blog 2016/1/12 - find the groove and try not to atrophy
Oh how we like to delude and distract: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20160112.zip
Adam Cleaver - The Salt Mine: Sometimes you have no idea how youi stumble on stuff and you're just like welp here's something that's randomly lovely.
Bomba Estereo - Soy Yo: awwwwfuck yeah bassss
Chance The Rapper - Israel ft Noname Gypsy: Totes chill and I love how Noname slides all in there so smooth.
Deafheaven - Brought to the Water
Deafheaven - Gifts for the Earth: Missed in 2015, seems the kids these days like their banshee metal. Pretty amazing. New Bermuda is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Eskimeaux - Broken Necks
Eskimeaux - The Thunder Answered Back: Another overlooked winner: O.K. is full of so much charm and fun, with the brooding innocence of an Eric's Trip album and the confidence of Tune-Yards. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Jason Isbell - 24 Frames
Jason Isbell - How to Forget
Jason Isbell - If It Takes a Lifetime: I wasn't quite as in to this album as the stark solemn beauties of his prior album, but Something More Than Free has a few great tracks that are indispensable.
Merry Ellen Kirk - Ever After: It's that big final scene, she grasps for the curtains and stares up at the stars, filling herself with the silence of the universe. There must be some way out of this life. And that's when she notices a flicker.
Miguel - Leaves
Miguel - Waves: Wildheart is a big pile of incredibly sexy soul. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Get on this pile.
Natasha Alexander - Black Bodies: Well this is all sorts of devastating.
Rae Spoon - I Know I'm Not The Only One (Sam Smith cover): oh swoon
Thundercat - Them Changes: This is worlds of awesome. The break, the funk, the piano, the horns, my gawd.
Tobias Jesso Jr. - Can't Stop Thinking About You
Tobias Jesso Jr. - Leaving LA: Oh and here's another one I slept on, and perhaps the most shameful of the lot. Goon is like if Ween at their most saccarine jammed with Beck at his most earthen folk. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
