Prefuse 73 - T5 Soul Sesions Volume 1



This is a few years old, but is hitting the spot big time. This is one of my fave CD's... this was a promo giveaway (limited copies) from NYC clothing store/line Triple Five Soul. Diplo did a mix as well, I think...

This is light years away from Prefuse 73 glitch hop weirdness. Just a straight up mix tap of 60's pop psych, Brazilian folk music, spiritual jazz, etc... I found this quote by the man on the internet "(It's) a small sample of what I go home and listen to. More than a traditional mixtape, I preferred to let the introspective side in and share the sounds that I play when I’m cooking dinner, just thinking, or not sitting behind an MPC and various instruments for 12 hours!"

Such a consistent vibe throughout. Mellow. Great CD to throw on and listen to all the way through when you are just cooling out.

Yeah, this one is quite good. Better than the TT5 Vol. 2 by Diplo. Did a Vol 3 ever come out?
