Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (1998)
Perhaps best likened to a marching band on an acid trip, Neutral Milk Hotel's second album is another quixotic sonic parade; lo-fi yet lush, impenetrable yet wholly accessible, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is either the work of a genius or an utter crackpot, with the truth probably falling somewhere in between.
No lie, this is one of the best rock albums ever released. If you think you can't find the right rock album for you because everyone seems to scream and it has very loud guitars, this is the album for you. Very calm with amazing vocals (and I mean amazing), and tons of classic tracks. DON'T SLEEP!

Dave Matthews Band - Under the Table and Dreaming
I'm sure everyone is familiar with Dave Matthews Band though you may have never listened to any of their albums. This is their debut album from 1994 and it's got some of their greatest hits. I have been a fan of DMB way before rap, way before most if not all of the music I listen to today. I've seen them a good 4 times live in concert and they put on a good one. Anyway, this is a great starting point for y'all even though every one of their albums is excellent in it's own way. Enjoy!
- "The Best of What's Around" – 4:17
- "What Would You Say" – 3:43
- "Satellite" – 4:52
- "Rhyme & Reason" – 5:16

Dert - CMYK EP (2009)
A short, but in-depth ep based on the four colors that make up the traditional printing process; cyan, magenta, yellow and black. Each track is a synaesthetic response translating the emotions each color evokes. CMYK marks Dert's first project composing every track without the use of found samples or loops and delving deep into synth-based production. Every track features a "hook" or "refrain" buried low in the mix surrounded by a "wall of sound" created by layering keyboard parts and employing various methods of distortion. CMYK takes inspiration from the shoegaze genre of rock and artists such as My Bloody Valentine as well as the vocal stylings of J-Dilla on his track "Nothing Like This."
1. Cyan (4:24)
2. Magenta (3:55)
3. Yellow (4:50)
4. Black featuring Surreal (3:18)
5. Paper Jam (Bonus Track) (5:14)

Hip Hop 2090 (2009)
In the year 2009, I'm bringing you some classic raps from the 90s, updated with my own original production. I'm Eli29, and this is Hip Hop 2090.
For the most part, these remixes are dramtically different than their original couterparts. A lot of the beats are very bass heavy (great for bumping in your ride) and high energy, while others are very chilled out tracks. I made sure to put an emphasis on the featured rappers' flows, deliveries, and lyrics. I'm using this album as my own production demo, while paying tribute to Hip Hop from 1990-1999, which is, in my humble opinion, the best decade for the genre that we all love so much. Chances are I'm not going to be able to work with some of my favourite rappers, so this is as close as I'm going to get.
1. Wu-Tang Clan - Da Mystery of Chessboxin' remix
2. Ghostface Killah - Mighty Healthy remix
3. Outkast & Slick Rick - Da Art of Storytellin' remix
4. Mobb Deep - Quiet Storm remix
5. Heavy D, 2Pac, Grand Puba & Biggie Smalls - Let's Get It On remix
6. Eli29 - It's A Small World
7. Nas - One Love remix
8. Method Man & Redman - Tear It Off remix

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Cosmo's Factory (1970)
Creedence is in my opinion the greatest American rock band ever, or atleast my favorite. There is no other voice in the industry comparable to John Fogerty. This is probably their best album in the sense that it has the most reckognizable hits. Of course every album they put out had a hit or two on it, they've got like an album's worth full of hits I bet you've all heard. They're just fucking amazing though, I can't see how anybody doesn't like Creedence. Favorite song is probably either "Up Around the Bend" or their 11 minute cover of Marvin Gaye's "I Heard It Through the Grapevine". This is a must download for everyone, enjoy!
- "Ramble Tamble" – 7:10
- "Before You Accuse Me" (Bo Diddley) – 3:27
- "Travelin' Band" – 2:07
- "Ooby Dooby" (Wade Moore, Dick Penner) – 2:07
- "Lookin' Out My Back Door" – 2:35
- "Run Through the Jungle" – 3:10
- "Up Around the Bend" – 2:42
- "My Baby Left Me" (Arthur Crudup) – 2:19
- "Who'll Stop the Rain" – 2:29

- "Long as I Can See the Light" – 3:33

Young M.C. - Stone Cold Rhymin' (1989)
I was honestly surprised at how bangin this album is. It's 1989 hip-hop so some tracks do sound a bit dated. "Bust a Move" is still the classic that we all know and love and it hasn't aged a bit. "Know How" is actually my favorite song on the album, sampling the Shaft theme song and Young MC tears that shit up. He's got an excellent style and flow, really quick paced delivery and he rolls his Rs in verses real smooth lol. Definitely an underrated rapper who's probably still only known for "Bust a Move". Worth at least a few listens and "Bust a Move" and "Know How" should be in everybody's collection.
- "I Come Off"
- "Principal's Office"
- "Bust a Move"
- "Non Stop"
- "Fastest Rhyme" (M. Young)
- "My Name Is Young" (M. Young/M. Dike)
- "Know How" (M. Young/J. King/M. Simpson)
- "Roll With The Punches"
- "I Let 'Em Know"
- "Pick Up The Pace" (M. Young/M. Dike)
- "Got More Rhymes" (M. Young/M. Dike/J. King/M. Ross)
- "Stone Cold Buggin'" (M. Young/M. Dike)
