No mention of the Red "I Should Tell Ya Momma On You" single? You sicken me, Stones Throw thread.

...or wait, that's not on Stones Throw proper is it? OK, I am less sickened now.

WAIT NO never mind, it's just the copyright on the digital release, the 7" is on Stones Throw! SICKENED AGAIN

The list of upcoming stuff from the latest mailer:

Dec: James Pants - Seven Seals (info & MP3)

2010: J.Rocc - Some Cold Rock Stuf
2010: Aloe Blacc - new album

Looking forward to the Haack comp. Also, I know nothing about Minimal Wave except that they put out an Oppenheimer Analysis reissue 12". If there's more where that came from, I can't wait.

that matthew larkin cassell album is one of the most beautiful things EVER with a really great digging story behind it.

surprised they're getting into the minimal wave game. doesn't seem black enough for them

The minimal wave comp shall be dope. Stones Throw mantra has always been from what I have seen- "We put out what we like".

what is "minimal wave"?

i guess i meant more minimal synth. it's like minimal, obscure new wave. lots belgian acts. i guess Minimal Wave is a label putting out new and reissues of this kinda stuff.

this was released on minimal wave. so dope

ugh why is everything on that minimal wave label so awesome yet so expensive

xp okay that does seem weird for ST to be getting into

Quality vinyl prints w/ small runs + fetish tendencies maybe? xp

ok Dr No's Ethiopium is fucking great

looks great

the new james pants is great. sounds like a mixture of ariel pink and john maus. also, he is channeling some strange religious vibe, i can tell he has been listening to a lot of the christian psych stuff ( dr hooker, azitis) and somehow mixing that with his usual electro/soul/post punk tendencies. its fucked up in a good way...i think the people who expect more of the last record the quirky hip/hop/party/electro stuff will def hate it... he's gone somewhere else with this one.

electrosoul

hope you're right about the Ethiopium, I wanted to like the Oxperiments album but it was pretty arduous. Couple good beats though. When a couple stonesthrow ppl + cut chemist opened for Mulatu this year, they were all fuckin great.

especially Quantic

Oscar you are making it sound like the new album takes after the Psychick Almanack mixtape which is making me VERY excited

guess paul whites plan to release limited edition albums/singles full of cut-n-paste samples (e.g)to get attention paid off then.

lol I'm not sure it "paid off" given that the above is a free podcast

no, but an increase in profile via stones throw is not going to hurt.
i can definitely see the ST fans loving pauls production style.

is paul white also the purple brain?

this purple brain?

am i dumb or do i really have to install itunes to get stones throw podcasts?

yeah this is fucking awesome!

rvng purple brain /= stonesthrow purple brain

"Blue eyed soul at it's best" indeed....not sure why he's on the Stones Throw Records label though.

the aloe blacc lp is excellent as well...

Got word recently that Stones Throw worked out a deal to put together a comp from Little Rock's True Soul Records. I'm so happy about this. Will finlly get to hear the catalog without chancing upon the (way less than) occasional 45 in the local Savers. You'd think being here in Little Rock it'd be easier to come across this stuff.

Damn that Paul white podcast is so good. The Todd rundgren section was unbelievably beautiful

the RVNG purple brain is bumrocks and one other guy

the aloe blacc lp is excellent as well...

yeah "dollar" is great ... stones throw put that out?? heard it on hot 97 one afternoon.

In "why is this on Stone's Throw" news, they're putting out the Anika album apparently. Which is produced by the Portishead guy. It sounds like Nico singing over ESG acetates.

And she covers "Masters of War" and "Terry," one of those "why did my boyfriend have to die on his motorcycle" tunes originally by Twinkle.

wow that sounds better than beak>

Stones Throw totally put out the aloe blacc LP, tho i hear universal have picked it up and will be giving it a big push in the new year...

wasnt feeling the j rocc album. sounded like a bunch of fake dj shadow tracks - not at all what i expected from j rocc as it just wasnt very funky really (liked play this too a bit though). the one sampling nas was great, and the very last track was great. the rest of it though, nah. sounded quite tired. shame as hes such a great dj.
