Love it. I can't believe what he's done with BAA. I never thought we'd hear Common like this. I think Kendrick's album has influenced a lot of artists to make albums like this, especially with the election this year and all the racial issues.

nikkic Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Can't get on with the new Empire of The Sun album, only listened to it twice though so maybe deserves a bit more of my time. Honeyblood album is really good. Banks album is worth a listen. The new single by Bonobo is sublime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostdancer1 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 i like the 2 clips they've posted already, but doubt they'll be indicative of the actual songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostdancer1 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 and speaking of which, looks like the album might be out very soon, 12 new tracks from an xx album called I See You have been added to Shazam. http://www.stereogum.com/1910094/new-the-xx-album-i-see-you-apparently-coming-soon/news/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=timeline a 3rd clip was uploaded earlier today too.

ThomZorke Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Really liking the new SOHN single. If case you haven't heard his music, check it out! A very own kind of electronic music with soul influences, like James Blake would do more classically structured, poppier songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjsell Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 onto the third listen of the Palace album - some crackers on there. Live Well currently up there as a favourite track. Thank you to all who recommended it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you heard Like Water For Chocolate? Common has pretty much gone back to that and Be to create a real piece of art. Not one skippable track. I was a bit about Love Star because I'd heard it when it came out and singles stand out in an album for me sometimes. I didn't listen to anything else prior and after multiple listens it fits in within the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onwards with the rest of his catalogue... Be is a masterpiece. Kanye and J Dilla are their very very best. Check out Like Water For Chocolate too, for something more like his new album. His latest albums haven't really hit the mark. I think with Finding Forever he tried to recreate a Be 2.0 but it didn't quite work, still an alright album though. This was made for this album (short film). Edited November 8, 2016 by EighteenSixty7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeliam Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 It's not 2016 (sorry for the off topic) but it should be new music for most of you there! Most popular lebanese band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
