[MP3] J*DaVeY – Strong Anticipation

This sounds like a mid-career Madonna track which I mean in a (very) good way. You know, that time period when she was listening to a lot of French electronica and house music.

[MP3] Just Blaze – Inhuman Nature

As Just Blaze put it:

“Something to ride down the FDR to on a late night with the top down, reflecting on life… like Rocky in that one scene after Apollo died….”

Agreed! “Firm Family” used to be the song that I thought would be perfect in that scenario (although I was thinking West Side Highway was more scenic and apropos for that particular track).

[MP3] De La Soul Feat. Nas – God It

New De La Soul track featuring the equally legendary Nas (sadly only on the chorus, not on a full or even half verse) with a Dr. Dre “The Watcher” meets The Dap Kings feel but not even from the new album they recently had the smash kickstarter campaign for??! Crazy….

[MP3] Dynas & Tony Galvin – Who U? Feat. Slick Rick

Re: Dynas, “Who U?” is exactly the question I am asking….

[MP3] SATE – Warrior

New blues-rock heat rock from Toronto’s Saidah Baba Talibah under her new project name, SATE. Saw her tear it up at their debut show a few weeks back at the Dakota Tavern on the Ossington strip in downtown Toronto. She is back there with the rest of SATE for the second in a month long series of residency shows for the month of April this Sunday presented by Howl Growl Moan. CLICK HERE for details.
