Jumbled Unveils "action shots" EP: Introducing Dwell-assisted Bully Preston & Featuring Jack Wilson, Dot Com Intelligence, Nyoka Ny-D & JBerd (Harford & Reckord Tapes)



"Action Shots is the new EP from Baltimore beat-maker Jumbled. Living in a Soundcloud world, collaborations between producers and emcees are trickled out as singles—so in an effort to avoid that, Jumbled compiled [six] new songs together in this EP," Baltimore producer, Power Pop drummer, and high school engineering teacher John Bachman (aka Jumbled) wrote within a recent emailed press release. Maybe most notably, Bachman's Action Shots EP marks the premier of his latest rapper-producer duo, Bully Preston formed with one half of Dwell & salk. from his The Witzard-premiered [I wish it was longer] single, "Train of Thought." "He misspoke when asking about a Billy Preston beat and it stuck (pretty obvious), but I think he's recorded 4-5 songs already and more to come," Jumbled said, as he detailed the origins of Bully Preston's name; a minor faux pas on Dwell's part, when once referring to "Fifth Beatle" and legendary Rock "N" Roll and Soul-Funk electric piano and keyboard player, Billy Preston. It seems as though in addition to "Bang The Bongo," Jumbled says that he and Dwell have about 4-5 more songs recorded and stashed, which may eventually end up turning into either a proper Bully Preston EP or full-length.


Action Shots EP additionally features the sharp-tongued rhyming talents of Southern Maryland emcee Dot Com Intelligence—whom Jumbled met at a recent MGNTK. Champion Sound label showcase, ferocious femcee Nyoka Ny-D, Frederick-based spitter JBerd, and long-time friend Jack Wilson, who selected "Time to Shake 'em"'s beat "ages ago, but revisited it recently." Now, I have to admit, I'm a bit biased, as John Bachman is a close personal friend, frequent collaborator, and generous Baltimore music-funneling business associate; since meeting Jumbled earlier this year, we've worked closely together on a number of projects, including a profile on his recently revived Power Pop band Soft Peaks, an interview surrounding his impeccable [I wish it was longer] album, and its companion Dwell & salk.-assisted "Train of Thought" music video, which I was proud to be able to premier right here at The Witzard. Jumbled's Action Shots EP is currently available for streaming or download from his Boom-Bap-laden personal Soundcloud page, just in time for the weekend, and be sure to keep an eye and ear out for Bully Preston's impending EP or album-length project!

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra
