ABout the artist: Sontiago releases “Muscle Car” the maxi-single after receiving national recognition and charting #6 on the CMJ hip hop charts in 2007 with her sophomore album, “Steel Yourself.” Being a lover of rap since the early nineties and going to see Boogie Down Productions and Public Enemy as a teenager, she coveted the honor of being named one of URB’s Next 100 artists. When she’s not recording and playing shows, Sontiago busies herself around Portland, Maine as a youth worker, Grants and Communications Manager at the Maine Women’s Fund and wife to fellow artist, jdwalker.
About the director: David Meiklejohn is a writer, filmmaker, and video installation artist who made his feature-length directorial debut in 2011 with My Heart is an Idiot, a comedic documentary about love and FOUND Magazine creator Davy Rothbart. His wrote and directed a short spy film titled “Forgiveness,” and directed a suite of fifteen short films about personal mythologies with Maine immigrant and refugee students. He lives and works in Portland, Maine.
Our friends at Riot Act Media secured a video premiere with Vice Magazine for Sontiago’s new single “Muscle Car”.
Here is what they said:
“We were sent the premiere of Sontiago’s new video for “Muscle Car,” but we don’t know much about her. A brief Nancy Drew around her Facebook page reveals that she lives in Portland, Maine (What’s THAT like?), she spends her free time working as a teaching artist at a local non-profit writing center, has experience as a bartender, and invented Elmer’s Glue.”

Please get to it and start your listen on and please share with your friends and lovers. Have a block party and let it fly from your ghetto-blaster and tell the people it needs to be heard so that they can move their feet! Summer is almost over and there are only so many dance moves left in all these legs of ours.
Sontiago’s newest single is now available through bandcamp for 0.99 or other digital outlets.
ENJOY!
hearts and flowers
ps – video to come…
Endemik Music is proud to present this digital maxi-single from Sontiago as our 18th release!
Sontiago is back ya’ll! She has flipped the sonic script since her last album but retains the true-to-herself style we all know and love. Album cover and press release are below.
If anyone is interested in reviewing, playing on air, etc, please get at us and we can set you up with the songs.
Portland, Maine based hip-hop artist, Sontiago drops her first release in nearly five years. Sontiago’s 2007 sophomore album earned her a number six spot on the CMJ hip-hop charts, landed her on the pages of URB’s Next 100 and was named “your Ipod’s best friend,” in Bust Magazine.
After a US/Canadian tour with her last album, Steel Yourself, Sontiago returned home and focused her creative passions on working with youth in her community. Busying herself as a teaching artist with a local non-profit writing center, Sontiago has spent a significant amount of time leading songwriting and video workshops for area high school students. The results can be seen in a series of recently completed video shorts titled, “The Whole World Waiting.”
Returning to her own music, Sontiago found some inspiration with a group of influential collaborators. Lucky Me Records producer Ango saw Sontiago perform in his hometown of Halifax in 2003 and after relocating to Montreal years later,sought out Endemik Music’s Scott Da Ros, who helped get the two artists together. Ango, who had just returned from the Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona, was armed with energy and a thundering palette of beats, while Sontiago, revitalized, was bursting with ideas.
Back in Portland, Maine, Sontiago was bar-tending at a local venue when a girl in a bluegrass band caught her eye. She was wearing a pair of sneakers that suggested she was more than a bassist in an all-girl folk ensemble. Indeed, she was. The two exchanged music the next day and Sontiago found out that Therese Workman was one half of Oh My Goodness, a brilliant duo that made songs infused with humor, future-pop, R&B, and a healthy dose of Cosby Show. From there it was on. The two pushed each other, wrote together, recorded together and cheered from the sidelines as Anticon’s Alias mixed their vocals.
Muscle Car Maxi Single is the kind of music that might cause groups of strangers to burst into spontaneous and elaborate dance numbers as it flows from the stereos of cars cruising the Saturday night strip. Sontiago is back. Life is good. It’s time to have a bit of fun. Without sacrificing her ability to make a point, Sontiago steers Muscle Car with a carefree abandon that is both infectious and exhilarating. On the b-side, Okay Okay’s anthemic beat and fierce determination is the perfect counterpoint to the title track – the moment when everyone suddenly realizes they’ve been caught up in unconscious choreography but shrugs off their inhibitions and keeps dancing anyway.
Sontiago’s Muscle Car is a digital maxi-single including two new songs produced by Ango, a remix by Alias and two instrumentals. Muscle Car will be released through Endemik Music and is available at http://www.endemikmusic.com and other online retailers August 14, 2012.
INSTRUMENTS have dropped a new single today and after listening to it for the first time I am now putting my socks back on. This song rules and the recording is beautiful. Great work guys and look forward to the next single!
J. LaPointe says:
Send Resend is a sequel to Reciting Another Man’s Mantra at the Museum of Science While Down the Hall the Library Door is Surreptitiously Unlocked from 2010. It’s also the first of 5 new songs that we plan to release between now and June. That’s a super fast paced release schedule for us (we are normally fairly glacial, as you may know), but we’re hunkering down in the studio and the second song is already well underway. More to come.
