LA Mitchell - Family Song Book

This track is like Agnes Obel & Mitski. Its a deep dive into the idea purpose and discontent.

Glove

In Christchurch, March 15th 2019 my eldest daughter turned 5, and a shooter ran into a Mosque.  We were locked down in the kindergarten.  The women in my community were wailing, in an instant  their children were fatherless, mothers were solo-parents. After that day we made a decision to walk together with them to and from Kindy, because no body felt safe and every white man  held  the risk of violence. 'Will you shoot us?' ' Do you harbour the thought?' "Grief" is the observation of fragility. Of the grief I felt in the failure of one single human to value others as he valued himself. Of his failure to be descent. Grief is for the women, who lost and lost and lost again but  who became out friends, who made us lunch and who we taught to drive. Who we laughed and cried with.  Who I daily marvelled at how they carried on. 
We are the shooter, 
We are the widowed 
we are the orphaned 
and we reach each other through love.

Grief.

Hot off the press. Just made it this afternoon. Samples from 2 different ballads chopped, rearranged and fortified to create this soulful track. For fans of Dilla, Hi-Tek, Pete Rock, 9th Wonder, No ID etc.

(Thx 2 Sunbiz for showing me the new Logic 9 trick "Convert regions to new sampler track"... ). Makes life so much easier. And the Akai LPK mini keyboard is sweet too. So small but useful.

Simon Green aka Bonobo returns with his fourth, most eagerly-anticipated and most accomplished album to date, the magnificent 'Black Sands'. Green proves once and for all with 'Black Sands' that he is an artist and producer with his sights set on much higher prizes than to rule any dusty subgenre of dance music. This is a record of epic reach and massive emotional pull, all held together by Green's understanding of composition and arrangement of live instruments (most of them also played by him) as well as his complete mastery of the tricks and techniques of the digital age. 'Black Sands' is the most contemporary record he has ever made.
