What’s Next – Latasha Alcindor

21 November 2017

Latasha Alcindor has a lot to say, and there’s so much style in the way she says it.

“What’s next” is an amazing sonic journey from her past and background as a black girl from the hood, to the future she is creating, the tomorrow she wants to see…

Old Fitzroy – Dan Sultan

21 November 2017

I was introduced to Dan Sultan a few years back and been hooked ever since.There’s something really special about Australian music that paints a picture that’s not always pretty, with raw honesty that cuts to the bone.

In The Waiting Line – Zero 7

21 November 2017

This song has been popping up now and again for me, I decided to pick In the Waiting line this week as it speaks to my current state the most.

Pain – The War On Drugs

21 November 2017

In today’s music industry, it’s hard to find a new band who consistently puts out good music, or has an album where each song leaves you wanting more. The more you listen the more you can’t get enough and your left with this longing that music seems to has lost. The War on Drugs is this type of band.

Everyday – Carly Comando

17 November 2017

The first time I heard this track, I got completely into it. It’s powerful, it’s uplifting, it’s overwhelming. And it was associated to a stunning video that became viral in no time. A guy, Noah Kalina, took a picture of himself once a day for almost 6 years, and then put everything in a rapid sequence. Can you imagine it? Almost 3.000 pictures that in less then 6 minutes flow in front of your eyes.. and this music running as sountrack.

Slightest Right – Makaya McCraven

16 November 2017

I absolutely love drum-focused instrumental music, improvisation, and seeing a drummer as a bandleader. This week’s track, “Slightest Right,” is from Chicago drummer Makaya McCraven, and it checks off all three of those boxes. …

Niye Belə Uzundur Bu Yollar – No Land

15 November 2017

“No Land’in sesleri yaşam gibi akıcıdır. katılıktan uzak; su gibi akışkandır. çalgılar saygıyla donanmıştır, yerli yerinde kullanılmış, kimse kimseyi bastırmamış, ezmemiş, ötekileştirmemiştir. belki de bu yersiz yurtsuzluğa No Landçe bir yanıttır.”

Where’s the Deluxe Version? – Cliff Martinez

14 November 2017

I know I normally advocate for sticking with one track and putting it on repeat – but where there’s a little more leeway is when you start to play with movie soundtracks.  We already have quite a few soundtracks on this list but I surprised myself that I hadn’t yet put up something from the brilliant Cliff Martinez.

14 November 2017

Multi Award winning Tanzania artist Naseeb Abdul Juma known also known as Diamond Platnumz is considered one of the most influential , loved and decorated Tanzanian artist at the moment.

Cold Hearted – Shown 1k

14 November 2017

About 6 to 7 years ago one of the A&R’s I worked with approached me about working with a artist. At the time I still lived In Florida, and this artist was from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. I wasn’t sure how that was going to work but this person assured me once I heard this guy I would definitely want to work with him. 

En La Ciudad De La Furia – Soda Stereo

14 November 2017

We can go to unknown territory for a moment and travel in time and space to Argentina in the 1980s, looking back to one of the most influential rock bands in Latin America, Soda Stereo.

Every nineties latino kid grew up listening to Gustavo Cerati’s voice and getting enchanted by this song and many others. This is a typical one that captured very uniquely the feeling of the evening, watching the sun go down and the city lights slowly start to turn on.
