11 A.M. – “Troubleshooting (Teddy Faley Remix)” mp3
Bend your mind around this. An electronic hip-hop post modern beat poet meltdown with outlandishly fiendish dubwise dubstep punktronic sonic belligerence. Deeply hilarious and poignant lyrics splattered over innovative and fearless musical calamities. Top notch off the grid under the radar not so mainstream better than that other next sh!t. Bust it.

The Volumes – “Teenage Paradise” mp3
Here’s s’more gr8 northern soul über-pop for yr purty earballs. With elements of doo-wop, rock n’ roll, R n’ B and heaping buckets of fine sugar syrup, The Volumes had a string of regional hits in the Detroit area in the late 1950′s and early 1960′s on Twirl Records. Twirl, which hit the big time in 1961 with Del Shannon’s unstoppable “Runaway,” was a classic independent record label, indie and D.I.Y. long before anyone said the words “indie” or “D.I.Y.” In keeping with the label’s lo-cost, hi-badass approach, they now maintain a website which lovingly details the label’s history, discography, artist bios and more. “Teenage Paradise” is a lesser known gem from their catalog, recently re-released in a compilation series, which I just can’t seem to get enough of.

Vera Lynn – “The White Cliffs of Dover” mp3
This is a special treat, sung by the great Vera Lynn. “(There’ll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs of Dover” was a hit before America entered World War II. The song, composed by a trio of English songwriters, was written to uplift the spirits of the Allies, as Nazi Germany overran much of Europe, and Great Britain was being bombed. It was a terrible time, yet this lyric rang with such calm and confident optimism, that it was embraced as a sort of anthem for better days to come. Over the White Cliffs of Dover, at the time, there were dogfights between British and German aircraft. Hence the lovely image of bluebirds replacing the war-birds, in time of peace. An extraordinary and beautiful recording.

Music is my passion, and I bask in its sonic glow everyday. There has been so much stupendous music made recently, regardless of the shriveling record industry.
This GR8 music has somehow been ignored and relegated to a second-class status it honestly doesn’t deserve. Being the uber-fan that I am, I found it necessary to blog about this attention-worthy music. Because of my immense passion, I feel like it’s my sole responsibility to take you directly to as much of this music as I can find. I just want to share the fun with fellow music lovers, while helping the music creators.
I have found a free legal MP3 download for each song I post. The artist approves of the free download. These artists hope you like their music enough to buy some. If you don’t, the artist still thanks you for taking the time to listen to their music.
Makes sense, right?
So I’m Superfan.
I give you a link to free legal MP3s, and I get to help spread the word for artists.
If you don’t find any music you love, you’ll get your money back. Guaranteed!

From the time I discovered there was a world of great music seething beyond my brother’s record collection, I have spent the majority of my energy exploring music that is new to me. I grew up listening to hip-hop, electronic and jazz. By the time I was 14 I started bedroom DJing. During high school I started my perpetual mixtape quest. Eventually I amassed enough gear and dirty-used records to turn what should have been a laundry room into a home studio. Two of my songs where deemed worthy enough to be included in Fun Fun Fun Recording’s
Mp3 Jackpot Winners Vol. 1 –
“Meditations (by a father)” and
“Sick“. It was during that exciting time that I first heard of the MP3 format. I immediately saw how artists like myself would be able to exploit the new technology as a vehicle for delivering music straight to music lovers. Subverse2ten is the latest medium that I use for discovering, filtering and distributing new music to music fans who find themselves always slightly ahead of the curve. I still hold the same enthusiasm and love of new music as I did when I was a kid. I hope you enjoy the music you find here as much as I do.

Survival Oakland

In a time and place where virtual hustle has devolved into clicks, plays and arbitrary photos of youngsters portraying something they’re NOT, Survival’s blog serves as ground zero for post-modern metalism. Metalism, that sonic punch that, when it hit, you missed. Then when it hit again, you still missed.
Instead of adding this site to your friend’s list and continuing some miniscule internet existence in a virtually impoverished ghetto of media, just hit up this page to hear some of the heaviest, crunchiest shit that indies, majors, and nobodies are offering in the Bay, the Nation, and Beyond – for Free.
Survival is a speed, thrash, groove, power, sex, pain metal group from the Bay Area started in 2009.
The style grows from the classic bay area speed metal sound, but with more eccentric and enigmatic energy to bruise your receptors.
