    .......... .. .. .. ............Buy TYPICAL on itunes!...... ........ .. .. .. ......ROCK ROCK ROCK...... .......... .. .. .. .. ...... When Matt Garappolo and Eddie Garcia Garza started writing songs together in college in 2000, they realized that rock music was to become much more than just a hobby for them.

In 2003, the duo met former Artichoke drum machine and with that, the One and Only Typicals, a.k.a. the O.A.O.Ts, were born into the Los Angeles music scene. In 2005 the drum machine was thrown out and Ricky Tubb of Waking Hours Fame, who is by the way the coolest life form in this or any other universe or dimension, seemingly so un-attainable, like a golden god, was amazingly recruited to make pussyless rock. .. Citing influences such as the Who, the Jam, Guided By Voices, Superdrag, the Replacements, Husker D and the Pixies, the O.A.O.Ts quickly gained a reputation throughout the LA rock community for their riveting live shows, unparalleled energy and deafening onstage roar. Their number one goal is to write perfect songs and entertain everyone around them. .. In September 2004 they finished their 13 song debut Typical, on their own Sounds Like Vinyl Records with the help of producer Matt Southwell (BANG sugar BANG), engineer Robin Holden (The King Cheetah), and mixer Evan Frankfort (Would Work Sound). Filled with pop hooks and rootsy jangle, like a paisley-powered Jam, mixing up Who-inspired skinny tie herky-jerkiness with a little 80s power pop, (Sleazegrinder) the record arrived to immediate and positive response in LA as well as nationally and internationally. The release of Typical was followed by 3 nationwide tours. In April of 2006 the group finished their follow up to Typical, Riot in My Head, a 15 song blast of energetic, melodic power pop infused rock and roll. Produced by Robin Holden, (2006 DIY Producer of the Year), Riot in My Head captures the O.A.O.Ts genuine songwriting while delivering the raw edge of the bands live performances. In the summer of 2006 they left the depths of Los Angeles hell and moved to the new scene of New York City. There they met Joe Borges, amazing drummer and friends with such greats as the Screaming Females and Plastic East. Now theyrip the faces off anyone in New York who wants to get rocked. Hard. But beautifully.

    Dear music supervisor,

    New Release:
    I Know Now
    on
    Not Only Street Records

    The native-born Jamaican Marvin Anthony Burnett aka Sledgy was born in St. James at September, 27th in 1973.
    At the age of sixteen he came with his brother to Germany to stay with his mother and live a better life. Shortly afterwards young Anthony got down with rapping.
    To do music brings a lot of joy to him. Music is a great pleasure for Sledgy; he feels committed to make music.

    It helped him through his hard time after his entry into Germany which was totally foreign to him at that time.
    After he had rapped a long time for himself to take his mind off his worries, Burnett signed a contract with the label Power Jam Records.
    With conclusion of the treaty his music career begins.

    Under the name of Marvin Burnett he performs onstage (YOU) two times and at Funworld, Bodensee. Furthermore his music appeared on Radio K?ln and Radio 7.
    For two years he has been under contract to Power Jam Records which is known as GUMAK Media e.K. today.

    The Jamaican Burnett is also charitable. He gave many benefit performances, among others at K?lner Zoo, in a retirement home and not least at town hall in Cologne- Kalk.
