we continue to be blown away with each successive freddie joachim release. “splendor” is taken from the 5-song “getaway” EP. “getaway” can be downloaded here for free. the ep is killer and in our opinion spotlights some of freddie joachim’s best work to date. we really dig the just awesome feel put into his records. there is an authenticity and classic quality to freddie’s music that evidences him as one to no doubt keep ears/eyes on.

“Magnet” is the next single off BBC’s debut I Had the Blues But I Shook Them Loose. the chorus is incredible, it just takes off with “oooooooo” and hooks baby hooks. so with guns blazin, who wins in a draw: “magnet” or the interpol catalogue?? our $$$ is on zombie ian curtis after an entrance from another dimension. either way, “magnet” is a glance at the future of a young and rather promising group..
the chef puts on a few bars in tribute to ODB. not much needs to be said, the rhymes are solid and sincere; and the beat!, it’s a dilla instrumental and it’s b.a.n.g.i.n.! “ason jones” is our fav off the just-released “only built 4 cuban linx, pt. 2”. the album is an instant classic, pick it up.
