 Teaches
of Peaches [Bonus Disc]
Originally from Canada, Peaches first rose to prominence
in the Berlin Beat Box scene of the mid-90s. Her combination
of raunchy, funny lyrics with really tight beat box programming
collides with punk rock sensibilities for the freshest sound
I've heard in a long time. This little
fruit is RIPE. "F**K the Pain Away" was her
first single. Followed by "AA XXX". You can also
preview her songs, "Rock Show" "Set It Off"
and the Big Beat influenced, "Cum Undun" If you
want to hear the buzzy, contagious, "Diddle my Skittle"
or the introspective, spacey, tripped out "Lovertits",
you can buy
the CD, "Teaches of Peaches"
The Streets
Rudimentary raps and an inauthentic voice are easily overlooked
issues when listening to The Streets. Their conversational
rap style has been so innovative that their first single reinvigorated
the whole South London House scene which has been coasting
a bit since the filter disco thing hit about five years ago.
I think that it will be quite awhile before the US is ready
for The Streets and it looks like they're positioning themselves
for the college radio market. Speed Garidge hasn't really
found a foothold here as most Americans prefer the slower,
more completely soulful stylings of the original Garage style
House or the more upfront distinctions between rap and R&B.
 My
friends make music too.
Since I have this really great platform to promote my pals,
I figured I would create a page to showcase their talents...
