Description
SUGAR AND GOLD combine classic harmony songwriting with a hook heavy dance music approach making for a sound that draws from 30 years of electronic and soul music, yet is thoroughly modern. San Francisco based, they are quickly making a name for themselves as one of the hottest live tickets in town, their raucous sets never failing to get even the most uptight teasers on the dancefloor.Oakland/Sacto duo WALLPAPER celebrate the release of their new EP on Eenie Meanie Records. Awesome vocoder R&B that must be seen to be believed. "Best way to describe it: Electro-Prog mixed with early nineties New Jack Swing."
"Led by three ladies of the local nightlife scene, HOTTUB is like a whirlpool of fluid rhymes and bubbling beats. With lyrics like 'I used to be an intellectual, but now I'm just into sexual,' the Oakland hip-hop crew began in 2004 with the goal of promoting 'relaxation, bringing guards down, some naughtiness, intimate conversations, jokes, fun and most of all LOVE."
