GRiZ - A Fine Way To Die Feat. Orlando Napier [Free Download]


GRiZ has been hinting at new music for a while now and does not disappoint with this funky new track that features vocals from singer-songwriter Orlando Napier. Between the extravagant use of horns, drums, guitar lines, and some killer vocals this track was hard in the works for a full year to finally perfect. Some GRiZ lovers may recognize this track as GRiZ began one of his live sets he performed on a morning music program in Santa Monica, California. You can check out that set HERE for a look at how he performs and gets down on the saxophone as he is famously known for. GRiZ has made tune this readily available for a free download HERE and I've also included the song below for your listening pleasure. GRiZ is building up the tension as he prepares for "GRiZmas" on December 20th, where he is scheduled to play a show in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan with Odesza, Will Sessions, and Gosh Pit. Celebrating these 12 days of "GRiZmas" includes new tracks, various activities, contests, and giveaways. You can bet I will be following it closely, so stay tuned for more updates. Until then, stay saxy and enjoy some new content from the G man.

Battles - "Atlas" - Song of the Day - 10/16/14




http://dailybeatz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/battles.jpegBattles is a very experimental style of rock band, they are all talented musicians that can go off on musical tangents leaving the listener wondering what just happened. "Atlas" comes from the debut album by Battles entitled Mirrored. The album name is very fitting due to the incredible use of patterns found in many of the songs. Battles sort of reminds me of Primus, using powerful banging bass slaps along with raw recordings. This is about as indie as you can get with rock music and vocals, just when it seemed like everything had been done before musically, Battles comes through with a new take on grunge music. Mirrored is a long song basically split into tracks, thus the abrupt ending, so you have to listen to the whole album to get the full effect. You can listen to the entire Battles album Mirrored here on Spotify.
