So if you don’t know what this post is about, every week I will give you guys a rundown on what is happening with The One21 Music. A few months ago, we added a bunch of features to this website, so the work that we are doing on here is not always very obvious. These end-of the-week posts are for you benefit so that you never miss ANYTHING on this site.

Remember, at any time feel free to contact us through our “Contact Us” tab there at the top of the page. If you have a suggestion for an artist we should be paying attention to, a video we should, and critique about the site itself, please hit us up.

Secondly, I want to explain something you guys may not… Continue reading

Voices Of The Underground is a series that seeks to explore one question from many different angles. Every week, we will ask one question of many of your favorite music artists. We will post their responses below, and what you will find is that there is never truly one answer to every question, but instead a whole world of ideas that come from simple matters of taste, to deep held beliefs. Our hope is that through this series you are able to see past the promo pictures and the stage persona, and get to know the hearts of believers who are creating music every day.

So a long time ago (well it seems like a long time ago for me), in February, we as a website were beginning to pick up a little steam. One of seemingly ongoing features that we were beginning to offer every week was these full album downloads that we found from all over the net.  One of our favorites came from a same indie folk band out of Nashville called Brian Lee & His Orchestra.  Their free download of Vol.I has been a staff favorite around here since before we posted it.  Check out Vol.I by Brian Lee & His Orchestra

Well, here we are some great amount of time later, and Brian Lee & His Orchestra has another… Continue reading | 1 Comment

Hello to all the amazing people who read our site, we love you. Really, your participation in this website makes everything worth it.  Every time you visit, it counts as only good stuff for us as a group.  So, thank you….

If you will remember, a few months back, we announced that we were going to tone things down a little bit on the site.  At the time, we were putting up three posts a day, beginning to build our artist database, and trying to manage our emerging “ezine” persona.  In all honesty, we never intended to use The One21 as a magazine-type website. Our original idea for this blog was to simply communicate our passion and try to begin to introduce the world to a larger perspective of “Christian music”in… Continue reading

Our first question is one that appeared in the last season

So this is kind a strange little offering. I think it is by Deepspace5/Ill Harmonics member Playdough. There arnt any words, this album is social commentary through beats and samples. That’s the best way I can describe it, seriously.  But it is different, something to tickle the brain with, and it’s free so you may just want to try it out..

For fans of: DJ Shadow, Mars Ill, Jurassic 5
