(UPDATE) Honest/ly RJD2 Peace Of What - (2016)

Update:  After the massive feedback I've gotten, thank you all by the way, I'm going to snag Dame Fortune first thing in the morning and listen to it while I travel up and down the east coast this weekend.  Expect a full WMV vinyl pick post when I get back in town after Easter.  I'll even try to spin Deadringer before I leave Saturday.  Frankly, Dame Fortune is sounding like it may be the "deepest" DJ album in a real long time, I'm talking 90's, to attack music. 

I can confirm that if you're in the New England states, you'll be able to find this album at Newbury Comics, (Call ahead to your local store, it hasn't hit their website yet.), or online through Amazon here.  Not familiar with RJD2?  Shame...  Check these guys out, they're kinda something special.

This is the most psyched I've been over a launch day album since Blackstar.

So this is happening on Friday 3/25/16.  The Philly Hip-Hop infused Chillwave DJ is back with his 10th studio album, Dame Fortune.  DJD2 falls into the category of music you've definitely heard but probably don't know where it came from.  From what I've heard of the new album, this one is full of guests, and all kinds of new rhythm.  I really can't wait to go on faith that this is as good as if not better than the last few of his albums that I've bought.  Remind me to feature 2002's Deadringer for you one day.

I'll be traveling to CT on Saturday, hHopefully Exile On Main Street  in Branford has this one in stock.  I gotta shop local whenever possible, though if that's not possible for you, it's available through Amazon, and I'm sure if you ask nicely, the fine folks at Newbury Comics ought to stock this one.

Honest/ly!? Maroon 5 - Songs About Jane - 2002

WAY back in the fairly early oughts...

There once was an indie group from LA

That had lots of insight for their day

Known once as Kara's Flowers

And now as something louder

It's any wonder they're still relevant today

And I stand by that...  However, before I spout off about how much I dislike Maroon 5 these days, I have to go back to when they were great.  I can promise you that for those that haven't heard the early workings of Maroon 5, this would sound like a completely different group.  I'll save the rest of anything I would have said about them or this album when I pick it for a spinning post in the future.  To that end, indeed I'm picking this album soon after it's official proper vinyl release next month.  Check it out and pre-order it on Amazon, and for the official announcement head over to Modern Vinyl

Harder To Breathe

Harder To Breathe was the first single from this album.
