Hydroponikz Features on re:plus Track – Time Goes By

Check out the new MV for the song ‘Time Goes By’ by re:plus featuring Hydroponikz on the verses and Anika Hazel on the hook. It’s a beautifully arranged track but it’s too bad none of the artists are in the video (that I can tell anyways).

The track is off re:plus’s album Everlasting Truth, available on iTunes (Japan?) 3/3/10. The song actually reminds me a lot of the recent collab of Kero One and Anan Ryoko. Gorgeous instrumentation paired with smooth, laid back rhymes. These international collabos are killing it!

AJ Rafael Releases New Song – ‘(500) Days’

AJ Rafael’s got a brand new track to share and it’s called ‘(500) Days’. You can probably already guess what inspired the song from the title. The video quality is so friggn crisp here, I’m loving it. Personally I’m digging the writing but I think I need to let the melody grow on me.  Perhaps I should actually see the movie, maybe then I’d connect with the song more haha. Hopefully this is the first of many new songs to come!

this song was inspired heavily by the movie “(500) Days of Summer”. this is the first song i’ve written since “When We Say (Juicebox)”! so i was so excited to finally put this up. hope you enjoy the nods to the movie within my lyrics. =)
