The Northwest's premier source for the waviest music straight out of the Puget Sound. Check our feeds for updates on local urban arts + culture events.

Hip Hop's fraternal twins, Eff Is H (left) & Greg Scott (right) are Seattle's answer to musical evolution. Classic yet relevant… foolish yet intellectual, artistically KFG is the best of both worlds. Just like the Northwest is know for it's microbreweries, these 2 craftsmen are brewing new flavors for the iGeneration and Millennials. Don't be mislead by their 5 independent albums, their love for the old school Boom Bap era, or the fact that the letters K.F.G. rings bells around the Emerald City… These veterans are still yung'er than your favorite Trap artist. Expect them to crossover music genres and stereotypes like the 02' Kobe Bryant.

Heads may know Select Level mastermind Andy Sells best as the limber drummer for soulful fusion explorers Afrocop or as the bassist for noisy prog-rockers Nosretep... or maybe even for his stint in electronic brainiacs FCS North, who existed from 1997 to 2007. This talented Seattle multi-instrumentalist has established that he can get weird and far out in various situations. Select Level finds Sells veering off on a tangent into the realm of sleek music geared for dancing and romancing.  -Dave Segal.

Two phenomena emerged in 2015 that twisted reality: the first was that Berenstien bears was in fact Berenstain bears and the other was CRITTÉ, a synthpop band from Seattle. The band's name is a combination of the Spanish words criatura (creature) and grité (Shout/Yell). Based on characters from our front man and illustrator's own comic universe, CRITTÉ is adventurous musical and visual exploration of emotions.
