What a wasted opportunity this: http://www.discogs.com/release/710818 is. Should have guessed when it wasn't Boomkat's Album Of All Time a couple of weeks back. 30 tracks in 70ish minutes not a great sign either I guess. Bought it anyway, and totally underwhelmed by the whole thing. The individual tracks are faultless, obviously, but the mixing is really dull depsite being technically proficient (at least as far as matching the beats goes). Some unforgiveable ommissions too... no Music People, no Runaway, and worst of all no J.A.N!!!

One discovery on it though: Moodymann's Givin' U Something, which I hadn't heard. Real nice...

dude if you don't have all of 30 of those tracks on vinyl you don't even deserve to have an opinion about moodymann.

if you're not from Detroit you don't even deserve to have all 30 of those tracks on vinyl...

Y'know, some of these niggas who say they're from Detroit, ain't even from Detroit.

three months pass...

Anybody know anything about the new album? When's it due? He was playing tracks from it on that Giles Peterson show he did a few months back and said it wouldn't be long.

Not that I would have any inside scoop on this anyway, but in general his stuff seems to just appear out of the ether and his estimated release dates probably don't mean much either. He did have a production hand in this newest Mahogani release, but who knows about the rest: http://www.discogs.com/release/1210211

Mick Collins (M19) dropped yesterday. 2 Andres 12"s up next.

The one sheet mentions an Andres album as well.

"Taken Away" has vanished from streaming and Bandcamp. Sample issues?
