Rogue time travelers Sunny & Gabe return from their second era-hopping expedition to link up with new-wave-soul-rap crooner D.R.A.M. (also a time traveler) for a song called "I Luv It". At one of the world's most spectacular #juug summits, we are summoned to experience the luv for ourselves. Many rumors are circulating as to why the Virginia-based duo chose the year 2015 to drop this song, but the most apparent reason would be to breathe life into the boring, redundant, political blog-hype world that is our reality. Enjoy their new video!
Shout Out to Mark Foley aka Boomshack!

Brandon West is an experienced music supervision professional whose background successfully melds at the juncture of the music licensing, placement, publishing, A&R and management sectors. His expertise can currently be found at ThinkFactory Media in Los Angeles and his broad range of work can be traced to networks such as AMC, MTV, VH1, TV One and the HISTORY channel. FacebookTwitter
It was at the Grammy Awards that Carly was singing as a back-up vocalist for Cee Lo Green, when Cee Lo shared with her some invaluable advice. Carly had been writing and recording of-the-moment electro-pop songs, heeding the mainstream pop music industry’s commercial demands of young adult female artists. These tracks, and others, have received 1.5 million YouTube views for features on over 90 television shows spanning 30+ networks, including NBC’s 30 Rock and Fashion Star, ABC’s One Life to Live, etc. Merging warm, nuanced, sensitive, powerhouse vocals, with memorable melodies, meaningful lyrics, and contemporary arrangements that integrate select elements from classic pop’s distant and recent past, the piece of work reflects a unique, sophisticated timelessness for the modern adult-contemporary market.

They toil in deserts and on busy freeways, at the top of massive seaside cliffs and in the dim neighborhood dives of sunny L.A. The landscape is rife with energy and all the while they are collecting. Despite the great abundance they are not taking but merely assimilating, recording, merging and regurgitating their interpretation of the beauty and chaos all around. They are Young Creatures. Attempts to describe them often land at “psych” -- as in “psychedelic,” “psych-pop hypnotists,” or a “psych-rock band in pop clothing.” The terminology is often bogged down by notions of illicit indulgences or foolhardy voyages into the vast inner unknown. But this particular brand of rock ‘n roll is more than a simple affront to the machine-pop dominating our present-day collective consciousness. It is an alternative translation of the world around us, one that captures the essence of power and beauty and emotion that human beings are uniquely attuned to, that our machines allow us to ignore. That is the goal. For their full Bio & to check out their new album go to www.youngcreatures.com Tweet @young_creatures
Pushing the boundaries, multi-talented vocal specialist, Jase Beatboxer’s live performances display his talents of vocal percussion and vocal sound effects through live vocal looping. His improv and interactive performances display a unique blend of human sound effects, beatboxing, DJ-ing, voice-over and stand up comedy, all while encompassing todays technology through electronic hardware and software.

“The voice box is the most amazing instrument that we take for granted. Once you harness the power that it holds, creation is endless! While I’m able to use technology to my advantage, I can capture ideas as they come out and present them in real time to the audience.”
There is nothing Jase Beatboxer can’t do; he is like a machine and when he turns on, your mind will be blown.
Skotch Davis, but was born Joshua Davis-Henry to Maria Davis and Vincent Henry a long time ago. His Dad is a musician that has worked with everybody from Maceo Parker to Nas and Mom was a very successful and pioneering club promoter for Hip-Hop R&B acts like Brandy, Goodie Mob, The Lost Boyz and Jay-Z just to name a few. The latter whom let his Mom appear on his debut LP, Reasonable Doubt (the song "22 Twos", that's my Mom in the beginning of the song!) So its safe to say Davis was born into music & bred in Hip-Hop...it runs thru his blood & it's his life.

Last year was a crazy year for Luxxury. His "Luxxury Edits" was a smash hit. Such a smash that after over 1,000,000 plays and an article in the Wall Street Journal it was deemed “too hot for the internet” and was taken down from music platforms. However, as they say in Hollywood the show must go in. Luxxury is back and ready to release “Lxxury Edits: Series Deux” a new batch of live remixes that came from his DJ set. Take a listen to his first single “Talking Heads – Once In A Lifetime (LUXXURY EDIT)”. Its Hunnypot approved and we guarantee you’re going to love it!

Check out Boyfriend's new video "Attention". She's also gonna be featured in our 4/20 show! We had her on our radio show over the summer and she ripped it up. Just check the Hunnypot archive. Boyfriend has killer style and her lines are fresh to death. She's currently touring her hometown area of New Orleans and other various places in the South. She sets the night ablaze.
British newcomer Salt Ashes is continuing to bring us her brand of dark disco pop with her new video for Let Me Go as well as her brand new single; Raid. Let Me Go flashes a ton of images of Salt Ashes rad and creepy dance moves. Europe is already spinning Salt Ashes everywhere. It won't be long before her success reaches across the pond and no one will be able to her infectious songs out of their head.
Nowadays, real Outlaw Country is rarely heard on the radio or dance halls. If you want the real stuff, you've gotta look for it. This music lives on within renegades who strive to keep the flame alive - mavericks who eat, sleep, breathe and bleed Outlaw music.
Casey Miller and Megan Wise are the Barnyard Stompers. Forget about every other two-piece band you've ever experienced. Barnyard Stompers is no novelty. It's honest and true, and doesn't very much care for anything that isn't. So if you're looking for authentic Outlaw sounds birthed in the heart of Texas, you've come to the right place.
Billy Gottlieb, Walla and a Burlesque Show!!! 2/23/2015
The mind behind Playback Music Supervision needs no introduction for many who are keen to his craft, but for those of you who don't know Billy Gottlieb, allow us to catch you up on his work: Pulp Fiction, Bring It On, The Basketball Diaries, and many others exemplify the versatility necessary to become one of the most active music supervisors in the world, which our man Billy most certainly is. Though 2015 may be very, very young, Billy G has the distinction of already having 4 television series set to air in the new year - all of which feature drastically different musical styles. We're shocked and flattered that he's taken the time out of his busy schedule to spin some of his favorite tunes with us, and you should be too.
The RYWOLF sound is a combo of mid tempo trip hop mixed with soul blues and funk. The band are writing and recording new material being co-produced by Guy Roche and Steve Diamond.

Ireesh Lal is a multi-instrumentalist and programmer whose debut solo EP– ETHNOTRONICA – combines original electronic music with exotic East Indian elements alongside the distinctly Western tones of the jazz trumpet, creating a captivating new sound. Currently based in Venice, California, Lal sites Thievery Corporation, Miles Davis, and Ravi Shankar as three of his influences, and you can hear traces of each artist on his new release. www.ireeshlal.com
WALLA formed out of different times, places, and hardships. By random chance, these 5 individuals found each other through digital means and a common love for inventing new wavelengths. The sound reflected confusion and hopelessness during a time of tough life decisions and rough financial circumstances. But through sheer perseverance and the culmination of different influences (everything from pop, funk, samba, rock, metal, folk, disco, and neo-psychedelia) WALLA quickly made an indestructible pact to maintain strong melodies and lyrics, putting above and beyond care and effort into each decibel of sound produced (almost to the point of neuroticism), and allowing each song to breathe its own life and soul. "We loved the idea of not knowing what type of song we would come up with next." Follow @TheWallaBand
