the next party album of the year. So, at your next gathering, chuck these guys on your record player, and you’ll have all your guests dancing in no time!

Evolution Eden unashameably epitomise the bad boy, sex drugs, and rock and roll attitude pioneered by the likes of Kiss, Aerosmith and Motley Crue. Evolution Eden sing about living the rock and roll life! You know what that means!?! Raw, unadultered, old skool stadium rock from go to whoah.
