Kyle is one of my best friends. I don’t see him as much anymore as I’d like as we have some miles between us, but that’s part of growing up and being British. Kay Kay is doing absolutely amazing things, their new album is going to just blow people away, and I can’t wait for [...]

Annie Clark’s new album really blows me away - there is so much emotion and so much heart. Its very simply beautiful. The compositions are complex and experimental and lush and gorgeous.
“All My Stars Aligned” is my current favorite after an initial listen through (which admittedly hasn’t been thorough at this point). [...]
I know I just said I need to focus down, but I also need to share this with you. Palms Out Sounds is a killer music blog and they do this thing called “Sample Wednesday” where they go through some great artists and find the songs they originally sampled from. They just did one on [...]

I wasn’t really into the earlier demos that we’re floating around, but the newer jams are just super soulful and atmospheric and psychedelic and wonderful. The beats are killer and I love those horns. I don’t have anything you can’t get [...]
I saw the Karate Kid last night in a park and it reminded me of that scene in Crossroads that is essentially a “crane kick” w/ guitars…
This was recommended to me by my boy Dave. A perfect way to start a sleepy and wonderful morning:
I heard Cornelius for the first time about 5 days ago. It was one of those moments that you realize at the time is life-altering, although you don’t quite know how. Like when I heard “Lady Madonna” for the first time. Or when I bought Pet Sounds.
On a whim recommendation I checked out Cornelius’ stuff, [...]
