How come I didn’t know about this Pete Rock/Camp Lo collab?!?!?
 
Both are very good! Holy Hive might actually be more interesting than Moses.
Caveat, your mileage is gonna vary on that. Miles is stretching the boundaries of music in general. Holy Hive is doing interesting things with minimalism and have a very folky flavor for a soul act. I personally find someone like The Staves who are doing new and exciting things with harmony more exciting than something like Oneohtrix Point Never with their experimental work.
 
Even though RTJ dropped early, I'm still really excited for todays releases!

Courtney Marie Andrews - Old Flowers

Today was all about RTJ4 for me, but since it dropped early today is...still all about RTJ4 for me haha I have Muzz - Muzz and Jessie Ware - What’s Your Pleasure? on my list too, but I honestly have no idea where I got those recommendations from haha Will have to check them out eventually as well.

When you posted this last week I had listened to Holy Hives once and thought you were crazy haha. I spent some more dedicated time with Holy Hive last night and I'm leaning towards agreeing with you now. After a few listens this one grew on me a ton and is really great! Definitely has some interesting sounds, and while I mostly consider it a soul album, I do hear that folk influence as well and think it's great.

It and Atkins are the best growers so far this year.
