Episode #030 - Free Wheel

Welcome to another episode of Sounding Out The City...

This week, we start things off with a deep Afrobeat track with a hiphop sensibility from the mighty Budos Band off their new LP on the Daptone label. A Nico Gomez latin classic with a touch of psyche is next, followed by a familiar dubby loop, and Madlib's bollywood inspired hiphop instro.

We then get into a wicked bluesy R&B/soul funk nugget by John Fitch, a Sharon Jones deep funk headnodder, followed by a Syl Johnson goody before we dip into some old school hiphop with a twist.

Kid Gusto and Dusty Springfield set up what is (for me) a big tune called "Valerie" by Mark Ronson, featuring Amy Winehouse's signature voice. Then we get into a wicked and slightly dubby funk re-edit by the Barrio Katz. Essential stuff!

We close it out with a legendary accoustic guitar and breaks classic by Hard Meat, then one of my all time faves by Bill Withers before Cookie Woodson draws things to an end with a sweet soul track called "I'll Be True". The summer is definitely here.
