BANDCAMP SUGGESTIONS: SwAGG!T’s “Food For You”
Wouldn’t you love to be able to get your favorite albums or singles, slice it and place it between two slices of bread, maybe even a bagel or a sweet bread roll? The guys in SwAGG!T did, and while it’s impossible to slice sound, you can make a metaphorical crafty sandwich if you wish, which is what they’ve done for their album Food For You, featuring productions from folks like Knxwledge, Herring Franky, SoulShoes Beats,
BuddahSPK, and even Madlib. 12 tracks of good sounds served up Maryland style but with a bit of Tennessee essence, showing hints of the Native Tongue with the spontaneity of Outkast. Like how that sounds? Wait until you actually hear it. You might want to add gravy to it.

VIDEO: Liquid Crystal Project’s “Equinox”
J Rawls (production), Rob Riley (drums), B Jazz (keyboards/production), Eddie Bayard and Charles Cooper (saxophonest) are a new quintet who want to be known as the Liquid Crystal Project, and for “Equinox” they play the kind of smoothed out soul/jazz that helped to create a lot of children in the late 70’s and throughout the 80’s. If you like passion fruit, take a bite of this musical junk juices.
The video was directed by Charles Ewing.
