CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival) was only together a short time compared to other rock groups, but during that time period, they wrote songs that defined the revolutionary 60s and the transitioning 70s. One of their hits, “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” from their 1970 album Pendulum is full of pain, reflection and wisdom…
The Roots were one of the first groups to celebrate the intersection of hip hop and jazz, back in the late 1980’s.
You got musicality (they’re a band!), you got Black Thought, you got lyricism, what else can you ask for?
These guys know what they do…
This week we’ve got another track that was submitted to our playlist via the musicto.com website, it’s Gymnast’s Away the Sun.
With its soft tranquility and a very lovely female voice, Away the Sun is an awesome companion to those lonely reflective nights we all need every now and then.
It is common to experience a broken heart during the teen years. It’s almost a rite of passage to becoming an adult. The experience allows you to discover that there are people you love, people you hate, and sometimes both. Working through the pain, mending your heart, and loving again… that makes us human, and that strengthens the soul…
As a jellyfish who generally inhabits colder waters, people often ask me this. When it snows on the ocean, does it ever stick? Does your home become like a salt-water slushy? The answer, of course, is yes. The ocean itself can also freeze. I know I was welcoming the arrival of spring only 2 weeks ago, but there has been a bit of a turnabout back into winter where this jellyfish stays…
Twenty-five years ago, M.O.P. asked “How About Some Hardcore?” They have been offering it ever since. Lil Fame and Billy Danze appear to have one of Rap’s strongest group bonds. The Brownsville, Brooklyn duo has remained intact through the independent grind, mainstream recognition surrounding 2000’s Warriorz, and fruitless tenures that followed, both at Roc-A-Fella and G-Unit Records, respectively.
This song is a departure from the good feelings of norm. This song is a shining in a dark room, this song is dressed to the nines and a sip of expensive champagne. This song is several bottles of expensive alcohol empty, the smell of cigarettes, and fingers through your lover’s hair.

Lewis Hawkins, lead guitarist for the band The Brocklebank, submitted this track and I’m really excited for everyone to hear it!
In his own words:
“Our track ‘Youth’ epitomizes what this playlist is all about. It’s the fear and uncertainty of growing up, and doing everything you can to preserve the naivety of being young. The song documents a period where I was feeling lost, stranded in the void between childhood and adulthood…
Where do I start? Nick Hakim’s soulful voice hit me like a truck. So
much so that I remember where I was when I first heard him. I was
trying Japanese shaved ice for the first time (Not a fan) and this
song was playing in the store. Me being a music nut I got up out of my
seat and politely demanded the name of the song. I immediately put it
into my playlist and had it on repeat for days.
Andy Shauf’s The Magician explores a third person take on what is going on inside the mind of a magician as he is about to pull off his climatic trick – and that’s exactly what it is, a trick. The trick involves facing death, a real nail biter that only a magician would be able to escape. He disappears and audience is moved to the edge of their seat in anticipation. The trick is only as good as it’s reveal as that’s what the audience wants to see. Anyone can disappear, but not everyone can reappear. However, by contrast, the opening lyrics of the song are self-reflective of the magician, “do you find its gets a little easier each time you make it disappear.”
