At The River - Groove Armada

A classic song for this glorious weather.

If Mos Def were President

If Mos Def Were President

I would probably pack all my things and move to America.

Q-Tip - The Renaissance

Coming out next week is Q-Tip's third album The Renaissance. From what I've heard on the leaked songs this album is going be something special, appreances include J Dilla, Norah Jones, D'Angelo, Raphael Saadiq and Amanda Diva.

Getting Up

Life Is Better feat. Norah Jones

We Fight/Love feat. Raphael Saadiq

My Last 6 Albums

Kousnik - Out My Window

Debut album from Koushik Ghosh, a Dj on the Stone's Throw Label from Canada. An ambient and psych-pop album with mostly half baked songs, too subtle to categorised actually. A perfect substitution for a nap, you'll feel relaxed and a bit dazed after listening to the whole album.

Nothing's The Same

Coolin'

Bright And Shining

Of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping

Haha this album is fucking crazy. Compulsively unpredictable and messy yet brilliantly balanced.

Wicked Wisdom

For Our Elegant Castle

Plastis Wafers

The Foreign Exchange - Leave It All Behind

Following up Nicolay and Phonte's 'classic album you've never heard of' is their sophomore Leave It All Behind. Unlike their debut, Phonte sings a lot more which is surprisingly fresh. One of the chillest releases this year.

I Wanna Know

Daykepper feat. Muhsinah

Take Off The Blues feat. Darien

Uyama Hiroto - A Son Of The Sun

If you're a fan of Nujabes, you would of heard of Uyama Hiroto by now, he done a few songs in a couple of his albums. A strong debut from this overtalented Japanese and no doubt released one of the 'better albums you'll never hear about' this year.

Waltz For Life Will Born

81summer

Colour Of Jade

Bob Dylan - Tell Tale Signs, The Bootleg Series Vol.8

Considering that this compilation are full of songs that were unreleased and abandoned from earlier projects, it amazes me how timeless and classical they sound.

Mississippi - Unreleased Version 2, Time Out Of Mind 1

Dignity - Unreleased, Oh Mercy

Marchin'To The City - Unreleased, Time Out Of Mind

Nujabes - Modal Soul Classics

I doubt there will ever be a Nujabes release that I would'nt enjoy. One thing I don't get is that if this is a follow up to Modal Soul or not, none the less it's an excellent release.

Under The Hood ft. Specifics

Ai-No-Kawa ft. Sleepwalker

Folklore ft. Clammbon

Vem Para Ficar ft. Lava
