Soul Capsule – Lady Science
Simply her, a true icon. Nothing to add, just to listen.
Pino Daniele Chillo è nu buono uaglione
Naples, groove and childhood. The perfect combo.
St Germain – So Flute
The master and his music, for us who lived through the 90’s and the purity of house music that tastes like jazz, soulful, everything. A rare commodity.
Napolean Cherry – When You Had The Chance
After so many years, Music From Memory released this on a magnificent full album dedicated to Napoleon Cherry, we have 2 copies now. Love this, so smooth and relaxing.
Billy Coham – Stratus
Madness and rhythm find a perfect flow between rock, funk and soul. A force of the nature.
Danger Boys – Tropicana Suite
They’ve been phenomenal in putting together a record that has all the makings of a cult classic.
Nas – If I Ruled The World
One of the greatest rappers of all time. We spent hours watching MTV waiting for the video to come on.
Rare Silk – Storm
Incredible voices, a warm atmosphere, a unique trio that made us dream.
Funkadelic – Maggot Brain
An introspective, dramatic but also triumphal journey. The perfect cure whenever I need it.
Fuga da New York – The Dukes Arrives / The Barricade
When it came out there was nothing remotely comparable, the music was so enthralling that it projected you into the film.
Thanksmate ‘Your Friend’ is out now on It’s A Pleasure.
