such amazing recommendations here!! reminded me of scouring obscure music blogs as a teenager and finding new songs to obsess over. can't wait to dive into these~

Stemlines' U R HERE has such a genius sound, to me. I couldn't put my finger on what about it I was attracted to when I first listened to it, so its interesting to see it contextualized as part of your afropsychedelia canon.

omg your taste in music and art and everything >>>>

and i agree, U R HERE is indescribable in the best way. i replayed it yesterday and realized i needed to spend much more time with it to unpack.

Really enjoyed this! I need to check out the other volumes.

My addition if I had to pick one would be ‘Indigoism’ by The Underachievers. Classic NY mixtape full of esoteric messaging

wow you just took me back with that album! haven’t thought about The Underachievers in years. both them and Flatbush Zombies rightfully have a place in the canon—i need to go back and revisit so thanks for the reminder ☺️
