Re: the new Thundercat. Keep in mind most of the songs are similar to this track featuring Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins:
Butt...you should buy it anyway.
The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off
Doing some blog cleanup and have discovered some news items I think will be of interest here:
Tusmørke's 4th album is set to be released on May 12. Working title is Hinsides, which Google tells me means "Beyond". Cool.
Agusa is working on their 3rd studio album likely to be released in 2017.
And there was even a hint dropped for a new Phlox (Estonia) album. Yee-haw!
Oh, and just a metal diversion. Avatarium's new album will be titled Hurricanes and Halos and set to be released May 26th. My overview of the band is: "Essentially, Avatarium are Candlemass with an organist and a female vocalist who sings as if its 1970. A potentially awesome combination, though there's no mistaking this is still doom metal."
Hopefully more news to come here, as I clean up....

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

JPL never stops to amaze me... seriously good
I was getting serious Canterbury vibes from that first Thundercat track. And yes, the vocals are very George Duke! The second one is so very Steely Dan!

Guitarist Shane Parish(Aleuchatistas etc) has a download album out, Few More Days-Live at The Mothlight; a duo session with drummer Michael Libramento.The music is high octane live guitar/drums fireworks that compares with the best duos i've heard,namely,Bob Bell/Ian Hood;Nels Cline/Gregg Bendian,Shane Parish(Perlowin)/Tatsuya Nakatani,perhaps a very few others.
It's available on Bandcamp and it's the real deal.Link provided.

I would like to hear more collaborations like this...from anyone! I wonder if they'll do some shows after Haken is through touring. I don't think Briggs is working on anything with BTBAM or Trioscapes.
Al Joseph's new one All Of Creation is pretty sweet (beware of some tasty shredding). a band would be nice too

Semente, an obscure Brazilian band, had released one very good album in 1999. Now, 18 years later, they have released their second. I haven't heard any of it, but looking forward to it.
Swedish 90s proggers Masque are releasing expanded editions of their albums. "Ten Ways" is now available on Spotify, Apple Music and iTunes.

Looks like Onírica, the new album from Kant Freud Kafka, is out now. A new one by Barock Project just dropped in, too.
