An Alternate Universe Where The Rap Music Industry Is Bound By Secrecy And Conspiracy

O'Fallon, MO (Kuneo Koei) February 18th, 2010 - Sekrett Scilensce Associates (Kuneo Koei) is proud to announce the release of "IN5" the first single from the Rap/Hip-Hop album "The Rapman's Attire".
Below is the opening summary from the product-page:

* "Darkness bloomed beneath the border of trees along the two-lane blacktop, camouflaging the black sedans parked beneath. Two men stood nearby, speaking in the subdued and measured tones of men well versed in clandestine meetings. The larger of the two ground a cigarette out with the sole of his shoe. "I want him out of the race, if he wins; we lose control of the Senate."
The smaller man nodded. "What do you want me to tell the President?"
"Nothing…" the larger man said. "If he shows any signs of making trouble, remind him that he never really had any say anyway."
Does a shadow government exist? Have the powerful become the brokers of our existence, trading peace, war, and money to secure their positions?"

* All music and vocal production plus performances are reported as composed and recorded by Sekrett Scilensce, who is also a collaborator on many other developments related to literary and video-game publishing.

Alongside the rollouts of extended offerings under the MMP Publishing (Kuneo Koei) brand, Sekrett Scilensce states, "The Rapman's Attire" should not be viewed as a competitor to record-label and music-publisher catalogues.

"Listening pleasure is what we guarantee," composer and producer Sekrett Scilensce said. "We are honored and proud to serve Rap-music production with flavorings of classical, R&B, and electronic styling. In the end, bringing back the styles of Freestyle, New Jack Swing, and High-NRG with modern Hip-Hop is a blast."

The current scheduling for releases from "The Rapman's Attire" are listed as "In5" (February 2010), "Whose Watching?" (March 2010) to be followed by "Control" (April 2010) and "The Wasteland" (May 2010); additional releases are listed into November but have been labeled for extended announcement after May 2010.

First Ever Official LovEvolution Compilation CD

The 14 track compilation CD LovEvolution is a work of love indeed. The CD, which hit the streets on October 1, 2009, features original tracks from various internationally renowned Electronic Dance Music artists. The proceeds from sales of LovEvolution will be donated to the Beat University Electronic Music Scholarship Fund in San Francisco, the first ever of its kind in the United States.

The first track, "The Ice Dance" by Bachelors of Science is fast, frenzied, and has a vocal melody in the background. "So Far" by Miguel Migs is one that you immediately want to get up and dance to - it's definitely a "feel good song with a funky beat and a good vocal performance. "The Future Sound of Retro" by Lee Coombs is a 'do you want to go crazy boogying' number, while the "Art of Revolution" gives the album an infusion of reggae. "Pitch Bitch" has a nice beat, and I'm guessing that if you could hook this one up to a heart monitor, the graph would be all over the place. "Defcon" has a futuristic sound to it, while "Sassy Frass" by DRC and DJ Denise has more of a New York club vibe.

"Cheer Up" will get your head bopping and booty shaking and I loved the keyboards on this little number. "Santiago" by Stoneface and Terminal and, "Phenomenon" by Deep Voices are classic electronic tracks, with the latter having a strong drum beat and electronic vocals. Christopher Lawrence's "Continuation" makes you want to do just that - continue listening to it. But, with LovEvolution, you have to keep on going. The CD ends with "Dub Divider" by Chromatone, "The Awakening" by Dissolve aka Liam Shy, and my personal favorite, "Spaceman."

All in all, LovEvolution is a solid CD from experienced artists. It's for a good cause, and it's for a good time. Enjoy!
