Today's #SampleSunday track is brought to you by Lushlife featuring Jabee and STS in Glistening . The trio sampled the classic Isley Brothers cut Love Put Me On The Corner . They reminisce on their up bringing, fond memories, and where they are today over a classic melody. Enjoy! Check out Glistening below: The original track: Love On The Corner : Be sure to follow Jabee , Lushlife [...]
Brown Recluse may describe themselves as "psychedelic/baroque pop," but what I hear, especially on their record, Panoptic Mirror Maze , is a spiraling funnel of vintage easy listening, Monkees-meet-Brian Wilson coastal radio pop, loose lo-fi lounge, organ rock, and 8-bit experiments. I know--that's super specific. But in order to understand the greatness of one of Philly's best kept secrets, you have to understand the textures and layers that define their sound. The band's ironic richness will be mixed in at Johnny Brenda's tonight with the one-man alt-hop innovator, Lushlife , who twists and melds beautiful old world [...]
This wasn't an easy day to pick Mixtape Of The Week. Most weeks, Waka Flocka Flame's ridiculously fun, satisfying Lebron Flocka James 3 would've been a lock for that particular distinction; I may still name it next week's Mixtape Of The Week if nothing else comes along in the meantime. By the same token, Philly standby Freeway dropped the rock-solid The Intermission , which featured the heartwarming State Property reunion track " 666 ," just yesterday. But the tape I've enjoyed most this week is one that could've easily [...]

"Nutsack symphonies" and soulful sounds defined Friday night at Union Transfer as Icebird , the new project from rjd2 and Aaron Livingston , celebrated its release of The Abandoned Lullaby right before rjd2 returned to the moveable stage to woo the crowd with his intergalactic garb and a hammer bearing Mario hand puppet. Lushlife opened the night with a dose of electro-hop, which contained raw beats over electrical sounds, rather than sampled bass-y thumps. Icebird unveiled to the masses a funky, groovy vibe transmitting much emotion via Aaron Livingston's facial expressions which [...]
Bowery Electric é uma dupla americana de música eletrônica formada em 1992 por Lawrence Chandler , Martha Schwendener e mais tarde, em 1994, pelo baterista Michael Johngren . Em sua discografia encontramos quatro discos bem elaborados que une a trip hop, a soul music e a música ambiental em um contexto muito interessante. Além disso, no currículo podemos acrescentar a participação do duo em diversas coletâneas e mixtapes, algumas bem conhecidas. Um detalhe interessante sobre eles é que foram uma das primeiras bandas americanas a usar [...]

Raj Haldar) has a new mixtape coming out on October 25 called No More Golden Days that will feature contributions from Das Racist's Heems, Brown Recluse 's Tim Meskers, RYAT , STS , and many others. Below is a remix of Lushlife's track "Still I Hear The World Progress" (which is off his upcoming mixtape and features the lovely croon and swoon of RYAT) done by Luxemburg's Sun Glitters (the moniker of Victor Ferreira). You can download it for free via Impose Magazine . Enjoy! [...]
Last we heard from Lushlife was the Cassette City tape in '09. He was playing rap classics on acoustic guitar and sampling Ariel Pink. Das Racist was earning critical kudos for a song that profoundly criticized American consumerism, while no one outside the publishing business took them seriously. It was a different time for indie rap when the only prior rapper of Indian descent to be heard was Punjabi MC over the Knight Rider beat. A time before "All Tan Everything". Lushlife has...
As we let y'all know last week with " Back On My Slang ", Philly's Lushlife is gearing up to release a new mixtape, No More Golden Days . And yesterday, he premiered a brand-new cut at Village Voice in "The Romance of the Telescope", which will have our uber-indie music fans salivating. It is a rework of OMD's track of the same name of their 1983 album, Dazzle Ships , and feature Andrew Cedermark, formerly of Titus Andronicus. Indie rock and hip-hop keep on colliding. And we're definitely more than OK with that. [...]

It's been a minute since we previously heard from Philadelphia-based rapper-producer Lushlife . But dude's apparently been spending his time wisely. He's prepping both a new mixtape and album, with the former dropping this month. Dubbed No More Golden Days , the mixtape is set to feature collaborations with Das Racist 's Heems, STS , Jabee, and, in the case of its first leak, QuEST . The Miami rapper spits some fucking ill double-time bars alongside Lushlife on "Back On My Slang", a track made for head-nodding and rewind buttons everywhere. Stream [...]

We have featured this Billy Strayhorn song before in June 2006. Back then we focused on the John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman version from an eponymously titled album featuring the celebrated tenor saxophonist collaborating with a great albeit little known jazz vocalist. Our accompanying write up for that "Lush Life" feature additionally provided a brief background on the song itself. This week we feature 24 versions of the song—and you needn't fret, I promise you, you won't be bored. [...]
The blogosphere has been on a serious dry spell of great Phineas Newborn Jr recordings, and I am here to change that. His rhythm was infallible, his sound was implacable, and his style was undeniable. Recently, I came across this video of a live performance of Lush Life which he featured on his album, A World of Piano! . His playing aside, I was also immediately enamored with the introductory turn of phrase in this video where he is described as performing "... t he [...]
This hypnotic fresh track was just recently dropped on Botany's Soundcloud - apparently, he overesaw the production on it - and comes from the Philly electronic wunderkind Lushlife . It's specifically titled as being instrumental, so I'm not sure if vocals are gonna be thrown over it, but I'm quite satisfied with the notion of looped harp plucking and hip-hop flavored bass and drums being meshed together as is. Stream the cut below. [...]
This hypnotic fresh track was just recently dropped on Botany's Soundcloud - apparently, he overesaw the production on it - and comes from the Philly electronic wunderkind Lushlife . The cut is specifically titled as being "Instrumental", so I'm not certain if vocals are going to eventually be thrown into the mix, but I'm quite satisfied with the notion of looped harp plucking and hip-hop flavored bass and drums being meshed together as is. Maybe it should be done more often. Stream the cut below. * Track is actually titled "Big Sur". [...]
