Just got word from Brooklyn-based Bastard Jazz about Potatohead People‘s new limited edition 7” containing two songs of their previously released “Kosmichemusik” EP. The vinyl will be out on Valentine’s Day especially for all you heart-breakers and broken hearted. The Canadian duo, consisting of Nick Wisdom & AstroLogical, are now giving away “Back To My Shit” featuring Frank Nitt as a free download so act accordingly!
Jairus Mozee aka Jmo from Long Beach California came to my attention when I saw Brandon Coleman talk about him. Soon I came to the discovery he has played guitar for Prince, Lil Wayne, Faith Evans and Cee Lo. He also wrote songs with Jill Scott, Anthony Hamilton and Kendrick Lamar. For his own song “Experience” he asked the help of Ricky Harris aka DJ Eazy D*ck from W-Balls. Enjoy some of that free downloadable West Coast Funk!
Bilal‘s new album will be out in just a few weeks, so his drummer/producer Steve Mckie decided to stream this nice unreleased joint with Robert Glasper on keys and Adam Blackstone on bass on his Soundcloud. Make sure you catch “A Love Surreal” on Feb 26.
Back in 2010 Benny Tones released his album, “Chrysalis”, wich came out via BBE Records. Might have been a while since we last heard from Benny, but that’s mostly because he’s been busy touring the globe with Electric Wire Hustle. On his travels he did however meet many musicians and producers. This resulted in “Chrysalis – The Remixes”, a collection of 30 remixes from producers such as fLako, B.Bravo, Christoph El Truento, AD Bourke, Dizz1, Tayreeb, Sola Rosa and Comfort Fit.
So here’s an almost unimaginable post from me. What…a new Prince song? And wasn’t I that guy that never had any musical interest in the artist formerly known as whatsoever? Correct! However I did come across an almost eerie website where you get shushed by this woman with three eyes. It’s Prince’s new merchant site and allows you to purchase 4 songs. Something sexy as “Breakfast Can Wait” should be bumpin’ through your speakers. Regardless if you’re a fan of Prince or not. (Spotted at PinBoard)
Sirr Om’Mas Keith, best known from the age of Sa-Ra, released his “City Pulse” solo album…FOR FREE. Of course with Thundercat on bass and Erykah Badu on vocals, there is nothing to complain about. Might not be my favorite work from Om’Mas, but I am really feenin’ “All 4 You” featuring miss Badu and Shafiq Husayn!
We’ve been keepin’ an ear out for Rotterdam-based producer Moods for a while now. Rumor has it he might be working on a Seravince remix, but I will neither deny nor will I confirm this vicious rumor (wink). On the latest Birdview Crew compilation series, “February.EP”, we hear some nice beats from Portformat, Maximoe and Moods.
Oh dear, wasn’t expecting something as sexy as this from Russian producer Lapti. Pure “Private Private” spice to fill that need for porno type of music right here!
It is said that the Germans and the Dutch don’t get along very well. In the case of long time music friend, Front2blaq, this is very untrue. In fact we have love for a lot of German cats (don’t get me wrong here). Anyhow, Marcus kicks off our Guest Mix series with the loneliest number known to man. He pleasantly surprised us with a very personal selection that I in fact am very fond of. Oh and a special shout out to Duktus for providing the nice artwork! Snatch up a free download if you like.
