Apt. B – Evan Castle & the Southern Tier

This week’s track may not be the normal dark, doom and gloom I usually serve up – but it’s one hellova track that found it’s way under my skin…

Boom – X Ambassadors

Catchy, fun, and yet meaningful. Boom is about a breaking away from a toxic relationship. The pain and anger turns into fuel to get your feet walking out the door. I’ve written before about how difficult it is to see a relationship from the outside. His song “Gang Shit” tells the story of three Americans; a cop, a KKK clan member, and an incarcerated black man…

I BEEN BORN AGAIN- BROCKHAMPTON

BROCKHAMPTON is back, baby! After almost a solid year since we got IRIDESCENCE, the boys from San Marcos, Texas have returned with a hot new single, ”I BEEN BORN AGAIN”. Within seconds, you notice that the group has not seemed to have missed a beat…

ESP – Mort Garson

Under the moniker “Lucifer”, composer Mort Garson released the album “Black Mass” in 1971. With song titles like “Incubus”, “Philosopher’s Stone”, and “Voices of the Dead (The Medium),” he paired his virtuosic explorations of Moog synthesis with imagery of the occult, witchcraft & Satanic worship…

Hat 2 da Back – TLC

If you’re a TLC lover, you’ll definitely be feeling this song. No surprise that this creation is filled with greatness. They provided support for comfortless young women. This song in particular tells you to wear what you want as long it make you feel good…

Lfost – Calcou

‘Drifting, floating, falling, but never moving… Time ripples around me but I can’t reach it, and I’m held here in a stasis that lasts an eternity and spans an entire universe…

Grape Choice – tajima hal

Noire ambient, classy suits, funny cigarettes, a jazz ambiance cocktail bar, do you smell it? oh yes, crime needs to be resolved, probably a spy or an undercover cop is on the chase right now, I know it is a weird comparison but…

Summer Nights – Noah Rosen (ft. Alex Jones, Joe Newton, Tommy & Danny Ferdon)

A creation of lively instrumental abundance. The act of speaking through sound without the boundaries or barriers confined within the walls of words. A universal feeling induced only by pure instrumentation to awaken the sounds of the soul…

No Strings Attached – Larger Than 90

This track is very funk rock soul with a standard 4 piece band. It talks about how one can avoid heartbreak by having no strings attached to the other person. A very raw sound, bluesy solos and strong high pitched vocals…

Dream To Keep Us Going – Easy Wanderlings

This track is by a band I recently found out about, it has a very folksy, blues-tinged pop rock feel to it. The song speaks about being hopeful and the fact that we should never stop dreaming. The song starts with a genre and suddenly shifts to another which sounds cool and innovative…

Some – Steve Lacy

“Some” starts with the light but steady drums the backbone and support for the whole song. Just as you start to get comfortable Steve slides in with the confidence and swagger reminiscent of many RnB greats. Lacy shines in a streaming world where his often less than perfect mixes have a bedroom pop quality to them…

Alright – Jordan Rakei

There are few voices that can cut to the soul as effortlessly as Jordan Rakei’s. A veteran talent from New Zealand, I chose this song as it is evident within seconds you’re in for a treat. Even those aren’t drawn in by the groovy jazz driven soul instrumentation will be by his soothing voice…
