Album Review: Foreign Exchange – Leave it All Behind
Foreign Exchange
Leave It All Behind
Netherlands producer Nicolay, and MC, Phonte one half of Little Brother have come together for their second Foreign Exchange effort entitled Leave it All Behind. With Nicolay moving to North Carolina where Phonte is from and still resides, one would think studio sessions as opposed to the Internet and file sharing [...]
Muhsinah Drops The The Oscillations: Sine
Muhsinah – Yiy
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
Watching Muhsinah’s career take off is like watching a child grow up.
I remember when Muhsinah dropped the Oscillations EP a few years go and became a DC favorite, but ever since then, she has officially blown up. Not only has she contributed to the glorious new Foreign [...]
New Music: Foreign Exchange feat Muhsinah – ‘Daykeeper’
Foreign Exchange feat Muhsinah - ‘Daykeeper’
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
Wow. I always doubted Phonte’s singing skills, but I’m pleasantly surprised by how this song went down. Of course Muhsinah compliments Phonte’s vocals over probably one of the best beats that Nicolay has ever created.
This may be the sleeper album of the year.

We are forced fed music that is derivative of another. Pop music all sounds the same, with each artist essentially sounding like the one who came 3 months before them. When we hear something as creative and [...]
ALBUM REVIEW: Outputmessage – Autonomous
Washington, DC by way of Queens, NY electronic dance music producer Outputmessage is likely one of the more underrated EDM artists in the genre. The eight year veteran has received terrific acclaim both stateside and abroad for his musically dense but pop trending melodies awakening a sense of early 80s synth pop sounds. However, with [...]
Album Review: Sade – Soldier of Love
While not a masterpiece, in an era where the market has been deluged by a new female soul vanguard that angles increasingly towards pop, Sade remains regal, calm, collected and steadfast, and merely releases the standard bearer album to define the female expression in R & B for 2010.
Sade’s musical legacy lies in her ability [...]
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 [...]
