Jayhawks Everywhere...

Whats up peeps? Just got to Lawrence Kansas on the Party Rock Tour across the nation. Last night in Lincol, Nebraska was great. We have never been there so it was a good feeling to have the people chant Shwayze before we hit the stage in a spot we haven't hit yet. Today is an exercise in the science of manifest destiny. I am a rider on the Zavuya once again. I woke up and walked out of the bus and grabbed a salmon scramble at my favorite spot to eat here in Lawrence, a little coffee shop called Miltons. After that I felt like it was time to get some laundry done. So i take a stroll to find out where the local Fluff n Fold is and I run into two coeds running errands. i ask them where i could find an establishment of thius sort and without hesitation, one of them says..."I'll do your laundry!" BAM! She had a ticket to the show but her friend didn't so I said I would hook em up with a ticket in exchange for the laundry lovin'. Mutually beneficial much the same as a whale and a barnacle. This is called symbiosis. It doesnt stop there. After that I figured it might be nice to splurge on a hotel room for a shave and a shower at the lcoal Holiday Inn. So I decide to stick my thumb out and hitch a ride over there. BAM! A car pulls up and a dude who recently got laid off from his job and spends his days collecting unemployment and fishing at the local watering hole says hell run me over to the spot. He asks who we are and when we tell him it turns out he is a recent Shwayze convert who heard us on Pandora radio and was thnking about buying a ticket to the show but didnt have enough money. BAM! He got hooked up and I got a shower. Sy-sy-sy-symbiotic ya'll! And of course the beat goes on. So Im on the way with our new homie and I see a golf course and say "it would be nice to catch 9 holes or so today if we time..." So naturally when I walk into the pimp ass seventies stylee Holiday Inn it is only right that there is a 9 hole mini golf course in the lobby... I am on a role at this point so I dont see a problem with trying a little shot in the dark and ask the lobby chick if I could just grab a room for a half day rate to wash my body off...what do you know? BAM!!!! She says cool and i get the much needed shower and a little downtime on a comfy bed to blog to my people. Surfin' the Zavuyah...the water is warm and the waves are kickin'...

Love ya,
Cisco

LET IT BEAT REVIEW - The Musiqtone Blog

Since the release of their debut album in 2008 “Shwayze” Shwayze have made quite a name for themselves. Performing concerts nationwide and costarring with Cisco Adler on the MTV reality show “Buzzin”, the Malibu, CA hip-hop duo seem to be an unstoppable force. In just a year’s time the two have grown to be American heartthrobs: singing their way into young girl’s hearts.

Keeping true to their roots, their new album “Let it Beat” consists of songs mostly about encounters with girls. Unlike their previous album though, they turn from their usual acoustic beats to experiment with a more electronic upbeat sound. Don’t get me wrong though, the usual kick-back acoustic songs dominate most of the album; only a few tend to have pop undertones.

The single “Get U Home” is an undeniably a future chart climber. The new pop-style they are trying out is definitely working out for them. With just a few listens, the lyrics are stuck in your head. You find yourself moving to the beat of the song as soon as it begins to play. Like most pop songs, “Get U Home” is something you can listen to anytime, especially at a party. This new fun upbeat sound is shown in not only “Get U Home”, but also songs such as “Maneater” and “Dirty Girl”.

Don’t worry though, if your one to like the classic “Buzzin” Shwayze, they don’t disappoint in this album. With songs, such as “Sally Is A…” and “Perfect for Me”, the dynamic duo encompasses the easy-going spirit of California and young-love perfectly. Their slow-downed tunes are perfect for a relaxing day at the beach, especially is song featuring Snoop Dogg, “Livin’ it Up”.

Whether you’re looking for an album to chill out to after a hard day’s work or dance to at this weekend’s party, “Let it Beat” is the perfect choice. Shwayze is able to recreate the same sentiment of their original album, while throwing their fans a couple curveballs with a whole new pop-style. “Let It Beat” hits stores November 3rd and is definitely an album worth checking out.

VIKING REMIX + VIDEO FOR "GET U HOME"

THIS IS AMAZING!
It's so dope to hear what other people do with ur tunes on remixes...
VIKING KILLED IT!

LET IT BEAT REVIEW BY "SEX 4 EARS"

Yes, he's back ALREADY, and he's changed. Where Shwayze's debut was more about sunshine, backyard parties, and life in Malibu, Let It Beat focuses mostly on club-friendly electronic, rock, and hip hop music. Good move I say, and each track has it's individual shtick which creates a dynamic and different experience for the listener.

It will please most existing Shwayze fans, and earn him legions and legions more. Much kudos to Cisco Adler too for his brilliant production and songwriting on this record, very thoughtful and stylised.

Let's just hope Madonna doesn't sue him for "Dirty Little Girl".[1]

"I just want to try everything I can with music and just expand".
