Just A Foreign Local

Sounds like a dream from a past era. 

Hundred Waters sang me to sleep last night with their serenely haunting acapella single Show Me Love. The beautiful harmonies have been featured on plenty of tracks recently (including one with Chance the Rapper!!) but this original lullaby has remained my favorite. Give it a listen

Frank Ocean manages to create a fluid dream that floats through multiple genres and themes subtly and seamlessly without once letting his listener slip from their reverie. It’s difficult, maybe impossible to assign this album a single genre but isn’t that what makes Frank so spectacular? Ocean continues to push the boundaries with Blond and leaves us with a masterpiece we’ll be listening to for years to come. 

Monte Booker delivers on this Soulection White Label release with a set of gorgeously unique tracks that kept me cranking that volume knob the whole way from Long Beach to LA. A+ driving music people.

Utterly enchanting is the most fitting description of this album in its entirety. The stunning arrangement and haunting vocals place you in a vibrant new reality which always seems to render me speechless. Thank god I have friends with amazing taste in music who share things like this with me.
