3001852, my 5hr tribute to Dwele (unreleased/bsides/rmxs/bootlegs)
Posted by araQual, Sat Feb-24-18 03:58 AM
CONFESSIONS OF A CURLY MIND presents a 5hr journey into the dope sounds of Dwele. consisting mostly of non-album cuts, unreleased tunes, b-sides, remixes and production work. Dwe is a bit of an all-round musical genius, but with this mix i wanted to highlight the original distinguishable 'sound' that made me fall in love with his work almost 20yrs ago: warm chords, Jay Dee level drum sounds and programming, + creative-ass lyrics & vocal delivery, surrounded by a raw warmth that makes it sound all so easy (it's not, dude just makes it look that way).

originally aired on 23/02 via Blue In Green Radio >>> www.blueingreenradio.com.

3001855, I love you V. Lawd knows I do....but no Open Your Eyes?!

I get leaving off Hold On and Find Our Love but his cover of Bobby Caldwell's joint....I just knew it would be here. Listening anyway of course.
3001868, lol it was a toss-up b/w two PPP & Dwele collab covers

i went with Ridin High cos i felt it was a lil less known than Open Your Eyes (which im pretty sure ended up on one of his solo albums as an official release). Ridin High was more of a random joint.

not that i think that sound of his ever disappeared, but it was unique enough among the hip hop and soul crowd to deserve a tribute like this.

I'm an advocate for working smarter, not harder. If you just
focus on working hard you end up making someone else rich and
not having much to show for it. (c) mad
