Monday Mixtape, Vol. 38
A few very quick blurbs about this week’s music:
If you haven’t gotten into The Staves - and this track wets your whistle - please listen to their gorgeous album from 2014, If I Was
I’ve been following Dizzy Wright for a bit, and he seems to be making some serious traction as he’s showing up on tracks with a bunch of bigger rappers. This track, from his new EP, is instantaneously likable.
Nap Eyes is a little bit Belle & Sebastian (ok, a lot), and I just dug this track (and not as much the album)
I had Sunflower Bean on a previous mixtape, but this track rocks. I’m enjoying their debut album.
Static Selektah is basically DJ Premier 2.0. Premier is one of my favorite producers ever. Selektah’s beats are very 90s and all pretty great. This one has a very ATCQ-like rhythm. And one of my faves, Ab-Soul, is on it.
Bibio has always interested me. He has music to play in the morning or to wake up to after a nap. Chill.
Have a good week! I’m off to Denver and LA this week.
