The Oxymorrons
Exploding onto the scene with their fearless approach to sound, this eclectic trio is a force to be reckoned with. The Oxymorrons, a name which plays off the all around musical and personal steez of each member, form a paradox of hip hop titans. Oblivious to boundaries while successfully stewing genres like hip hop, rock, alternative, R&B, and even classical, the triad has formed their own vibrations known as the Klasher Music “Sounds good, feels good!” With their colorful music palette the Oxymorrons have been comparaed to N.E.R.D and Outkast. Emerging from Queens, New York, the group has worked with Boston’s own Bad Rabbits and is currently working their debut Album, Indigo Plateau. After recently dropping their Mixtape, Better than McDonalds, otherwise known as the appetizer before the main course.
Children of the Night
More
Children of the Night had seen many changes and adjustments over the years. It was the thought of having a "supergroup" of emcees that originally fascinated founders Versa and Lans. In the year 2004, the two had been undergoing drastic changes in flow and style, leading the two to become one powerful force. Years passed and other people were brought into the picture. Through local Queens emcee, "Prophit, Remy Banks was introduced. After hearing his lyrics, Lansky and Versa began to build with the local emcee. COTN continues to focus on performing live at venues around the city, getting on college and internet radio stations, as well as prepping their freshmen mixtape release "100%". "The songs, personalities and lyrics are all forming a very durable fabric", explains Lansky.
Pants Velour
More
Sixties influenced mod/rockers Très Bien bring substance and depth back to American Rock. Their delightful music is an exuberant romp of eclectic melodies that seem to have been constructed in a basement boiler room in the UK, but rather created by four young lads in Florida. Still in their early 20's, Très Bien have come a long way since their beginings 7 years ago as an indie/punk quartet.
