New Wax Podcast Listens to Various Hands & Rouzy Rouz

On this episode of New Wax…we learn that New Wax really is all about feelings!

Joe just went 2 rounds with Mike Tyson (not really but it sounds better than what really happened) and tries to do the show with 2 cracked ribs. We talk about Luppy and his vlog “Living Luppy,” where we learn about his (and Carl’s) weight loss.

And make sure to check out Joe’s new web site!

Than we cover the band “Various Hands.”   The are a band out of St. Louis, Missouri. Their music is catchy and appealing

and will make you want to move your body in a convulsive type of way that might otherwise be considered “dancing” while at the same time it touts uniqueness and fresh energy that is becoming a lost art in today’s industry. Various Hands combines an indie dance rock style of music with singer/guitarist Jeff Nations’ signature life-is-good lyric motif. Guitarist Zach Meier and drummer Ben Pitts round out a lineup of experienced, seasoned musicians. Their debut EP, This Party Will Be Fun., solidifies Various Hands’ feel-good message, upbeat rhythms and otherwise unorthodox views on what life (and music) should consist of and be recognized for these days.

 

We go on to cover Luppy’s release of “Fireworks,” which you can get in iTunes, or right here in the New Wax store.

After that we cover Rouzy Rouz  He released his first mixtape in July 2011 “Duty Calls” and received much recognition for his work and was signed under management with MTV’s very own Shawn Isaac. In less than a year Rouzy Rouzhad the opportunity to work with tophip hop artists, engineers, and producers in the industry and released his new hit single “Dance On Me”

I hope you like the show!

And a big shout out to 76th Street Podcast, for the awesome review in iTunes!

Reviewing Ill-literacy & King Kenoah!

This week on the New Wax Podcast Luppy fills us in on the stand-up comedy he has been doing (you can see more at www.youtube.com/luppy1). We talk about ill-iteracy and how he sounds like 90’s style hip-hop.

And I am pretty sure that Joe calls me old…who is he talking to??

 

Than we dive into King Kenoah. He is making that club music, what do the crew of New Wax think about that?

The few things that did come out of the conversation is that every song has to have a good hook, as well as a good web presences. Joe (who is pushing 30k followers on Twitter) talks about how important web sites and social media are for independent musicians.

 

We come up with our first t-shirt  “New Wax Podcast: Word to YOUR Mother,” and Joe professes Lil’John is his personal hero!

As for King KeNoah, he started his career in California at a young age. Not knowing how to produce or engineer at the time, his talent as a rapper granted him access to some of the local studios in his neighborhood. He quickly became known for his delivery and stinging rap style and his ability to connect with those in and out of the streets. This popularity made him known as the go to guy when other artists needed to cross over into the pop scene. His mass appeal to all sectors of society grew his fan-base exponentially.

 

Building on his rapping skills in the studio, he began to pay careful attention to the mix and mastering engineers; learning about EQ, compression, serial/parallel and mid-side buss processing, along with other studio techniques the fans are not privilege to. He developed his engineering skills and began to mix and master all of his own music, along with those of other artists. This created a more personal experience for him with his music and he began to write songs that involved some of the most personal aspects of his life for all to hear, love, and hate.

 

This new approach rejuvenated his career and caused energy to surge throughout his fan-base. He quickly developed some hard core, die hard fans throughout California. He continued building upon his skill set: rapping evolved into songwriting, learning visual communication through photography & videography, and engineering become producing and sound designing. At this crucial point when he picked up the craft of production and he took on the responsibility of making the melody and studying music theory did he become a musician, and not just a rapper. The industry quickly took notice and the executives began talking about this rising star.

 

This unique personal experience that his fans have with him through his music is currently unavailable in the music scene where 10,20, even 30 people maybe involved with the creation of the song, not including the promotion team. King KeNoah is directly involved in every step of the musical process, directs every decision that’s made, and processes every connection with the fans. His music is an extension of him and that is his gift to the world.

 

“We are born to make a difference, in our lives and those of others. Hopefully my music will make people question their beliefs and attitudes and begin to look at how to fix the problems we collectively experience. The youth are our future, but we, are the creators of theirs.”
