For those NOT in the holiday mood, we've got a brand new electro-soul jam for you. LA's GRiDWORK gives the brokenhearted something to commiserate over during this festive time. Sampling The Temptations' "I Wish It Would Rain," Ryan Aicklen takes on the sour subject with some sweet subsonic synth work, and a tasty beat. You can download this guy for the price of a "Like" on his Facebook page. Give it a whirl!

GRiDWORK - Losing You [EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE]

Elements is a tribute to alchemy, the transformation of matter. I always believed that sampling has the potential to transform a dusty, forgotten moment into a vibrant landscape of fantastic impossibilities. Music has an alchemic property, transforming silence into song, nothing into something. I chose Fire, Air, Water, and Earth, the four basic element of alchemy, as seeds for these songs. 
The first, Slivers of Light, represents fire, the sun, and the light given by both. Your Ghost, a song dedicated to the memory of my father Tadeusz Menert, signifies the element of air, and the unseen spirits therein. Eventide's two parts embody the duality of water: Part 1 is the turbulent high tide, water's destructive powers, crashing along the shores into Part 2, which sweeps through the lifegiving and cleansing properties, a low tide of sorts. The album closes with Quiet Earth, a song for my mother, Jolanta, as well as the earth that we chisel away at as a species. This song begins with the noise of humanity, with a lone voice cry out "Do you see, just what you mean to me" until the commotion calms, signifying the end of us, a finality, a quiet earth. 
I hope you enjoy what I consider my favorite work so far, remastered and released as a whole, digitally, for the first time ever.

Eventide Pt 2

"Off The Beat'n Path is my debut, full-length release via Kansas City-based Philos Records. A culmination of tracks inspired by the twists-and-turns, highs-and-lows faced on our own specific paths. Whichever direction you may choose, for better or for worse, I hope the music will help bring positivity along the way." 

Thank You to Philos Records for making this release possible and allowing me to share my music with the world! Special thanks to my parents, Roads, G-MO, Martin Lambert, Mr. Jilliams, and all those who have shown support along the way…Most importantly YOU for taking the time to listen.

Anvil Smith's music is nothing short of astounding.  Russian born Yan Golovkin is somewhat of a startling example of what an obsession can grow into with the right motivations and some artistic direction.

Regardless of nationality, the quality of production far exceeds that of many young bedroom producers in Anvil Smith's peer group.  Add to the story a barely functioning computer and an autodidactic grasp on music theory, we are in the midst of a savant producer.  The Russian aspect only adds to the trials and tribulations that Anvil Smith has overcome to be able to solely focus on making great music.

Keep your eye on Anvil Smith and those supporting him as he will be running with the big dogs in no time.  Enjoy his new album and watch for tour dates in the coming months.
