2644912, this is just an outtake but dangelo isnt really the R&B vanguard

anymore is he? he seems to have just settled into his little niche. which is cool, but this sounds a bit dated/kravitzy even. the synth lines and vocals are interesting on this, but i expect something a bit more... wrongly i know, lol, but i do (my personal little fantasy is to hear dangelo do a cover of james blakes wilhems scream, mainly cos blake obv tracks his vocals like dangelo, and dangelo can actually sing, and id like to hear him do something outside his now pretty familiar comfort zone). its a cool little studio outtake though, and the ending vamp is good - i could prob hear this a good few more times. sounds like part of a live jam session.

btw, im sick of that same old roots drum sound. i dont want to hear those snares anymore.

edit - actually, fuck it, this is just a great groove, kravitzy crunching and same old rim shots aside

does take me back to around 1998 though
