Ladies & gentlemen...

Never Sleep II is finally here!


The album includes 54 minutes of dopeness: 14 instrumentals, 5 interludes & 2 songs with special appearances by Jondis & Junclassic! Those who have Never Sleep I know that all of the material was created during the hours of midnight & 6am, hence the name Never Sleep. This project follows the same format, but is light years ahead in terms of sonic quality & sophistication.

Peace & respect to everyone who supports. Music is the universal language & this is only the beginning!

Peace, respect & welcome to the January 2010 edition of the “2 Raw for the Average Listener” mixtape series. As you already know, if it ain’t on wax, it ain’t on the tape! All of these gems come straight from my turntable to your ears.

Some people are willing to trade quality for convenience, while others still appreciate the sonic beauty, dynamic range & rugged crackle of a vinyl record. 2 Raw brings you the best of both worlds, one month at a time.  

Keep your head up – 2010 is gonna be dope…

2 Raw for the Average Listener

Peace & welcome to the first installment of the “2 Raw for the Average Listener” mixtape series. For this particular session, I’ve decided to include some familiar gems to get things started. In future editions you can expect to journey much deeper into the crates.

There’s nothing that can compare to that feeling you get when you discover something new and beautiful. I hope to be able to provide that feeling to some listeners and bring a smile to the face of others who are already familiar.

This series will differ slightly from the traditional mixtape in that it won’t be filled with shout-outs or scratching. The project is not a display of my capabilities, but rather a tribute to the musical pioneers and innovators of the past (and occasionally the present).

Please enjoy this collection of songs & pass it onto others. Music is art. Art is love. Later.


Tracklist

1 The Meters – Same Old Thing
2 Dorothy Ashby – Soul Vibrations
3 Lonnie Liston Smith & the Cosmic Echoes – Devika (Goddess)
4 Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’66 - Cinnamon and Clove
5 Gary Burton - Las Vegas Tango
6 The Silhouettes - Fonky first
7 Yusef Lateef – Russell and Eliot
