Where were you when Tetsuo and Youth leaked? I was trawling through the KTT forums, waiting to freak out alongside everyone else once it finally dropped. Then it dropped, and I've had it on repeat since. Lupe Fiasco said that Mural was the track that everything in his career had led to. HE WAS RIGHT.This shit pops off, 8 minutes of complete poetry. Not a single word wasted. No need for a chorus. Lu is turning annotating his raps into a full-time job.. Just...damn. Absolute fire. The rest of the year is going to have trouble topping this album, hiphop wise. Get on it Kanye. If you wanted to only hear one song recommendation from me, let it be this track: Dudikoff, ninja mission into the Congo Polarize envy of the older guys Black obi, shinobi hittin' Kenno in the face with all my throwin' knives Sub-zero guiding, hiding, riding in the pack as well Sound village, Leaf village, wolf spirit, magic spells Dodging rain and catching hail Faces need samurais to catch the L YEAH. Or, you know. I Got White Friends. I wouldn't mind if that was the one song you took from me, taste-wise. Also been listening to Starcadian, which is a lot like pre-Random Access Memories Daft Punk.Who’s the Boss? If isn't Alyssa Milano
I can't wait to listen to this...hopefully tonight. For now, had enough time to read this interview with your link led to me. So that was nice.
This one's also to advertise a friend's project:
I've been recording more music than I ever have in my entire life. I can't wait to share the finished project with all of you. I've been listening to a lot of music but really, I've been focused a lot on my own work. I listened to some Sly and the Family Stone last night. We had friends over for Taco Night. Taco Night begs for Sly..
I have been listening to an excessive amount of Angel Olsen recently. It's the start of a new year so it's time to find the greatest things to come out of 2014, and the best album (objectively) of last year is Angel Olsen's Burn Your Fire for No Witness. Here's a live version of my favourite song off of the album: Upon reading Meredith Graves' write-up of Cloud Castle Lake's Dandelion I fell madly in love. Here's "Sync" from their EP, which I've been listening to incessantly the last few days: *Some other favourite albums of 2014 include Perfect Pussy's Say Yes to Love, St. Vincent's St. Vincent, Alt-J's This Is All Yours, Kithkin's Rituals, Trances & Ecstasies for Humans in Face of The Collapse, People Get Ready's Physiques, and others.
St. Paul and the Broken Bones - Call Me The Night they Drove Old Dixie Down - The Band (Live Last Waltz version) thenewgreen - I'd love to hear your opinion on the first song. I think you'd like it a lot.
Thank you for the shout-out. Regarding the first track, he was just a few kicks and a purple jump suit away from being this guy: Which is a very enviable place to be. I dug the energy, thanks.
