Hello ladies and gentlemen, hope you are keeping very well...... oh my, this is my first post for the year and it certainly wont be the last. So what has 2013 got in store for us eh?don't really believe in all this new years crap, according to the Indian calendar we are in 2070..??. So I have posted a new track called 'mind travels'. Will be posting more........ so keep your eyes n ears open.
I came a cross a few short films directed by a gentleman called khalil Joseph, I first discovered him through shabazz palaces, really well made pieces, the photography, use of colours, the sounds, music,its atmospheric,stunning shots, I think I will go and buy myself a good camera now. Really inspired me.
There is so much stuff that is being released these days, its just one after the other, you cant really keep up lol. So here is what I have been listening tooo, gems from past to the present day.
Taylor Mcferrin-awake to you/// what a track, it starts of with a piano and a beat boxed beat and all of a sudden it feels as though a door has opened into space, you get this lovely distant guitar flowing accompanied by other sounds. Its simple, beautifully made, its a track that I will remember for a long time. Check it O-out
Stanley cowell/// Equipoise /// This has been on repeat, its a very moving piece,very much enjoyed listening to this, love the chord changes, a truly stunning piece of music.
James Blood Ulmer //// Got that high energy vibe, love the rhythms. Some top tunes by him
Andreya Triana /// I first discovered her through the good 'ole' days of Myspace when it used to be good, BTW what the hell happened to Myspace, connected with a lot of sound people from there. Such a soulful voice, not your usual soulful, sense of humbleness,always enjoy listening to Andreya Triana.
sole fusion-bass tone ////dayaaam, this sounds so fresh.
Brasstooth-celebrate life /// Love this, the video makes me laugh so much, its happy and uplifting with some humour.
Andrés - New For U/// Banging track, when I first heard it I though dayamn this is really nice, everything is just balanced out right, the sample is just pure dopeness ,beautifully made.
Hangout kid- iris/// This guy connected with me on soundcloud, I was just listening to his tracks and came across 'iris' , its an anthem, absolutely love this, lovely melody and the piece just builds.
John Abercrombie- Timeless/// The title just says it all...what a track.
Chris Turner-///LiquidLOVE /// good vibes, summery, green grass, happy, colourful, beautiful piece of music. Much needed right now,this cold weather is annoying me.
Andre 3000 //// Flipwigintastic, been listening to this guy a lot recently, reignited my music making. Stank you very much, stank you.
Theo parrish- //// Really enjoyed watching this little interview and reading this interview on crack magazine , some bits which actually made me really think.
