Norine Braun, Canada's Queen of Eclectic Pop, Adds Another Flawless Jewel To Her Crown With "Now and Zen" Norine Braun's music has always existed on its own terms, falling into that titillating, refreshingly original space to the left of "trendy," craftily sidestepping the all-too-easily-dismissed stigma often applied to the "female singer/songwriter," and freewheeling unhindered around the rigid shackles of "genre." Along with savvy producer and multi-instrumentalist James Bowers, Braun has accumulated an extraordinary discography of unpretentious, personal songs anchored by her sweet, confident voice and genteel composition. Together, the pair crafts tuneful, friendly songs with subtle but effective arrangements, dynamic and graceful and memorable.Now, Braun is back with her fifth CD, Now & Zen, and on these fourteen tracks Braun shows an even greater depth and maturity. Now & Zen expands on her penchant for jazzed up, funk-tinged pop, and shows this gifted songstress taking bold steps on her soulful journey into self-exploration. The torch song, "Move the Clouds," is evocative and inspirational, anchored by easy lounge piano and a melody as delicate as flower petals. The groovy "J'en Suis Desolee" showcases Braun's confident rap, surprising and rocking with an edgy explosion of homegirl verve. Artsy and intellectual, tuneful and savvy, Norine Braun will zing to the heart of any listener. BUY NOW ! Discover Norine Braun's Now and Zen!

Nate Lieby is a musical enigma. He is punctual, a rarity among musicians, grew up listening to NWA and Metallica, and earns a living as a software engineer. Somehow, despite countless hours of peering into computer screens, Lieby has managed to transcend nerdiness. And his band, 300 Pounds - a cross between Violent Femmes, They Might be Giants and Jack Johnson - is the proof. "Our music is hard to describe," said Lieby. "We're rock. We usually say eclectic rock. We are palatable to a lot of people, but the music still has our own flare to it." When 300 Pounds bring their brand of nerd-rock to Britannia Arms Saturday night, get ready for a band who simply loves to play. "The main reason we get out and play is that it is damn fun to just go out and rock," said Lieby. "We enjoy playing music. We enjoy playing the music we bring together as a band." For Lieby, who experienced some musical success in Santa Cruz with the ska band The Sneaky Creekans, 300 Pounds began as a solo act. After recording Pounds' album in his bedroom, and playing some small shows on his own, Lieby had a change of heart. "300 Pounds was going to be a solo project where I didn't have to worry about anyone but myself. And then through real life - and trying to do it all alone, I realized that you need a band. And you need to have some sort of set crew to go and do it with," said Lieby. Advertisement The result of Lieby's realization is a three-man jam band who flail poppy-intelligence with nine-to-five sensibility. Lieby plays guitar and sings vocals. Drums are manned by Jon Moriconi, an engineer by day who also played guitar in the Creekans. Bass is throttled by John "Pecos" Davis, who pays the bills by working in the mortgage industry. 300 Pounds' self-titled debut is a collection of smooth eccentricities that play like the soundtrack to Lieby's coming-of-age. The album, which began as a hip-hop experiment as the Creekans were fading, developed into a mixed bag - part techno funk, part Zappa-rock and part acoustic folk. According to Lieby, the album is a collection of music, "focused on human interaction, life events and whatnot." Standout tracks, "Timeline," "Somet" and "Hush" are quirky windows into Lieby's life. "What Can't Be Found" weaves unplugged guitar hooks into a slick lament over a lost love. This track is timeless, pulling listeners into the torment of heartache and loneliness, showing Pounds' serious side. "Got Nothing" moves at an energetic pace, but in a mellow surf-rock way. The track is silky, a party tune rivaling Ben Harper or fusion-rock icons Sublime. Pounds' is moving away from their acoustic origins on their new album, according to Lieby. "The new album is called Metamorphosis," explained Lieby. "Because originally the band was all me. And now, this record has gone through a collaborative process with all the band members. The result is a more rocky feel, more similar to our live shows." Judging by demos off "Metamorphosis," Pounds are definitely changing musically. The tracks "Dunno" and "Butcher" are infectious and catchy, the kind of songs that bring head-bobbing as a reflex. "Royalty" is thrash-rock. ...

CD $88.25
Once upon a time...In the days that were once days, a Darkness spread across the land of The Free. This force devastated like a plague amongst the remaining Three, compromising the balance to that of The Shadows. In a personal thirst for being, the beguiled populace swooned to the debauchery of their seduction.Under false idealism, The Individual became buried beneath the refuse of an archetype gone awry. Bequeathed by tolerance, The Leaders also fell prey to the tsunami of delusion, obliterating hope amongst the steadfast. Foundations plunged beneath the mire of complaisance and apathy reigned as a religion. All relevance was lost amidst the flurry of a rabid fox hunt with a hidden agenda while the tides of the Okeanos rose in condemnation...The equilibrium of the Great Shift slanted to awaken those of ancient lore and fabled mystik slumber. From the hoaried great halls of the four corners of time they emerged...It is here where we begin a bard's tale of vigil epikos.One of truly cyclopean proportions and most excellent valour!One...of mind, body & soul.The Tales of Don Quixote is a rare collection of demos from Toronto indepedent quartet 5th Projekt's forthcoming full length album CiRCADiAN due in 2006. Each limited edition album package has been hand assembled by 5th Projekt. As only 700 extended EPs were made, less than 100 remain.Review excerpts:5th Projekt Break the MoldTangible SoundsCinematic being the easiest way to describe it, 5th Projekt, whose band members consist of Sködt McNalty, Tara Rice, Nathan Kaye and Peter Broadley, has created a style of music that is part goth, part folk, part drama and part spiritual. It is the kind of music that you can imagine Shakespeare’s tragedies being played to, containing lyrics that would please Silvia Plath.- Julie Hunter March 2006*for full article, please visit ...

onadIme is a band destined for greatness. Its truly original sound is an amalgam of hard- rock and jazz with a careful balance between mathematical rhythms, melody and thematic movement. Each song is crafted with two audiences in mind: the audiophile praying for something different but still accessible and the rock and roll fan looking for a heavy, pounding jam. Inspired by bands such as Tool, Stone Temple Pilots and Rush, onadIme captures a unique but familiar sound, pays tribute to the bands that have come before it and looks to build a new road for future bands to follow. Though it focuses on creating high ...
