    SOUL TIES Playlist

    SOUL TIES playlist was inspired while I was listening to several songs that have a beautifully nostalgic 80s-electronic-r&b vibe to them but were actually released between now and the early 2000s. This is another playlist that I am taking my time with building. There are some songs that aren’t available to stream which I will eventually add to a mix version of this playlist later this year. I hope everyone that comes across it enjoys and that it takes them to a dreamy place like it does for me. Yes, that is Prince and his soulmate Denise “Vanity” Matthews on the cover. R.I.P. to them both. Follow me on Apple…

    Greighwolfe – Black EP

    The first song that I heard from the latest and what I mustered up as the very first EP from Greighwolfe had me HOT! No, I don’t mean that I was angry. I mean that in the same way that most of the music from Sade or The Weeknd makes me feel. That song was Hurt Me and it lead me to the rest of this brilliant project called the Black EP. Listening to this only a few times has lead me to put Greighwolfe in line with other great modern artists, such as Gary Clark Jr, who bring back the feel of good soul with elements of rock and…

    Canine Teeth – Thunderstorms ft. Dominic Robinson

    Since The Weeknd first dropped, you might have noticed the consciousness of darker r&b rise up. Spooky Black is another amazing example of this. I’ve recently been introduced to yet another perspective with this beautiful project started by Canine Teeth’s Erik Anderson. The first single from this collaborative project, Thunderstorm suits its title with some MUST hear production. Thunderstorm is a hypnotic blend of electronic sounds with some smooth and classic, yet brooding r&B vocals provided by Dominic Robinson. It’s a perfect showcase to the rest of the first project by Canine Teeth, Leviathan, which will be available digitally on DRKArts, August 5, 2014. Follow the links for more on…

    The Weeknd – Often

    I’m feeling the urge to update with more music lately! I guess my period of avoiding the intake of too much music has ended. For a while, I found myself reluctant to listen to music as much as I once did because of a metamorphosis of sorts. You know, we all know the roller coaster moments in life… I couldn’t handle the journey I usually go on when I listen to music because of what was happening to me internally. My life was shifted so greatly that music wasn’t as important for me to absorb as it was for me to start writing. This was only for a month or…
