Product Description
Educational Hip-Hop for Kids. A fun and funny, grooving, brilliant, creative, gentle, and kid-friendly- a one-of-a-kind treat for kids of all ages to enjoy. Smart Beats is a masterful combination of fun and educational children s music. Bingo Records Presents: Smart Beats, Volume 1 is a gem from the fertile mind of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Josh Nadel. Nadel, father, gifted composer and graduate of Berklee College Of Music, decided to combine a variety of musical elements in creating a unique children s project. He noted the popularity of rap and hip-hop and wondered why those genres could not be translated in an album for children that was something totally fresh and age appropriate yet not condescending. And so he went out and created just what he envisioned: a gentle, smart, melodic and grooving rap/hip-hop album that also happens to be exceptional children s educational music. Before you say: I don t like rap and hip-hop music or my kid is too young to listen to rap and hip-hop, listen to this CD. Forget everything you might think about these genres whether you re a huge fan of Kanye or think 50 Cent is how much you pay for a newspaper. Smart Beats songs focus on your family tree, dinosaurs, geography, recycling, activities and more. As with all music from Bingo Records, the production values are world class and will stand the test of the repeated listens that your children are going to ask for. To create this masterpiece Josh used some of the finest studio musicians from the Hip-Hop and R&B music scene: producers of hit records, rappers who appear on major label releases, great singers and players. Give it a try, we guarantee you ll be hooked.Customer Reviews:

Halloween for All

Product Description
This CD was written and produced with the intention of providing something different for the Halloween music market - cool sounding tunes and modern beats, a poem set to thematic music, an instrumental, sound effects...all rolled into one CD that plays continually between tracks - using a thunderstorm in between to connect everything together. I wanted to produce something smart the whole family could enjoy, or a whole classroom of kids could dance to...and especially - it needed to be something that younger kids wouldn't get too scared listening to. Jose James delivers beautifully on "You Don't Scare Me" and the reggae treatment of "Trick-or-Treat". Vocalist Christine Rosholt provided the right mood for "The Owl" and the background vocals on "Run Away". Tim Houlihan was the "Ghost Train " passenger and behind the scene collaborator on several other cuts. As a fulltime musician in Saint Paul Minnesota, I wear many hats: teaching - performing - writing and arranging - and music production. I approach all my music endeavors from the heart and am fortunate to be able to work in this field. Creating this CD was really fun...and I hope you and your family enjoy it.

Album Description
Audiences on both sides of the ocean await the Winter 2003 release of "Paranoia", which continues the POEM-CEES tradition of pushing the boundaries of contemporary hip-hop music. Conceived prior to the 9/11 tragedies, "Paranoia" avoids clichés yet remains amazingly prescient by focusing on the various manifestations of paranoia in our lives. A mild case is represented by "SIWBY (commitment)", a casual conversation on cold feet in a relationship, while the extreme instance is hilariously represented by "Fat White Men In Suits". "Glasses" is a cautionary tale for those who stumble through life like Mr. Magoo, and "Keloid Suite" and "Jay" are chilling examples of a parent's worst nightmare. All in all, the entire "Paranoia" project runs the gamut of emotions, ultimately standing as the rarest of the rare: a well-executed, non-self indulgent concept record that may be digested in segments or as a whole (translation: it's a very, very good cd).Customer Reviews:
The many faces of paranoia.......2003-05-22
The beat kicks in. We're in party mode, but things are still unsettled. I can't find the bling, only corrupt cops and incompetent middle management. They tell me I can't see, but I'm trying.
Children playing forms the background for child abuse while the world's most shimmery keyboard patch puts a glossy, confectionery coating on getting to close too the seedy streets. I'm remided of all the things I need to fear again, but I nod my head to the rugged drums and shout along: "WE AIN'T SCARED OF YOU!"
A tender case of commitement jitters turns into all-out mad-dog frothing over blatant infidelities. This in turn takes us to a mythical land where every lady is a little bit mocha, a little bit latte and a whole lot of DAMN! (Of course, we have to look over our shoulders to make sure the female friends can't see us rubber-necking.)
The storm clouds brew again as the POWERS THAT BE breathe down our necks and pull our strings; Joe Theisman to the rescue! At the end all I can say is "blah blah blah"; I'm completely spent.
Hands shaking, I take the headphones off, wipe the sweat from my brow, and press play again. It's just that good.
Don't let this album pass you by; you can't afford not to hear it.

Love + Rescue
Cameron Dezen Manufacturer: Olivette Music ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD ASIN: B0009OPMVE Release Date: 2005-05-17 |

Product Description
Equal parts heavy and light, Love+Rescue delights in a thick, pulsating bottom-end juxtaposed against Camerons angelic, often lilting voice, creating a beautiful and mesmerizing tension out of which her poetic, autobiographical lyrics emerge. Fans of Camerons earlier work will love the addition of live instrumentation, most notably piano, acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, and draw-bar organs, each layer working in concert with the electronic elements and walls of cascading vocal harmonies. Two songs remain in the pure, live piano/voice context: Didnt I and Right, Right Now a kept promise to the thousands of people that have only heard her music in that vulnerable, intimate setting.
