This week the Swap Meet opened with recent gear from Benny Sings, Larry June, Moonchild, Mike, DoomCannon, Jenevieve among others. We tipped the hat to Bob Power, the legendary engineer who passed this week, so we marked the occasion with ATCQ and Roots tunes that set the bar. If you don't know what Bob Power did for hip-hop and soul read the internet until you do.
From there things got loose in the best way: rare soul, boogie, Gary Clail/On-U, Millie Jackson talking about her fireplace, afrobeat cuts, hip-house, and a stretch of late-night Philly and Detroit flavours via Vikter Duplaix and Wajeed. Laura Nyro supplied the dollar bin jam from her Golden Jubilee minted record "Smile", Gladys Knight, and Kurt Elling with the WDR Big Band sending everyone home feeling like they'd been somewhere worth going. Good show. Glad you're listening back - big up yourself.
Another stunner in the 09 today and we matched that energy, easin' on in as is our modus operandi. Faves from Mysticwood & MEZCAL, Combo Chimbita, Los Siquicos Litoraleños, NS KROO and KM 0 all featured and wayyyy more of course.
