Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth- The Basement (J1K Remix)

 Produced by Oddisee. From the upcoming return of Diamond District "March On Washington" October 14th.  Diamond District is yU, Oddisee, and Uptown XO. 

When Diamond District dropped In the Ruff on Mello Music Group in 2009, the gritty drums and grimy raps combined as elementally as hydrogen and oxygen. The D.C. Voltron of Oddisee, yU, and X.O. dusted off and revitalized a sound once consigned to the catacombs.

Hailed as an instance classic, its impact reverberated throughout the underground and mainstream. The Washington D.C. City Paper called it the city’s best album in many years. During an era when lyricism was deemed too intellectual and samples too dated,Diamond District overturned conventional logic. They preserved the raw and made it righteous.

A half-decade later, the holy trinity has returned with March on Washington. The truths remain timeless. Wisdom over rhythm. Slang turned into testament.

Luther Vandross passed away ten years ago today, aged 54. Initially known as a backing singer for the likes of Chic and David Bowie, Vandross launched a stellar solo career with the instant classic ‘Never Too Much’ in 1981. 

And as every couple knows: if you want to get it on, Vandross’ music is where it’s at.  New transatlantic duo Golden Rules pay tribute to this enduring quality on their new song, ‘Play Some Luther’. 

Golden Rules vocalist Eric Biddines directs his amorous attentions to the recent Joe Goddard-collaborator and BBC radio host Mara Carlyle, who finds time amongst the romance to play the musical saw, while producer Paul White shows his versatility with a spacious, beautiful track. 

Golden Rules also created this playlist of some of their favourite Luther Vandross records: http://smarturl.it/GR-LV-Spotify

Paul White and Eric Biddines are Golden Rules. Their debut album of soulful, psychedelic hip-hop, Golden Ticket, is out 7th August on Lex Records.
