Lyn Charles – Now I’m Living (Ft. Freeway)

A guy named Scott Sheldon sent us this tune a few weeks ago, maybe Lyn Charles himslef? or one of his compadres? Anyways, sick piano sample, nice horn lick, great chilled out vocal hook and an overall nice vibe to this fine piece of hiphop. Cannot recognize the sample and thats a rarity these days. I came across a lot of good hip hop songs these days. Same goes for rock/pop/indie/folk songs. Somehow anything that doesnt sound like its manufactured sheerly for mass consumption or that tastes too artificial. Its the genral feel that its turning toward live, organic, self made, music.. like Marvin said: “It’s music, pure and simple”. Thank you internets.

***ps whats that picture got to do with the tune? you go figure it out! me? i’m too busy being an eccentric over here

africa-hackney-colliery-band-CHROME-lay01
A short edit of my favourite tune at the moment. Just a quick little double timer for the djs, and all the folks who wanna incorporate this brilliant gem in a mix. Promised this to be online saturday, but the weather was marvelous and i had to take some time off to be for myself and so i chose aloneness, hahaha… Anyways, here it is: But first give the band some credit for their amazing original and the fun you will have with this tune, buy supporting them on their bandcamp site. ps check the label Wah Wah on Facebook, there are plenty more gems to discover. I found myself a fan at first glance. Expect this tune and the Hackney Colliery Band in this months YUM YUM top tunes (coming tomorrow:)

Enjoy this one and let the sunshine in..

Zaz – Je veux

My main girl and overall YUM YUM sweetheart Coco told me about this track like ages ago and i kept forgetting to put it online, then my buddy & co-author on chromemusic Danny, just recently hit me up with the video to Zaz amazing live version of this tune and its more than worth sharing. The lady must be big in france by now. Support her, the entire LP is worth checking out and Je veux keeps humming in my ear.
