THERE’S
a lot of hype around this band which shot to fame thanks to
a giant web-based fan group. Now they’ve released a CD
for the traditionalists who want more than a digital file
on their computer. The band is pretty funky; check out their
web site at www.articmonkeys.com.

FOR
those not familiar with Mr Rudd, his style is a little Ben Harper,
a little Jack Johnson and a little Donovan. He’s not really
hippy, but his songs are full of meaning and his gentle voice
is very easy to listen to. If you missed his latest tour (Rudd
appeared with Kasey Chambers in Tamworth), grab the CD. |

SURE,
they sound like they belong in an Asterix and Obelix comic,
but Mattafix have got a really easy hip-hop sound. Their female
lead sounds a bit Boney-M – not that there’s anything
wrong with that. If all hip-hop sounded like this, I’d
be a fan.
