Retro-R&B

Hello, Lawrell here. Eggmun will be absent this week, I will be posting two albums in his stead.

Summer has come, and what better way to celebrate it than with summery music? Retro-R&B most certainly fits that bill, and as you can guess, it sounds like old R&B. And when I say old, I'm thinking about 1950's old, not contemporary R&B from two or three decades ago. Think, say, Ray Charles. Retro music revival has become a thing lately, but retro-R&B is still pretty niche, which is a shame because it's so damned groovy. If JD McPherson's Signs & Signifiers and Nick Waterhouse's Time's All Gone were played on jukeboxes in good ol' 50's diners, it would definitely not feel out of place. 

Jazz

Good day. Sorry about my unfulfilled promise from last week, I was supposed to write another post last week, but things happened on my side that prevented me from doing so. You should at least expect one post a week, every Tuesday or Wednesday.

Anyway, let's get started with some Jazz albums, shall we?

Fresh blood

Hey guys, sorry for the delay between posts, things should be picking up soon™ due to a couple of reasons, the biggest of which I'm making this post for. There's also going to be some music (as always), so let's hop to it: I'm sure at least a few of you will know of Lawrell, a good friend and old regular of my streams who is now doing his own streams as the best DJ for Eden radio. Our tastes are almost identical, so it makes sense to me to invite him on board as a new contributor for this blog. I plan on co-operating with him very closely from here on, and I hope that this change will improve the breadth, quality and frequency of posts. I'll leave the rest of this post after the break in his hands.
