Listening too......


You know when you are having a shitty day or days? That one person who is always there to say that "things happen for a reason?" As much as i hate to admit it...... the saying is true. I will explain about that in more detail at a later time. We will journey together down memory lane though.

Story:

Driving back home on New Years day i was listening to NPR who at that moment in time were doing a best of 08. The musical act who got best Independent Artists is this guy based out of NY named Son Lux. He composes for dance companies in NY and also came out with a album last year. The station played some short excerpts from his CD and i fell in love. His music is hip-hop influenced with rich undertones. Melodic. Listening to the tracks you can tell that his arrangements are well composed and super tight cause he has a classical background. The music is not so far out there that someone who is not in to that kinda stuff would not be able to appreciate it, yet its still on that next level shit. Once i got home i went online to listen to more of his music and he had remixes of Beirut and Radiohead. Thats when it was true love for me.

Anywhos, give it a listen. Its good shit.
