Brother Story: Leftfield

Leftfield's American in Paris is one of the best CDs of 2009.  if you haven't heard it, i'll be sure to hook you up by the end of this post.  if you're nice.

the atlanta-based hip-hop duo was born in greenville, south carolina  and blends their southern roots masterfully with influences from across the nation and around the world, "because someone out there in leftfield seems to be listening"... i guess that officially makes me someone.  i was getting worried there for a second.

Leftfield, through their sound and lyrical content, speaks to the listener who knows good music in any package.  so i'll skip the part where i tell you what to expect and who you might compare them to.  suffice it to say you'll get solid beats and provocative lyrics.  and maybe those are expectations.  but dare i say those are expectations we should have of all music...

and because you were nice, you can get the entire CD for FREE...just email Leftfield and mention SisterGarten in the body of the email.  free music in a recession?!?  the woman must be mad!!!  take advantage.

Rhythm,
This is an awesome CD. I was fortunate to get a copy. You are so right about their being in tune with the world and what's going on. They have a unique sound and quality that has been lost in our most recent artist. Thanks to "Leftfield" for being on fire and lighting up the darkness. You gotta hear it folk!!!

It is nice to hear music with strong lyrical content combined with good beats. I am glad to read that someone else has discovered the conscious and informative style of Leftfield. I will definitely email them for a copy of their new CD.
