Occasionally, music comes in via our Contact page and I’m always surprised at the variety that makes its way through. Here are two such submissions:

The Flamingo’s are a “Hip/Hop, Electronic, and other various kinds of art collaboration” that recently released “Garden State of Mind” – a hip-hop track based on Zero7 sample. You can hear more of their various offerings over on their Soundcloud or Facebook page. They cover a lot of ground in terms of genres so be sure to click around if you’re not entirely smitten with the first thing you listen to; it’s entirely possible there is a gem in there waiting to be unearthed for you.

Paul Horton, also known as No Stress is by his own description an improvisational pianist that started tinkering around with beats the past five years. His first EP, available here, is a laid back journey of break beats and various movie samples. Definitely piqued my interest to hear more as he creates it.
