MP3 blog 2013/06/10

blog 2013/06/10 - the weird must flow and it keeps all progressing onward

Bassekou Kouyate & Ngoni ba - Mali Koori:  The playing is incredible, but it is the aesthetics of the recording methods that really make this one shine for me.  Love the production.

Bobby McFerrin & Esperanza Spalding - Swing Low:  Oh Bobby, I just can't dig your new album Spirityouall.  All hymnals, mostly tragically uninspired.  But this, oh I do love covers of Swing Low, so I had to skim this off the top.

Broken Social Scene - Deathcock:  New old stock BSS leaks out for the nostalgia tour bonanza.

Chance The Rapper - Smoke Again ft Ab-Soul:  OK, not loving all of Acid Rap, but really appreciate the flow on this one.

Deadbeat - Horns of Jericho
Deadbeat - The Elephant in the Pool
Deadbeat - Yard:  You all know I'm devastatingly harsh on electronic records.  Most albums are really mediocre as a whole, or should have been a 12" only.  Maybe a double 12".  But oh the filler.  Welcome to Eight, the latest album from Deadbeat where it truly is all fucking killer, no lazy filler.  This is one of the first electronic danceyalbums in a long while where I look forward to putting it on from start to finish.  So so so highly recommended.

Ellie Goulding - Hanging On (Illo Bootleg):  Goulding in the trap!

George Maple - OPST :  Gorgeous jazzy vocals offered up on a perfectly light platter of bass.  Amazing.

Major Lazer - Bubble Butt ft Bruno Mars, Tyga & Mystic:  You were expecting, what, Kantian discourse?

Sam Amidon - Bright Sunny South
Sam Amidon - My Old Friend
Sam Amidon - Weeping Mary:  Sam Amidon is back with a new album, Bright Sunny South, featuring his wholly unique blend of apocalyptic Appalachian folk hymns fused with start naked pop culture horror.  Easily destined for my Best Of 2013 list.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The Knife - Without You My Life Would Be Boring:  Another track from the epic Shaking The Habitual.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
