Brittany Bosco – Spectrum EP (Zip File)
I know I deserve a mad late pass for this, but I’m just getting around to the amazing Spectrum EP from Savannah’s Brittany Bosco. Like fellow Georgian Janelle Monae, Ms Bosco does have that futuristic element to her sound (like everybody out of that state these days), but the comparisons end there. Bosco brings a more soulful, jazzy element to her tracks. Songs like 8 Track sound retro without hyping the current Motown trend. With production by Alex Goose (who was responsible for Danny Swain’s fantastic album And I Love Her), the Spectrum EP foreshadows good things for Bosco’s debut album.
Also, this EP qualifies for the best packaging of 2008. Hands down.

ALBUM REVIEW:Massive Attack “Heligoland”
Massive Attack – Paradise Circus
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
Tomorrow marks the official release date (U.S. and Canada) for Heligoland, the 5th proper studio album by Massive Attack.
Whereas the 2003 release 100th Window glistened with mechanical accuracy and disciplined minimal techno, Heligoland finds the Bristol duo returning to the dirtier, dubbed out sound of [...]
Review: Corinne Bailey Rae – The Sea
It seemed like only yesterday that we saw fresh faced Leeds singer Corinne Bailey Rae burst onto the scene. Her self-titled debut album, laced with pop hits “Like A Star,” and the empowering “Put Your Records On,” made her a critical and commercial darling.
After experiencing the death of her husband, it seemed like Corrinne would [...]

Mixtape Review: SMKA – The 808 Experiment Vol 2
The SMKA compilation might lack the star power of Big Boi’s Purple Ribbon All-Stars compilation from a few years ago, but it is a solid piece of work, and should do good things for all who were involved.
