It's been a while since I posted any music. I have been spending time on other pursuits this summer, but did continue to collect songs along the way. I guess this could be viewed as a summer retrospective. The selection is broken up in to 4 parts for convenience.

January 25th marked the 19th anniversary of the influential D'angelo album, "Voodoo". Many of the artists who were involved with the project were reminiscing on social media about the experience of creating it. The core group of musicians on the album were part of a collective called the "Soulquarians". This playlist includes a few cuts from projects created by this collective. If you want to know more about the history and influence of the Soulquarians, I suggest reading this oral history: http://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2015/06/the-soulquarians-at-electric-lady
