Let us tell you something about ‘Music for everyone’. It’s 21st century now, which means there is no music for everyone. Michael Jackson’s death could be also considered as an official death certificate of ‘Music for everyone’. Nothing can be marked with this label today. But if you ask us about potential target group for this release, we would answer that it’s for people who still looks for some catchy melodies with a proper combination of old- and newschool electronic arrangements. So if you’re the one who always ready to browse and listen to hundreds of tracks to find a personal brilliant, this EP could be your personal brilliant!

Meet Bear and Lamshade. A contemporary American group of extremely talented musicians founded by Robert Neubauer in 2009. Just one year of running through the jungle of modern electronic music, but on a pro level for sure! Siddhartha EP is a properly mixed cocktail of breakcore, maybe a little bit of hardcore, some IDM, industrial and oldschool electronic music pieces. Jazzy pianos, electric guitars and even choirs are also included to create a really delicious taste. Actually we can guarantee that this album will stuck in one’s audioplayer for quite a while.

To promote Creative Commons licensed music and the musicians behind it, Musikpiraten e.V. launches this year once again the Free! Music! Contest. Until the end of July, musicians and bands who are releasing their music under a Creative Commons license, can register for the contest. Until August 22th there will be an additional remix-phase: the participating artists are invited to submit single stems or acapellas in addition to the individual songs. By submitting individual tracks or the submission of music videos, the chance to be added onto the sampler that will be a result of the contest, will be increased – if only just a little bit.

A panel of music bloggers, artists and netlabel enthusiasts then decides who will be promoted on the Free! Music! Sampler 2010. It will be made available as a free download and also be pressed on CD.

Mixgalaxy goes exotic this summer. Another one experimental step in our journey. We’re gonna present you our first LP release by overseas artist Yokandesh. He was born in Brazil town Belo Horizonte but raised in Lima (Peru), Quito (Ecuador) and Vitoria (Brazil). The moment of truth happened in Germany where Yokandesh decided to become a music maker.

And the result is ‘Viva Como Quiera’ (Live as You Want to), top quality Brazilian Pop album mixed with Samba, Rock, Baião, Jazz and other elements from many genres. The album shows how versatile pop can be, having as many as five completely different rythms and still maintaining an identity. 1000 physical copies have been sold in Brazil since January 2010. These songs are about travelling, love and freedom. A perfect album for the summer.
