New Music Friday!

I always dug this Isaiah Rashad track…

…worth checking out his older stuff along with this new one for sure.

I plan to do some digging after dinner this evening before the new releases drop. Will start here, thanks.

The part of me that was hoping for SZA is naturally a bit disappointed by this, but the part of me looking for stuff I don't already know is good with it.

I was hoping kendrick, sza or ab soul

But I'm just happy TDE is finally allowing someone to drop an album

Looks like the TDE release is going to be by Isaiah Rashad:

Even as a very casual Isaiah Rashad fan, that article was a great read.

It looks like Coldplay A Head Full of Dreams era 2 is on the way...

As usual with the label, this album is worth a look. L'Orange always solid, not super familiar with Namir Blade.

Just got an email from a filmmaker I worked with several years back about a soundtrack to a documentary he has been working on entitled Focused Life. The music is being released tomorrow (today? Friday) on Bandcamp, so thought I'd post a link here because, hey, you never know:

I'd be remiss not to note that Sarah Jarosz' Blue Heron Suite is out today. This was originally a commissioned, live-only performance at FreshGrass in 2017. She went to the studio with Jeff Picker and Jefferson Hamer in 2018 to functionally record it live-ish and it's just getting released today. The No Depression article about it sums up the sourcing and background really well, it's deeply personal and in my view noticeably different than anything she's done before. The introduction of a heavy guitar sound in the second quarter or so of the piece gives it different dimensions from her other works and the emotional play is really strong in the piece throughout.

Sarah Jarosz Announces ‘Blue Heron Suite,’ Recording of a FreshGrass Commission Honoring Her Mother - No Depression

If you live anywhere near water, chances are you’ve seen one: a great blue heron flying low against the sky, silent as it soars along a straight line toward its destination. Sarah Jarosz has seen them too — so […]

I want to call out the Interludes too. They are sublime, perfect transitions between songs. Specifically, Interlude 2 where Picker goes on a solo bass run into Across the Canyon - Reprise is a major standout and smoother than butter.

Very good album of covers

The Czarface/MF DOOM is exactly what I expected/hoped/wanted from the moment it was announced. Not really any surprise there.

This one, however, I went in mostly blind other than seeing it referenced in a few places leading up to today. 3/4 of the way through and I'm absolutely loving it so far!

This is fantastic!

That said, I know what I'm doing on June 1st!
