just wanted to thank whoever mentioned bonobo's
"animal magic" a while back. finally picked that up
(thank's groovedis). this makes my top albums of the
year. it's just engrossing, it's lush, it's ...
whatever. from some of the indian influences to the
great spacing and timing. if you don't have it, buy
it.
speaking of bill laswell, i downloaded "black lotus"
the other night. it's this great 10 minute workout
through the indian landscape he seems to love so much.
nitin sawhney-like, although it might have been before
it. what's this track from? is the whole album like
that?
the more i listen to badu, the more i like this album.
it just seems more layered, organic and original than
her first. maybe more confident. i think the
soulquarians sound is starting to meld with this work
and d'angelo's, although i wonder if it pushes a bit
too hard. just a thought.
alright, i'm done...
