Mr. President – One Night
If the cover doesn’t intrigue the music will! Like fine wine, French producer Bruno “Patchworks” Hovart keeps getting better with time. Hovart finds his groove between 70s disco funk jazz on the whole album! Featuring an eclectic group of vocalist that flow beautifully over each track. Definitely the soundtrack of any dance floor for “One Night” but you’ll go back to this album over and over. Well done Favorite Recordings.
Kid Sublime – Straat Coach
Jacob Otten, aka Kid Sublime has a unique sound that cross genres of electronic, soul and hip hop. His production keeps evolving and his latest album Straat Coach on Inkswel’s Inner Tribe is solid. His first complete Dutch Rap album that we are aware of full of that boom bap beats we blast in the jeep. For that reason, thanks Inner Tribe for releasing on cassette along with vinyl. As a nice bonus you can also get all the instrumentals when you purchase the full album on Bandcamp.
Sault – Untitled (Rise)
I’ve been playing Sault since their first release on Eavesdrop Radio. They keep getting better and better and that is hard to say as their consistent output and quality is top notch. Untitled (Rise) is an incredible follow up to the inspirational Untitled (Black Is). (Rise) feels like medicine that the world needs right now. In a relentless 2020 Sault has managed to channel their energy into genre skipping groves. The musicianship is really strong here. Just when you think they have put their all in the album, they turn the vibrations up. RISE INDEED PEOPLE!
SCRIMSHIRE - Listeners
Albert’s Favourites
Scrimshire aka Adam Scrimshire is a passionate melodic producer. Carefully balancing the lines of jazz, soul and electronic music Adam is able to connect the dots and create new ones that actually make sense. We’ve waited patiently for Mr. Scrimshire to release another full length. All the while, he has been dropping remixes and other production credits here and there. Well the wait was worth it. This new album Listeners features collaborations with Joshua Idehen (Hugh/Benin City/Sons of Kemet), Chip Wickham, Soothsayers, James Alexander Bright, And Is Phi (Steamdown), Emma-Jean Thackray, Madison McFerrin, Ego Ella May (Tru Thoughts) and of course Georgia Anne Muldrow. A plethora of talent that is rich and lush. You won’t be disappointed! Don’t be like us and sleep on grabbing the vinyl.
