“I am losing precious days. I am degenerating into a machine for making money. I am learning nothing in this trivial world of men. I must break away and get out into the mountains to learn the news.” – John Muir

MUIR independently released their self-titled album in October 2014, an instrumental collaboration of 10 musicians founded by Nashville-based guitarist Drew Creal. These 11 songs span a wide range of emotive dynamics and influences, including progressive metal, post-rock and stoner rock. Distorted and delay-drenched guitars, grooving bass and intricate drumming create a myriad of sonic textures, taking listeners on a series of unique journeys.

Just as author John Muir famously wrote of leaving an over-civilized world and returning to nature to find true harmonious connection with self, the universe and creator, Creal was inspired to return to the guitar and regain a sense of connection and home found only in shared experiences of music. Shortly after the self-titled album release, Creal moved away from years of casual collaborations with a horde of Nashville instrumentalists, solidifying a three-piece band with drummer Jason Root and bassist Joe Burgers. This unit says they have set their sights on “honing a wall of sound that will push fans beyond the noise of the ‘over-civilized world’ and into deeper connections that remind the soul it is eternal, and we are not alone.”

Muir is available on iTunes, Spotify and Bandcamp.

Sibusiso Mhlongo famously known as the music luminary DJ Merlon was born 28 years ago
on the 7th day of August at Umbumbulu, a mission under eThekwini Municipality.
Technically gifted and ambitious with his education he moved to Esikhawini Township in
Zululand where he matriculated at Hlamvana High School. His passion for Music began
when he started his Tertiary Education in 2002 at the Durban University of Technology.
From then on his life was never quite the same; this musical prodigy was destined for great
things. He graduate getting his Operations/ Production Management Diploma in 2005.
Later that year (2005), DJ Merlon joined forces and went on to assist ZakesBANTWINI when
he started his Music label, Mayonie Production. In that midst, Mayonie Productions
discovered and signed Lvovo Derrango early in 2006 and Merlon become his Tour Manager,
DJ and opening Act. During his time at Mayonie Productions DJ Merlon was presented with
an exclusive opportunity, he was one of the people whom were in the forefront in the
making of Lvovo Derrango’s first studio album. This opportunity led him to work closely with
a group called Shana (Shota, Demor and BlackCoffee). In 2007 parallel to his DJ career he
became an Artist Manager for Lvovo Derrango and Later for all Mayonie Productions Artists
including Zakes Bantwini, Beezory and the late DJ Buddah.
In 2008 he left Mayonie Productions to focus and develop his DJ career, a month later Lvovo
Derrango also left Mayonie Productions to start his own label Derrango Records and signed
DJ Merlon as his first artist. This was yet another promising opportunity for the multitalented
Disc Jockey. However; it was not all smiles and gloom, with Lvovo busy with his
booming and the promising Kwaito career, DJ Merlon was left with no choice but to go back
into the office, he then multi tasked between being a DJ and a label manager for Derrango
Records. During this time he used this opportunity to further develop his DJ skills playing
before/ after Lvovo’s performance in all the gigs they attended, including the international
performances/ stages in England, Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland, Zimbabwe and also in all
nine provinces locally, slowly DJ Merlon’s brand was growing and with immense potential,
indeed greater things were on the way.
In 2010, Merlon joined forces with Mthokozi “DJ Tira” Khathi on the release of Lvovo’s 4th
offering “Irresistible”, both of them as executive producers to the project.
Flash-forward to 2011 DJ Merlon developed his DJ brand and became one of the most
sought after DJ’s in Durban and the entire KwaZulu Natal Province and other provinces, he
was no longer just a DJ, he was a well-recognised and respected brand among promoters
and event organisers.
2012 was a stepping stone for this house music sensation; besides being an executive
producer to Lvovo Derrango’s “The Head Master” album, he started working on his first
musical offering, his very own project titled “Sounds musical” which is now released and
available in all good music stores. To guarantee success of this album nationally Derrango
Records joined forces with Music Box Entertainment owned by the popular DJ Terence.
Together they sealed a deal for a star DJ with Soul Candi now known as Music
Entertainment and Solution Hub (MESH). With this album Merlon wanted to unleash new
talent, working with local underground Vocalists such as Lwazi, Ndu Shezi, Bevan Lynch and
Monaco. However, with all his references he did work with some of the big names as well
such as DJ Terence, Lvovo Derrango, Moneoa and Mondli Ngcobo and well recognised
producers including Invaders of Africa, Pex Africa, Mondli Ngcobo and Unplugged.
Over the years he has played alongside and shared stages with internationally recognised
and musical influences such as BlackCoffee (Soulistic Music), Ralf gum (GOGO-Music),
Rocco, Oskido, Fistaz and DJ Fresh.
Besides being a DJ, Merlon has also coordinated and managed a number of events for
tertiary institutions, private sector and government departments around the country. In
these events he has also booked and worked with a number of high ranking artists and
companies.
What makes him unique as a DJ is his vocal house sound, continuously improving skills and
techniques when he entertained crowds all over the country and very soon the world.
Indeed with so much talent, focus and skill, DJ Merlon is the next Big name to ever come out
of the South African Music industry.

''Eat my majesticness.''

I love shiny things and "plausible" distractions that dictate nothing of the normal; what isn't to be pardoned is how majestically am I inclined to the paranormal and supernatural occurrences that do not rebound on account of "not working" due to Realastators; oh no, it is ripe in fictuous fact faculties deviations truth because that means "yes" I break even the metaphysical realities creating rifts in the (in)famously interdimensional fourth wall and I'm proud of it.

Bashing open interval portal shifts that is.

"Don't make me have to push somepony into a wormhole in one of my MANY flamboyant moods. I would hate to HAVE to do ECCENTRICITY in public because then: ?

You're going to suck my Unicorns. Feed my Pegasus, and kick MY Ponies.''

This Changeling Pony ain't go no affiliation with popularity, profit, or drama on this damn here website called SoundCloud, though, being a YouTube DJ is cool; it's where I'm going to have my musician career uploaded to whenever I do get the chance.

Launched in 2007 by longtime friends, producers and DJs, Jason Short, Marc Smith, Tim Kelleher and Hac Le, San Francisco-based Auralism Records brings the minimal machinations of Berlin to the Bay Area's famously funky dance floors. Auralism's roots trace back to 2005, when Smith and Short, producing together as the duo Coalition of the Killing, realized they'd need an outlet to handle their formidable stockpile of unreleased tracks. After top-flight DJs began blowing up parties worldwide with their white labels, they knew what needed to be done: the only way to give the music the forum it deserved was to release it themselves. Thus began the vision for a driven, analog-centric label that will finally get Bay Area techno noticed by its European counterparts.

From its original conception as a conduit for COTK's output, the imprint has since matured into a diversified, international roster of artists both seasoned and newly arrived, including Elon (Made to Play), Alland Byallo (Kontrol SF), Miguel Colmenares (Subtropical), and Limaçon (Poker Flat). Auralism is very much a cooperative, encouraging its artists to experiment within its twisted, propulsive blueprint while pushing them to the outer limits of impeccable sound design. The label has also hit the ground running with some of the dirtiest throwdowns that San Francisco has seen in years, importing talents like Pier Bucci, Lee Curtiss, Billy Dalessandro, Appendics Shuffle, Exercise One, and Pan-Pot to go head-to-head with the label's residents. With a release schedule jam-packed with new material, plus remixes commissioned from scene stalwarts such as Argenis Brito, Justin Maxwell, and Franklin De Costa, Auralism has firmly entrenched itself as a label to watch in 2007. 

Brigadier Jerry emerged in the late 1970’s, as one of the most popular cultural DJ’s to regularly improvise over the Jamaican sound systems. Highly respected in Jamaica as a conscious DJ, Briggy was a sound system teacher, teaching Rasta culture to the multitudes. Bootleg recordings of these dancehall sessions started to leak out internationally amongst the deeper cultural enthusiasts, spreading Briggy’s name abroad. In the years to come, other DJ’s were to follow his example, but Brigadier Jerry remains as the teacher, who set the standard. His vibe and lyrics have an Old Testament Biblical quality about the, that is both edifying and endearing.

More About BRIGADIER JERRY


More influential through his live performances than his scant recordings, Brigadier Jerry was one of Jamaica's top DJs at the dawn of the .dancehall era. A brilliant lyrical improviser, Briggy or 'The Teacher' -- as he was affectionately known -- elevated the standards for speed and fluidity in DJ chatting technique, laying the groundwork for much of what followed, along with Josey Wales and Charlie Chaplin. Despite early dance hall's taste for slackness, Jerry's subject matter was almost always spiritual and cultural, though he did have a sense of humor and was an excellent battle DJ. Still actively touring in the new millennium, he also still commanded much of the respect -- among knowledgeable reggae audiences -- that he did in his groundbreaking heyday. Brigadier Jerry was born Robert Russell in Kingston on September 28, 1957. He started his career in show business by trying stand-up comedy in his early teens, but soon moved on to work for sound systems. He started out on a sound system in his community named Emperor Marcus in the early '70s, and soon moved on to the legendary Jah Love Muzik system; this latter was run by the Christian Rastafarian sect to which he belonged, the Twelve Tribes of Israel. While with Jah Love, bootleg cassette tapes of his live performances began to circulate among DJ aficionados, resulting in packed houses wherever he played. Despite his sterling underground reputation and influential, melodic toasting style, Jerry was barely represented on record until 1982. He'd previously cut several tracks for Studio One, including "Every Man Me Brethren" and "Dance in Montreal," and appeared on several local singles with other Twelve Tribes members. In 1982, he cut a new version of the Slim Smith riddim "Never Let Go," which he retitled "Pain" and released on the small Jywanza label. It was a major hit, rocketing to the top of the Jamaican charts. Further singles followed over the next couple of years: "Gwan a School" (Jywanza), "Horse a Gallop" (Powerhouse), "Warn Dem" (for Judy Mowatt's Ashandan label), and the 1984 hit "Jamaica, Jamaica" (on Jah Love Muzik's own label). Meanwhile, he also mentored the career of DJ Sister Carol, Shine Head, Tiger, Sister Nancy, Shabba Ranks and DJed for nearly every prominent sound system in Jamaica. A semi-official live album, Live at the Controls, appeared in 1983, but he didn't record his proper debut LP until 1985. Also called Jamaica Jamaica, it was the closest he came to capturing the excitement of his live gigs in the studio, and featured several signature tunes in the title track, the aforementioned "Every Man Me Brethren," and "Armageddon." Several more singles followed over the rest of the '80s, but Jerry remained a live DJ at heart. He relocated to New York on a permanent basis in 1988, and only put together a second album with 1990's On the Road. In 1992, Jerry returned to Jamaica and revived the Jah Love Muzik sound system; he also recorded his third proper album, Hail Him, for Tapper Zukie's label. Another album, Freedom Street, appeared on the VP label in 1995. Today, Briggy still travels extensively to Europe and Japan touring. Although he's famously known as a 'dance hall DJ' on sound systems, Briggy is now touring with his own band doing stage shows.He released his fifth album in 2009  entitled, "Shower of Blessings" on the Virtuous Woman label.
