Hot on and hot for Jango Radio! Jango is my favorite (and most often ignored) online streaming system, comparable to pandora, last.fm, and rdio. It’s all free and you can tune into other people’s custom crafted streams or build your own. Either way the mix is good, the selection is deep, and what sets Jango apart is they play independent artists mixed with the classics and majors.
Yes it’s pay to play but indies get worldwide airplay for pennies. Plus it is easy to opt out, gives great stats, and lets you interact with fans. All artists get paid royalties too. Great platform overall.
The best part of Jango Radio? 2MERICA is a popular artist, streaming 10+ songs to the planet and consistently scoring good reviews. We’ve been in their top charts 7 straight weeks and about 35 weeks total last year. So click over and tune in, see what it’s all about.
Ok, you know that Scherzo Elskorpion is a 5 song LP featuring a sicko version of 2MERICA. You know that the first 2 of the 5 tracks are released and available everywhere. You might even wait around 2 more years for the completion.
But you now know that 2MERICA has launched anew with new tracks, a new style lineup, better gear, less sense, and more skills. There is no timeline set yet but the early tracks are so sly and nice, hot like Florida patios, smooth like Carlos Santanas organically conditioned hair.
Oh man a fly just committed suicide in my hand, tried to stop my finger flick and got juiced. Ouch gross can’t pick my nose with that finger anymore –ezraz. Ps I have some solo instrumental stuff coming out under Ezraz – stay tuned for links and artwork.
UPDATE 1 – Want to be in 2merica? Just get in the soundcloud, dl this track, and get to work.
“Keep Steady”, the 2nd scene from 2MERICA’s incremental-elpee Scherzo Elskorpion, is out on iTunes and most of the other digital stores. Download now and inject into your explicit earholes. The video is in production and should be online soon.
“Never Met Tomorrow” kicked off our story, and “Keep Steady” moves us to through to the subsequent night. There will be three more vignettes to explore before concluding this tale. Before the end of the 2011 we’ll get #3 out the door, so enjoy this trip through the 2MERICAN sonic landscape. (We also recommend you adjust your mp3 tags to put them together as an album.)
“Keep Steady” features an all-star 2MERICA lineup: Jaimeson 7M on vocals, Jesus Irizarry on electric bass, Mistaswift on vdrums, J. on sax, plus beats and standup bass by Ezraz and funky guitar by Zane. Enjoy you some.
It has begun it’s journey through the tubes of the internet, fresh from a session at The All Night Party and sounding so tasty. You will need to cue it up right after “Never Met Tomorrow” for part 2 of Scherzo Elskorpion, the 3rd 2MERICA LP in progress.
We can’t link to buy or even preview yet since those links don’t exist. Just wanted to drop some pre-release hype onto the internut to show some charisma. C’mon people! Update: CDBaby failed the DNA test but we still love it.
Wow, the 2MERIMIX OPEN MIND NITE @ The Duck last night has left all involved groggy and probably a bit irritable, but time marches on, the beat goes on, the show must go on, etc.. Thankfully two bits of progress in the battle against irrelevance came through today:
– First off the next 2MERICA single just left the mastering engineer and it’s making it’s way to the tubes of the internets. Titled “Keep Steady”, it’s the 2nd of 5 tracks from the Scherzo Elskorpion LP. It’s also the ‘sex scene’ in the soundtrack so check it out! Like most 2MERICA songs, it’s a curveball that turns into a knuckleball right before you swing and miss, so yeah, stay tooned for the latest and greatest. This track is an old school sick jam with Jesus on bass, Swifty on the v-drums, some killer sax from J, Jaimeson doing his dirty rap, lil’ Z on guitars, and Ezraz supplying the remaining noise. It should be available for purchase at the usual suspects (iTunes, cdbaby, amazon) and for streaming (Napster, Spotify, and Jango) in about a month.
– Secondly, the process of ‘going legit’ (aka getting our chit together) has continued, with a parent company formed to manage the Flux-adel Recording Division and all of it’s various progressions and proclivities. You the faithful internet cruiser won’t notice or care about this, but we are all proud and wanted to make the announcement. Collinwood Sun LLC has risen.
So yeah. My manager Fahqfasse finally got some stuff done. I get to hang out back and pee on his office, the mighty brick fortress known as FF Bookman Promotions. Which is my little way of posting status updates on his wall.

ps – here’s something to cheer you up, the unforgettable Cee-Lo Green has had me singing this hook for 3 days now!
If you get comcast cable in the US they are pushing a new channel called “The A&R Channel” which features up and coming artists’ videos and news. They have selected the 2MERICA video Extraordinary Rendition for rotation, so check it out and report back!
Featuring Participatory Art & Improvisational Music
Bring yourself to attend this small situation featuring Ezraz of 2MERICA. Anything can happen and your participation is required. An event score will be available at the show.
Been messing with this lately, pretty cool. It makes radio stations for you (like Pandora) except it includes independent artists and really pushes socializing and sharing playlists, etc..
Check out the 2MERICA profile and peep the service. I also hear they have an iphone client coming soon.
CLEVELAND, OHIO – The man known as “King James” shocked the sports world today by announcing he would forego his NBA free agency and instead sign with little known team The 2merican Dirt Devils. Potentially sacrificing hundreds of millions of dollars, Lebron says this unheralded move was done “just for the funk of it.”
This amazing development, the latest in James’ contractual ballyhoo that has gone into a fever pitch since Wednesday, is unheralded in the sports world even for a number 23. But unlike the process so far, this begs even more questions. Who are the Dirt Devils? What and where is 2merica? What does Kobe think?
For some answers on this rapidly developing story, we turned to Fugfayz Bookman, commissioner of the EBA, the league that sponsors the 2mericans. This mysterious basketball league won’t divulge where they hold their games, the current standings, or even what the E stands for, but Mr. Bookman claims LeBron will fit right in. “We started a fight club, but with basketballs.” When pressed about the ability of the Dirt Devils to match the Cleveland Cavaliers’ multimillion dollar budget and lavish treatment of it’s superstar players, Mr. Bookman boasted “We use eBay alot, so we have some nice stuff.”
The only other EBL player making himself available to the press is Ezrazmus Jones, a forward for the 2merican squad and biggest star (until now). “We are excited” said the calm EzRaz, whose mercurial and magical nature on court has earned him the nickname “Elemento”. “LeBron is a great Ohio Player so he should fit right in. I walk past that huge-ass sign of his all the time and I like it.” When asked if he could release any further information on the team or the management he laughed and declined, but he did direct us to his compuserve electronic mail account. He then said “Twitter my gopher” and ended the interview.
Finally replying to our queries through email, Jones continued to boast about his team, seemingly unaware of the hoopla surrounding him and the situation. “We have some great young talent to add to the mix so it should be a killer year. Both Jak “DirtyHott” Hanksta and Dragon Mikocovic are young ballers, and we know Coach Rudy will work them in quickly.”
Coach Rudolph Irisarzo is the man tasked with incorporating James’ amazing talent. “I accept this challenge. It is a sign. LeBron will be surrounded with talent, a great group of guys.” The King and two rookies will join an established core of big red Jaimeson “Sevenem” Lowell down low and Louie “Stonerock” Heat setting the tempo. Unlike the NBA, there will be plenty of balls to go around. “Now, the adjustment won’t be easy” opines Irisarzo, “so we gone ‘head and hired a personal liason for Lebron, a great fella named Jesus. LeBron will feel right at home with Jesus on speed-dial.”
Stay tuned basketball fans as this story will be updated with breaking news. Surely you should refresh this story and yourself often. ¥Associated Pruss 2010
