Miami-based ArtOfficial consists of Danny Perez on keys, Manny Patino on drums, Ralf Valencia on bass, and Keith Cooper on the saxophone, with vocals provided by emcees Newsense and Logics.
The setup alone beckons the question, “What does a live band with two emcees sound like?” Well, imagine Soulive with a harder edge or The Roots, but jazzier, with more depth, and wildly spontaneous. Envision blending your favorite groups from hip hop’s “golden era” and replacing their sampled beats with jazz musicians. Now, what if those jazz musicians had a knack for creating that boom bap sound that made us all fall in love with hip hop in the first place? This synergy of sound doesn’t have to be imagined. It’s real -- a living, breathing entity that hails from Miami, but thinks globally. Its name is ArtOfficial and its here to make you admire the past and embrace the future.
Assembled from the remnants of two bands, one jazz and one hip hop, ArtOfficial has taken the music scene by storm, implementing its previous musical experiences to quickly achieve what Miami.com says is “the fast track to stardom.” Part of that experience is seen in the band’s stage shows. ArtOfficial’s live performances have earned them a reputation as extraordinary showmen that “get butts moving,” according to the Miami New Times.
In the past year and a half, ArtOfficial has shared the stage with the likes of KRS-One, The Sugarhill Gang, Pharaoh Monch, and Buckshot as well as performing at 2007’s Rock the Bells festival headlined by the Wu-Tang Clan and Nas. In 2009, ArtOfficial won first place at the Florida Grammy Showcase and beat out more than 1,000 bands to earn the second runner-up position in Lollapalooza’s 2008 “Last Band Standing.”
ArtOfficial has recorded a full-length follow up to their much praised and independently released EP, "Stranger.” The album, titled "Fist Fights and Foots Races," is distributed in Japan via Goon Trax/Media Factory and has proved to be a hot seller since its release in early April 2008, peaking at 4 on the Tower Records Charts.
Today, the six-piece crew is constantly performing and adding to an already loyal fan base. ArtOfficial is working on its US release and, according to the band, it’s everything you’d expect from their energetic live shows, but expanded and executed to perfection. When asked about their run-ins with record execs the DIY band says, “We’ve been very successful at handling ourselves so far. We’re going to plot our next move like a game of chess.”

New Release from Section 27 Netlabel [S27-028] ADVIRUZ - NIGHTLY SOUNDS (IDM, Glitch, Experimental)
Adviruz is the artist pseudonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.

There once was a time in the land where the sun was worshiped as god and its embrace with the moon made the earth hold its breath as time stood still in silence, and at that hour the smothered sun shall cloak the whole world in the dead blackness of midnight giving birth to the Element Of Eclipse.
