Tyler Fisher
Tyler is a student at the United World College of the American West in Montezuma, NM, where we have students from over 80 countries in a 200 person student body. Currently, he is only 18 and will graduate from this school in 2010, which is basically the last two years of high school, and then attend university, where he intends to study journalism and music composition.
In his spare time, Tyler enjoys doing things that lanky gingers should never do, such as DJing and playing bass guitar.

This is everything that a good dance album should be: energetic, powerful, and slightly experimental.

Fareed Haque + The Flat Earth Ensemble: Flat Planet
Haque's heritage and education certainly help him in creating a signature blend, but the album is simply too long for its own good.

Grandmaster Flash: The Bridge: The Concept of a Culture
This is not a comeback album that will reinvigorate Flash to enter a brilliant second stage of his career. But appreciate it for the statement it makes.

Balmorhea: All Is Wild, All Is Silent

The-Dream: Love vs. Money
Although perhaps the most album-like R&B album in recent memory, typical R&B pitfalls bring Love vs. Money down from the excellence The-Dream has proven capable of producing.

From Monument to Masses: On Little Known Frequencies
Post-rock fans will enjoy the smooth blend of uptempo groove and slow-burning crescendo, but question what those spoken-word samples are actually saying.

Streetlight Manifesto + A Wilhelm Scream
The venue, the Launchpad, is tight to say the least, so much that the bouncers would not allow any photography in fear of destroyed cameras.

Bell X1: Blue Lights on the Runway
More varied than Flock, Blue Lights on the Runway is the band's latest opus, accomplishing everything their contemporaries have attempted in the last few years in one fell swoop.

The Qemists: Join the Q
Finally, a dance-rock hybrid that is both danceable and musical. Ninja Tune's latest signing reminds us that they are one of the most consistently excellent labels in the game.

Madlib: The Beat Konducta: Vol. 5-6: A Tribute To...
Madlib composes his tribute to J Dilla in a way so similar to Dilla's style and album structure that it feels like he never left.
