  • Bio

    You stand before a force cataclysmic, devastating, and resistant to all modes of being and reflection, challenging the very sovereignty of the Self…yet it is beautiful and inspiring, leaving only the imagination and the infinite possibility of alterity. It is the music of Exotic Animal Petting Zoo... Exotic Animal Petting Zoo: Music of Alterity.. That rock died yesterday, since '69 or'77, '80, or '94 – and rock should still wander toward the meaning of its death, recollecting the pieces, giving "birth" to the tepid hybrid genres of the late 20th/early 21st century, playing with exhausted remnants – or that it has always lived knowing itself to be dying; that rock died one day, within history, or that it fed on its own agony, on the violent way, with pure, raw energy, it defied the carefully constructed illusions of permanence, freeing otherness from oppressive social taboos, which is its past, its concern, its death and source; that beyond the death, the dying nature, of rock, perhaps because of it, this music still has a future, entirely still to come – all of these are unanswerable questions. Unanswerable for a bloated genre, dragging itself forward, dressed in enumerable hyper-real fashions, inept to enact social change through threatening originality, rebellion, and angst that rejected imposed moral codes, creeds, and commandments. However, it is by these questions, static at the heart of this desert, the curse of these sands, the ever-widening wasteland, that the music of Exotic Animal Petting Zoo can make us tremble. Philosophy debated the end of art and the end of history, and now Exotic Animal Petting Zoo debates, and then enacts the end of rock, the end of a genre, modernity's genre, expressed by a few guitars, vocals, drums, bass, etc. It is not the end as in the end of god, but a curve, a disappearance of foundations, stability, and form, an unknown birth. Before this curve of vertigo, all vision lies mundane, creatively barren, from a generation of artists paralyzed by the anxiety of influence, the experience of the Uncanny, leaving rock to become a real that is retouched and refurbished, a "hallucinatory resemblance" of itself. Within rock, there is an ideal corresponding to its every aspect, more real than real, boundaries of hyper-reality erased – music erased by stereophonic perfection. Is there any alternative to the paralysis of generic perfection and infinite repetition? Perhaps.

    Dear music supervisor,
    My name is dB Heard CEO of Not Only Street Records!

    Not Only Street Records distinguishes itself from other independent record companies through its marketing and promotional plan, Intense, calculated and relentless promotional campaigns

    NOSR represents a complete roster of independent recording artist through the entire world.

    New Release:
    I Know Now & Drop Hit,s and Evrybodies Darling
    on
    Not Only Street Records

    The native-born Jamaican Marvin Anthony Burnett aka Sledgy was born in St. James at September, 27th in 1973.
    At the age of sixteen he came with his brother to Germany to stay with his mother and live a better life. Shortly afterwards young Anthony got down with rapping.
    To do music brings a lot of joy to him. Music is a great pleasure for Sledgy; he feels committed to make music.

    It helped him through his hard time after his entry into Germany which was totally foreign to him at that time.
    After he had rapped a long time for himself to take his mind off his worries, Burnett signed a contract with the label Power Jam Records.
    With conclusion of the treaty his music career begins.

    Under the name of Marvin Burnett he performs onstage (YOU) two times and at Funworld, Bodensee. Furthermore his music appeared on Radio K?ln and Radio 7.
    For two years he has been under contract to Power Jam Records which is known as GUMAK Media e.K. today.

    The Jamaican Burnett is also charitable. He gave many benefit performances, among others at K?lner Zoo, in a retirement home and not least at town hall in Cologne- Kalk.
     

    If you would like more submissions from NOSR please state so in a conformation email and we would be happy to continue send you additional music.

    Thanking in in advance
