Sleep Station on MYSPACE

Gavin Werner and Bassey Etim are "The Urban Correspondent" Thier Sleep Station ep consists of remixes and original music inspired by Sleep Station's album "Hang in there Charlie"

Thanks to Taylor for the web site, Jason for the opportunity, Dave for the love and support, and all of you for supporting whats true.

----

A seamless blend of previously opposing genres, The Sleep Station ep endlessly summons a recurring thought, This music is a match made in the heavens. The Urban Correspondent fearlessly blends the ambitious storytelling of Oakland, New Jersey's indie flagship with the spirit of disciplined and poetic midwest hip-hop.

Gavin Werner's flawless production adds a layer of eloquence to Bassey Etim's (Da Boss) unique penchant for storytelling. The Sleep Station reaches for the stars, and takes the listener along on a angst-filled, yet somehow comforting journey into outer space.
