Whilk & Misky- Burn With Me

Whilky & Misky are an jazztronic neo soul duo consisting of Nima on synthesizer and Charlie's vocals. In addition to their extremely clever group name, their music isn't half bad either. The recently released track 'Burn with Me' is edgy and laid back with a textured and developed rhythm. The track was released as a follow up to their successful debut EP. A new full album is on its way with estimated release Summer 2015.

Ruth Brown- I Don't Know

Ruth Brown better known during the 50's as "Miss Rhythm" was an acoustic blues/soul singer during the golden years of jazz. Her music is a delicate blend of R&B, pop and jazz. Although during the 60's and 70's she fell out of the music scene and the public eye to take care of her children she experienced a an enormous revival in the early 80s. The sound of Ruth's voice with the gentle melodic tune is tender and mysterious.

Happy National Concert Day :)

A concert to remember for a lifetime.
Galactic Lundi Gras @ Tipitinas (2011)

"The less I think about it the happier I am

I don’t really care if I fit into anything

or if there is anything to fit into.

It’s just I like music ya know?

That’s the thing, 

It's very uncomplicated"

Heaven Adores You

Could not be more excited to see a special screening of "Heaven Adores You" this evening. Not only is Elliott Smith my favorite solo artist of all time , I believe he was one of the most complex humans to have ever graced this earth. His story is tragic, but I'm hoping this documentary can shed some light on his dark and painful struggles.

Elliott Smith died on October 21, 2003 by two direct stab wounds to his own heart.

Good Morning, Good Music

Jordan Bratto & Chance the Rapper - Prisoner

I'm not typically a fan of most popular music, but I can definitely get down with some of it. Always like to give it a listen and see if anything jumps out at me. In the world of pop music this week, the track "Prisoner" by Jordan Bratton and Chance the Rapper is doing it for me. It's cute, nothing extraordinary but definitely charming and shareable. The melody is pleasant with a bit of a modern soul pop vibe.

Blue Hawaii - Get Happy

Blue Hawaii is an electronic music duo based out of Montreal. Their sound consists of dense female harmonies of singer Ra and the melodic textured synthesizer done by Agor. After their latest album release in 2013, Ra moved on to join the group BRAIDS.

Although, Blue Hawaii is no longer recording together full time, last year they two got back together to release the track "Get Happy". The track is mid-tempo, light and enchanted sounding. The lyrics speak to a very highly debated psychological phenomenon of the large volume of people being put on antidepressants in the US.  I like how it conceptualizes an unfeeling medicated zombie through the nature of the sound.

Sounds similar to: Braids, Lapsley, Made in Heights
