"Aliens with Amnesia" Interview with J-Punch and Dave Moonshine, Ep 125

J-Punch and Dave Moonshine was created by former veteran underground DJ, Justin (J-Punch) of Washington, D.C. and his co-writer, Dave Moonshine from Los Angeles.

J-Punch and the Moonshine debut their first CD called, Stick Figure Guy. The CD is full of smooth House and Ambient elements mixed with a sort of Alt-pop and Alternative rock. Their unique sound is just what it is.

Music from Stick Figure is so unique it is difficult to compare them with anyone else in the industry, but they do have a familiar sound. More importantly, it’s both likable and addicting. If I had to compare J-Punch and Dave Moonshine with someone else in the industry, it would have to be The Cure, Depeche Mode, Howard Jones, and 6 Feet Underground. Throw them all in a tall wooden bucket and churned them into a soft butter and mix it with some Enigma (without the Gregorian chants).

Gabe Lopez CD Release of "Shine Like the Sun" interview with Mikey Jayy, Ep 118

Gabe Lopez is a Pop Rock / Dance artist from Los Angeles, CA. He's not just a singer, but he's an excellent writer and producer.

In 2008, Gabe release his first album entitled, "This is About You", but his true talent is revealed in his album just released today called, Shine Like the Sun.

Shine Like the Sun, not only sounds better engineered, it reflects Gabe's maturity as a developed artist. Songs like "Boomerang" with it's club flare, he also gives his listeners a variety, including my personal favorite, "Into the Sun" for the orchestra ensemble quality, which show he's risen above sounding like other artists and honed in on his own identity. The song that really impressed me was, "No Hate". Just like the title, the song reflects the frustration related to Proposition 8 and how it generated so much hate against the LGBT community. Gabe Lopez was asked to write a song that represented their peaceful movement against a law that promoted hate disguised as "family values". Not only is it an entertaining song, it shows that he is also a gifted writer.

Listen to special live CD release interview with Gabe Lopez on The Great Unknowns Presents. Hear exclusive music only heard on this show.

Songs on the show include: "Boomerang", "No Hate", "Masquerade", and "Saboteur".
