<p>To call Atari Blitzkrieg eclectic would be a colossal understatement. The Virginia-based artist explores a wide array of soundscapes that leave most speechless when it comes to placing a label on his music. Atari could fill a room with gamers, head bangers and beat poets and please them all.&nbsp; With Technicolor Crime Scenes, Atari does just that. &nbsp;&nbsp; While Atari self-produced a large portion of the album he enlisted the talents of <strong>4th Disciple</strong>, <strong>Krohme</strong>, <strong>Nasa</strong>, <strong>IV the Polymath</strong>, <strong>Willie Green</strong> &amp; <strong>Masai Bey</strong> as well.&nbsp; He also collaborated with <strong>Hell-Razah</strong>, <strong>C-Rayz Walz</strong>, <strong>Breez Evahflowin</strong>, Nasa and Masai on the mic.</p>]]></content></entry><entry><title>The Uncommon Mobile App is Here!</title><category term="Releases"/><category term="Social Networking"/><category term="The Website"/><category term="Uncommon App"/><id>http://www.uncommonmusic.net/news/2013/4/22/the-uncommon-mobile-app-is-here.html</id><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.uncommonmusic.net/news/2013/4/22/the-uncommon-mobile-app-is-here.html"/><author><name>Uncommon Records</name></author><published>2013-04-22T12:16:37Z</published><updated>2013-04-22T12:16:37Z</updated><content type="html" xml:lang="en-US"><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://www.uncommonmusic.net/storage/artist-pics-at-500/uncommonapp.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1366633115533" alt="" /></span></span>We're proud to announce the completion of our Beta-ready <strong>Uncommon Mobile App</strong>!&nbsp; It's available for both <strong>Iphone &amp; Droid</strong> platforms!&nbsp; The app features a non-stop 24/7 stream of Uncommon's catalog that you can now hear....anywhere....for <strong>FREE</strong>.&nbsp; This stream is packed with rareities, classics and our latest releases and will be updated constantly.</p>
