Chris Turner – Liquid Love

turner

new from oakland native chris turner is this killer liquid love track. as heard on wednesday’s gilles peterson programme, this soul number flat out floored us on first (as well as many many repeat) listen(s). the arrangement features some awesome horn tones, claps, super cool rhythmic elements, and a simply fantastic swath of melodies. check it below.

vaccines! jenny lewis! ringo deathstarr! use your star power! ok, the vaccines are one of our fav uk debuts this year, blow it up is a pretty fresh single. get into it. jenny lewis and jonathan rice are committed to keeping you year’s supplied with jams. this new committed tune rips, roller skate. things we like about ringo deathstarr: band name, they sound pretty much exactly like mbv, things we don’t like about ringo deathstarr: they sound pretty much exactly like mbv. imagine hearts is a good fuckin tune though, lets come on.
