Young Rapids - Discuss

Man, oh man. I am into what these dudes from my hometown of DC are producing. Dynamic melodies driving like a big wave surprising beach goers, rolling over everything and not givin’ a hoot who is in the way but then slowly receding leaving everything soaking wet and confused.

You can pick up their really solid album Day Light Savings from the camp for a couple of bucks.

just did a short east coast tour with these guys. their recordings are really wonderful, but try to go see them live. it’s somethin.

I’ve been a guy who is into soul music for as long as I can remember. And now, finally, we have some insight into why: I’m a descendant of George Kerr.

Jackie Stoudemire - Invisible Wind (Instrumental) from Don’t Stop: Recording Tap

Syl Johnson - Is it because I’m Black? (Instrumental) from Light: On the South Side

The Tap Orchestra - Don’t Stop Dancin’ from Don’t Stop: Recording Tap

Antena - Sissexa from Camino Del Sol

The Majestic Arrows - I’ll Never Cry for Another Boy from Eccentric Soul: The Bandit Label

Our Numero Recommendations:
