For those of us who are out of it:
Can you hook us up with an URL for the mix Mr. Milkweed?
Mr. Attias is indeed the man with the fine taste.
Everyone really must check out the new stuff he's producing (with
Paul Martin) as Beatless. On Ubiquity Records. The LP should drop
soon. The tracks I've heard on 12"s are astoundingly fresh,
spiritual, amazing tunes. "Life Mirrors" a particular favorite.
Also I think the new LP from Yesterday's New Quintet really should be
on the list of every discerning AJ listener. If you like your beats
warm and raw, this album is an unfinished, human, freeflowing oasis
of soul jazz. Find some sound samples and see if it hits you. Not for
everyone, but if you can handle the looseness of it, there's much to
be enjoyed here.
I was surprised to learn that the whole group is none other than
Madlib (producer for lootpack, declaime and other notable hip hop
groups).
A number of people have remarked that the line between hiphop and
jazz is completely erased on this one. Bet.
Cheers y'all, hope things are peaceful in your neck of the woods.
