Homeboy Soundman with some rare grooves. Lots of soulful hooks on this multi disc set. His presentation is definitely his and his alone. Such a unique collection of wording but mostly positive ones with a spiritual lean. All good with me..

I do believe I enjoy these instrumental versions of these Pinch tracks over the ones with vocals. I just retuned to this album from 2007, just some #Dubstep thoughts via 2025.

I’m saddened by this, I’ve frequented this site for quite some time.

Long-running tech forum DSL Reports shuts down https://mobilesyrup.com/2025/01/20/long-running-tech-forum-dsl-reports-goes-offline/

Dub Techno via Manchester via the always reliable J.S.Zeiter, its pulse is infectious. This is my Sunday service..

John Zorn’s Bagatelles featuring Mary Halvorson. This is the streaming version that I believe just appeared on services recently. These were available through disc previously.

Psychedelic rhythms of global lean on this recording. Polyrhythmic house music with sounds both synth & human wrapping every ounce of this recording in warmth. I’d love to experience this in a live setting..

Bjork’s new live concert film Cornucopia is up on Apple TV now and I’m currently most of the way through. It’s gorgeous as you’d expect but I keep closing my eyes. I should be simply listening to this. #Bjork

Mind blowing collection featuring Congolese Titi Bakorta and Peruvian musician Alejandra Cardenas or Ale Hop as she’s known in this world. Polyrhythmic madness yet perfectly composed madness. I freakin love this!

This Bicep & Eliza track has a perfect rolling bass line, break and vocal hook.. very, very strong track right here..

Mala’s Boiler Room set, if you hate this fuck your music taste. ;) Not really but if you dislike, well, whatev… These early dubstep guys had a great aesthetic, I wish it stuck around. It all morphed so quickly. Drum & bass keep it real at least aesthetically speaking..

The type of techno track you’d like to play forever. C3D-E, need to hear more! Hashman, not sure cause I’m here for the former.

Mala’s Changes/Jah Power Dub was re-released in 2024, such a killer pairing of tracks. “Haile Selassie is an Amharic word that means power of the holy trinity”.. #Dubstep

Minimal techno kinda evening with a semi sunny collection from Brian Leeds. Simple, heady almost bangers but that was never their intention. Momentum achieved, I listened and my noggin is enjoying.

This Charles Lloyd recording is perhaps my most listened to recording of 2024. It feels like a masterpiece of sorts when I have it playing. The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow..

Sonically this band has the forward momentum of Disco Biscuits but the melodic tendencies of Minus the Bear or Braid. Oh, one more thing being that they’re from Japan adding another curve to their overall outlook/sound. I’ve enjoyed this album quite a bit on this Sunday.. https://liteband.bandcamp.com/album/strata

Dvalishvili Vs. Nurmahgomedov fight from #UFC311 last evening was incredible! I knew who won last night but slept through it. My wife knew how good it was..

This Kushida vs Konosuke Takeshita match via NJPW’s recent Battle in the Valley event has made my Sunday morning thus far. Just a solid, stiff & technical wrestling match in this style. Definitely not for money mark owners or fans. :) 🤼♂️ #NJPW #AEW

I do believe I’m looking forward to Philadelphia chasing Nick Nurse out of the city, Dude is always in the grill of the officiating crew. Folks who know don't like how he coaches but I don't really have the eye yet. This Sixers season seems to be a wash but the guy I take to games is loving every second. I’m also enjoying the experiences and education in the sport.

WWE Smackdown has been excellent tonight! The company is still firing on all cylinder with the wresting being incredible as well! Mania’ season should be fun this year… #WWE #Smackdown
