THEESatisfaction - Enchantruss

Is it the fact that these ladies simply are being who they are instead of being see through why I gets down to their sound? Or is it just that they're dope! Dope they are indeed. Just a couple of months ago, I'd come to know of the Seattle, Wa duo known as THEESatisfaction. Comprised of Stasia Irons and Catherine Harris-White, the two caught my attention one night while listening to the Giles Peterson show. Can't recall the name of the song, but the hypnotic production and echoing harmonies froze me for just a min - long enough to allow their sound to penetrate my eardrums and add them to my list of artist to watch for. Their latest single to drop is "Enchantruss," another captivating experience in sound and lyrics that showcases the eccentric creativity these ladies posses. Dropping March, 27th on Sub Pop Records, their debut, awE naturalE is one you don't want to sleep on. 

Allen Stone - Unaware (Live Video)

Heard this joint while listening to 22tracks and had to inquire about dude. Shocked to see who the singer was, but nonetheless Allen Stone has a soulful voice that can't be denied. I appreciate that fact that this is so organic - live from his mother's home and it plays just as beautiful as the recorded song itself. "Unaware" comes via his sophomore effort - Allen Stone. Some pretty nice tunes provided the preview on itunes. It's been added to my wish list. Check it out for self.

Malice & Mario Sweet - Happy 2 Year: Deluxe Edition & Love & Friendship (Video)

Earlier this year, Seattle, Washington based husband & wife duo, Malice & Mario Sweet gave to the world their Happy 2 Year EP as an introduction to their work. The lead single, "Speed of Light," produced by none other than my dude, Tall Black Guy showcased one dimension of the couples soulful/good feeling vibe. Now several months later, the three unite once more to bring a very cool & sexy type joint entitled "Love and Friendship" off their new release, Happy Two Year: Deluxe Edition. As you can see from the video, the couple share their relationship and what they do while out on tour with The Physics and Blue Scholars. 

Along with the gems from the first installment, Malice & Mario have included the new TBG single and three remixes for you to delight in. Show your support for good music on itunes or on bandcamp.  #Happy2Year again!
