it is my observation that music just sounds better with 
a little bit of dust on it.

album review

I rarely get to write a lot of things on my blog,
so I believe I deserve some space to 
rave about a certain album I love.


Erykah badu- New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh


Erykah Badu definitely knows how to construct an album.
It has been three months since I've purchased this album and I sttill can't get enough.
At times, it is so free-flowing and improvisional, I could swear it's a live album.
But at some other moments, it is musically so well layered and pith perfect
that it had to come from considerable amounts of time in the studio.

Such is the brilliance of this album.
Erykah knows when to be emotionally serious enough and exactly when to just
be playful and enjoy herself. It does not take too many listens to hear that
she did not want to waste a single second of the album to serve whatever purpose she had in her mind.
An instant classic.
This kind of complete albums is the reason (along with albums such as the xx, illmatic, and
from here we go sublime, just to name a few that comes to mind)
I much prefer to get to know an artist through an entire album rather than singles.

enough said.

Thundercat- The Golden Age of Apocalypse



















link

It is going to be too difficult to post every single song from this album in order, which is the way it should be listened to.
definitely worth the purchase.

wouldn't you love to see Thundercat and Squarepusher collab at some point?

DJ Mitsu the Beats feat. José James "Promise In Love"

I've known this song for a while but only watched this MV today with a recommendation from a friend.
I don't know much about dancing, but who could not like such a well done choreography.
one of the most romantic music video I've watched in a long time.
props to Simon Taylor.

love is a mix tape



I've revised this post so many times,
trying to sell this book the best I can.
I have simple run out of words for it.

if you have any interest in the connection between
emotions and music,
think book should be a must.
