Chin Injeti’s describes his newest video, “Collision” as  “a little bit of my past, present & future. For me it is a track that takes me back to a time in Montreal/Toronto when Trans X was smashing up the speakers, a moment in time that helps tie together the story of The Reverb”.

Through the magic of DJ Khalil & Jen Oleksiuk, the video director behind “Collision“, they bring out the feel of the song with angles and choreography that collide into one another.

Eminem on the Grammy Award winning album “Recovery” with the track “Survival” from the album featured on Call of Duty: Ghosts. Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae on his Grammy winning album Gravity. Multi-million seller P!nk (The Truth About Love) and California soul singer Aloe Blacc, whose new song ‘I’m the Man’ was used for several Beats headphone and music commercials during the 2013 Super Bowl.

While you wait for the remixes and album, check out the official lyric video for “Black Skeletons”.

Toronto’s Papermaps are releasing their new single “I’ve Closed a Door”(Detour Mix) this week from their album “Darker Lights”. Critics have made comparisons to acts as varied as Sloan, Television, and the Posies.

Dean Marino the band’s creative force (vocalist, guitarist, songwriter) has pushed his effected guitar to the fore on this track and focused on dynamics and sonic texture with some backwards tape loops thrown in! The song has been re-edited and remixed from the original album version. It was recorded at the band’s Toronto studio Echo Valley, with Marino producing and engineering the sessions.

You can purchase the single on iTunes.

Royally Sparked Volume II is a celebration of all the things that make new music in Canada sound great. Wonderful songwriting, great production and undeniable artistry. This 14 song compilation features ten artists from across the nation and is a refreshing glimpse at the depth of talent currently being cultivated in this country.

All tracks for this collection were handpicked by Sparks Music’s young A&R Director, Diana Medeiros, who listened and researched Canadian recording artists that were garnering attention both at college radio, CBC radio 3 and through various other alternative music outlets. “We had certain goals and criteria in mind and I literally spent months reaching out to artists throughout Canada. The result of which, I’d like to believe, is an entertaining album that takes the listener on a musical, hook laden ride, complete with new surprises and delights at every turn.”
