Feel like this might be the first bigger day in a few weeks.

Surprise release from Taylor Swift (Evermore).

The Avalanches - We Will Always Love You

Petestrumentals III

some other big releases I'm forgetting right now. What's on everyone's radar?

3028946, new Mello release, Dueling Experts - DE2: Sand The Floor
Posted by Oak27, Fri Dec-11-20 12:05 PM
These guys came up on my Release Radar a few weeks ago with their single from this album "Revolve Around Sciences" (https://open.spotify.com/track/33baezSjTTRyMdyt3SteHY?si=aL6RT-bwSyqLU0RhMBN6Xw).

Mello Music Group will always get an hour of my attention any Friday they drop something new. I had never heard of Recognize Ali, but familiar with Verbal Kent through Ugly Heroes. He doesn't move me much as a rapper, but I'm able to get past that indifference since the beats on here are real nice. Might go back and check out their first album.
3028947, nice - thanks for this

I need a full list of what they released this year, I know I missed some stuff...

3028948, Yeah I keep being tempted to start a MMG post at the start of the year

Maybe I'll do that for 2021.

Damn this is *really* good. I only wish it was longer, lol -- excellent from top to bottom, listened to it twice in a row and might go back for a third round before the night is through.

3028953, yussef dayes trio - welcome to the hills (live)
Posted by thebigfunk, Fri Dec-11-20 03:37 PM
Live set from dayes' group -- only a few tracks in but it is straight heat so far...

Live records make me wish I could drive up to Chicago for a few days and catch a few shows... but that's not on the agenda for who knows how long now. 2020 can't end soon enough...

3028960, Pete Rock and Nicolay - A New World
Posted by DJR, Fri Dec-11-20 08:43 PM
Really like the title track off Nicolay’s new one.
3028973, Enjoyed the new Boldy James project
Posted by Oak27, Sat Dec-12-20 03:30 PM
Glad I have it a listen. If it hadn't been so short I probably would have just skipped it since the other projects of his from earlier this year didn't grab me. I liked the single with SGC so that helped as well. Gonna have to check out more Real Bad Man work.
3028976, Moor Mother / Billy Woods - BRASS
