Dark Transport is a 10-track song cycle written in Gozo (a small island off Malta) at a time of great emotional change. The record is soaked in the sounds of the Mediterranean, with its heady mix of crossing cultures between mainland Europe and North Africa. Lyrically influenced by the concept haiku, without adhering to its strict rules, the words sketch ambiguous instructions and images that sit within music, acknowledging textures over strict tempos.
'DARK TRANSPORT' is coming off the back of the last album 'The Room is Empty', an album which, in 2007, spent 9 weeks in the US CMJ music chart and was licensed to MTV's news and documentaries dept, as well as to numerous shows on the same station and Oxygen.

I Dont Know What Im Doing
performed by Brad Sucks, fl. 2003 (Brad Sucks, 2003), 41 mins
A Magnatune best-seller, I Don't Know What I'm Doing by Brad Sucks may be one of the most ironically titled albums of all time, because this deeply hooky, wry indie rock by Brad Turcotte shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that he both knows what he's doing and definitely doesn't suck.

A Magnatune best-seller, I Don't Know What I'm Doing by Brad Sucks may be one of the most ironically titled albums of all time, because this deeply hooky, wry indie rock by Brad Turcotte shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that he both knows what he's doing and definitely doesn't suck. Themes of clinical depression, cultural dysphoria, and relationships gone horribly wrong become darkly funny and catchy in his hands. "Making Me Nervous," and "Look And Feel Years Yonger" are lo-fi gems, while "Fixing My Brain," "I Think I Started A Trend" and "Work Out Fine" are wistfully brilliant slower numbers; they have a dazed worldliness that works perfectly with Turcotte's languid voice. "Bad Attraction" and "Dirtbag" demonstrate the blues fluency that give the songs a nice, gritty bottom and ramshackle grace. But neither the humor nor the relaxed pose of Turcotte's work can disguise the fact that he is wrestling with some genuinely dark stuff here; his work is smarter and more emotionally resonant than that of the vast majority of his indie rock peers?qualities that culminate in the tender existentialism of "Overreacting." Fun and stunning by turns, I Don't Know What I'm Doing is one of those albums that yields more with each listen. Highly recommended.

This is the second CD from Shawn Harris and a big musical departure from the first CD's acoustic only journey. The music ranges from catchy rock all
the way to Country, R & B, Hard Rock Ballad and classically inspired songs and covers a broad spectrum of different styles along the way. "Echoes of
Autumn" has many top notch studio musicians lending a hand and adding their unique style, including Magnatune artist Chris Juergensen and keeping things fresh while expanding the overall
sound. From the opening track of "Sweet Charity" with its catchy pop style all the way to the haunting last track; "Let's Roll" the emotional tribute to
the 9/11 fallen. The music is fresh and the talent is inspired on every track creating a full body of musical experience along the way. This ones a
keeper with a little something for everyone.
