It is an overt reminder that jazz comes in many forms…and usually includes a fabulous instrumental solo. Sdban Records | buy Lefto Presents Jazz Cats Volume 2 Dishwasher_ … Continue reading [Various Artists] – Lefto presents Jazz Cats Volume 2
Best Albums of 2021, 11-20 (part 2)
Alice Phoebe Lou – Glow The first of two records released by Alice Phoebe Lou in 2021, Glow is filled with yearning. The South African artist discusses matters of the heart among cool, sparse soft rock. Vocals on the title track have a sassy lilt that embraces the guitar progression, all of which amounts to Lou’s brand of psych rock. There is much beauty in simplicity, … Continue reading Best Albums of 2021, 11-20 (part 2)
Naughty Beach Vibes Are All Over “Eternity” by Adeline Featuring Joshua J
Originally appeared on Grimy Goods. If you thought Adeline’s 2020 was huge, well, have you checked in with her at all this year? Grimy Goods has covered her recent singles, which have all painted the French-Caribbean singer/bassist/producer in the most brilliant light. Her new track is worthy of a beach excursion that never ends; one could argue the music video portrays just that. Watch the video for “Eternity” featuring Joshua … Continue reading Naughty Beach Vibes Are All Over “Eternity” by Adeline Featuring Joshua J

Mr. Scruff – “Nice Up the Function”
Ninja Tune recently uploaded Mr. Scruff’s back-catalogue, including the not-so-coincidentally named mixtape, Ninja Tuna. When I heard “Nice Up the Function” for the first time in a handful of years (at least!), it brought back some funky memories, all lacking context. Mr. Scruff’s DJ-Kicks compilation came out just a few weeks ago; give that a listen on Bandcamp. Source: Bandcamp Continue reading Mr. Scruff – “Nice Up the Function”
