Tracks 7 & 8 of Thru the Clouds of Smoke

We are now in the middle of side B of the tracks and artists on the upcoming first vinyl LP release on Twice As High Records, Thru the Clouds of Smoke.

Track 7 of the album comes from the artist Sick Shark (Hive account@sickshark), who primarily records instrumental music with synth and guitar, but also does remixes as well.

In fact, Sick Shark has previously done a remix of Track 1 of Thru the Clouds of Smoke, here it is:

Sick Shark · Juxta - I Fear The Robots (Sick Shark Remix)

It's a bit difficult to describe the genre of music, but Sick Shark makes me feel like I'm in the middle of a very exciting action scene in a movie or a video game. Here's a great moody track of theirs called Tightrope Walker:

Sick Shark · Tightrope Walker

Sick Shark can also bring out the funk when they want, here's a short funky number called Joke that is one of my favorites:

Sick Shark · Joke

In fact, they bring out the action funk for what will be Track 7 of Thru the Clouds of Smoke, here is Groovy Train:

Sick Shark · Groovy Train

So go check out all of Sick Shark's tunes!! Go to their SoundCloud page, and from there you can go to all of their other music outlets, all of it is great!! Go go go!!

Track 8 on Thru the Clouds of Smoke is none other than Double Eagle (Hive account@double-eagle, oh wait that's us!!). Double Eagle is pretty much all I have blogged about on here prior to reviewing the tracks and artists on these upcoming releases, so I am not going to say much. I'll just say we recorded a new mini-album about 2 weeks ago that you should check out here:

Double Eagle · Pine Bluff Sessions

Instead, I'll talk about a close friend of Double Eagle who is allowing us to use a short track of his as the Intro to our track on Thru the Clouds of Smoke, and that reclusive artist is TRL. Here is a great electro composition of his:

TRL · MIXSTER001

He only has 4 tracks on his SoundCloud page at the moment, but I know for a fact that he has a ton of other stuff he's done that should be on there! One of the tracks on the page is a short instrumental called WATS UP SQUIGGER that uses a sample of a rescued squirrel named Squigger who made a crazy noise when he saw a cat outside. Squigger made it back in alive, but TRL killed it on this beat!! This is the track that is the intro for Track 8 on Thru the Clouds of Smoke, here is Whatchu Gonna Do About It? (Feat. TRL intro):

We're almost there, two more tracks and artists to review and all of the tracks will have been revealed, so stay tuned for the next post when we review Alonewolf and Black Eye Butterfly and their tracks to close out the compilation!!
