Are You in Kid?
Hifi Mojo's "Are You In, Kid?" is the creation of veteran Portland drummer and singer Marty Henninger. Started as a project to show his kids a person can make and sell their own music, his music takes a semi-autobiographical view of his experiences in the last decade. By turns serious and humorous, he delved into blues, rhythm and blues, jazz and gospel to write a collection of songs that described life in middle America in the first decade of the 21st century. From the anger in "Smoke and Mirrors" and "Two Paychecks from the Street", the humor in "Lost your Place" or the poignancy of "Hunker Down "or "Last Time I Saw Phil", Hifi Mojo mixes the rich soil of American music to reflect on a middle class slowly being destroyed by greed and stupidity. As Marty said, "This is about peoples' lives in America now. We're in a poker game playing against a house full of wealth and power, but who deals from a stacked deck. We're playing for our way of life." The stakes couldn't be higher. Are you in, kid? The Songs: Smoke and Mirrors: An update of a field holler about the problems, Acapella vocals replete with symphony of shovels, hammers and crowbars. I like tools. Recorded and mixed by Shins engineer Sean Flora Refuge in the Blues: A broken relationship to the soundtrack of old scratchy Chess sides. Lead guitar solos by the fiery and indominatable Jim Mesi. Walkin' into Wheeler: Love and happiness to a jumpin' New Orleans 2-beat parade shuffle. Portland-born slide guitarist Gaddis Cavenah shows his quality! Hunker Down: A moody rumination on the 2004 presidential election, but whose words also echo the desolation after hurricane Katrina one year later. The rain never stops. More atmospherics by Sean Flora. Great slide work by guitarist Gaddis Cavenah. Barcode: Second-line funk and horns propel a bouncy little tune about the 'mark of the beast.' The legendary Fats Domino's tenor saxophone player Reggie Houston turns in a couple of gutsy solos. Wind Turns Blue: A bluesy ballad with piano by engineer Ron Rogers sounding like Floyd Cramer strained through a Professor Longhair blender. Ron's next door neighbor Claes Amroth plays harp. The theme is tried and true blues. Sometimes a guy can't do nothin' right. Lost Your Place: A steamy Slim Harpo-like swamper about love lost and found again. Sometimes living in a small town has it's advantages. More funky harp by Claes (pronounced Klaus) Nowhere to Go: A late night jazz-tinged blues about those years when everything seems to go wrong. In this case, 2001 sucked. Ditto 2002. Smoky, Hammond B-3 arrangement by Ben Partain. Reggie Houston lights it up again on tenor. Two Paychecks From the Street: A heartfelt minor blues about the slow collapse of the American Dream as told by the people who lived it, while I was doing a crappy little collections job for a mega-bank. Gaddis on slide and Ben Partain on B-3 burn it to the ground. Last Time I Saw Phil: A gospel-flavored farewell to a much-loved bassist, friend and fellow traveler, Phil Haxton. I wrote this the night before his memorial service. Recorded live in Gaddis' basement, the first song Hifi Mojo ever recorded. Ben plays the B-3 and kicks bass, while Gaddis plays some sweet slide. Smokin': A big, wide, uptown shuffle about...well, adult themes. Horns by Peter Moss and Steve Cameron.- Shop: odax

New Vice
A New Vice takes five different interpretations of the same influences, shovels them into a blender and comes out with something somewhat recognizable in color yet truly unique in taste. They each instinctively draw from the musical influence and energy of notable performers such as Foo Fighters, AFI, 30 Seconds to Mars, Muse and many others. The music is not written to fit into any genre, jump on any bandwagon or ride any coat tails. These songs could have been written 10 years ago or ten years from now. The bands self-titled debut record has a slated street date of April 20th 2010. Produced and managed by Ron Welty (The Offspring), this Orange County five-piece draws crowds at famed L.A. venues, including The Viper Room, Knitting Factory, and the Sunset Strip's very own House of Blues. The album is full of melodic, edgy, diverse and dynamic tunes and their live show is indescribable. You just have to experience it. A New Vice - the new habit you won't want to quit.- Shop: odax

Groundwork
This album has undergone a lot of growth since it's conception last fall and I have found that at a certain point I had to surrender and let the songs tell me what they wanted vs. Pushing the known formula or ideal version. I have been blessed to be working with amazingly talented musicians and recording engineer who I think have all been angels in disguise! (except for that one guy...,p jk ) We have literally had an acoustic violin explode, an amp short circuit and smoke, and one song that had to be completely taken apart and redone from scratch about 3 times -lobotomy style. But we have also had charmed sessions where the songs fell into place perfectly on the first take much to all our amazement. In the midst of all this I realized that I kept hearing myself say "I'm just laying down the groundwork with this album" as I explained what I'm doing and where I'm at musically. This is like setting the stage for the music to come. The next album is already beating at my ribcage wanting out and telling me all it wants to do and say. I can barely keep up with the internal momentum and visioning. And side by side with this, all my spare time is spent up to my elbows in dirt -with hoes,shovels,and weed-whackers.We've been breaking ground and preparing the soil on an organic sustainable farm which is the other work I love-taking command of my future and the future of the planet literally by the roots.Because I care what kind of place I leave to my baby girl and her babies...my motto lately has been SLOW DOWN! Step back...re-evaluate what we really need,what will really last,vs.what we've just been lulled into accepting. Pretty massive when you stop to think about it. That's why I'm going back to the roots.Because from there it all becomes so clear. So instead of keeping the original title "Hook,Line,Sinker" which was conceptualized around water and fishing for my Destiny,I am changing the name to "Ground Work" because that is essentially what it is,and that's what I'm doing- cultivating my future from the ground on up-in every way. The harvest season is upon us and it seems my EP will prove to be yet another delicious fruit of my hard labor. LOVE! Gina Mari.- Shop: odax
