Last self promotion post, I promise. This week's episode of my podcast plays more like a game and allows you to guess each of the 6 samples we discuss at a higher level and report how you did guessing in the Spotify poll. Thought you might like it, and this will be the episode format every 3rd episode. Hope you enjoy!
Episode 2 of my podcast dropped today! Check it out if you feel so inclined
First episode of Sample Mining is up now! If you're interested, follow, share, rate and be sure to answer the poll after each episode!
I select a sample each week and use that to tell a story about the background or history of the music or artist in some way.
Hey guys, I started a music podcast called Sample Mining! The trailer is up now and first episode will go up next Wednesday. There will be 10 episodes released weekly. Each week I select a single sample (mostly used in hip-hop songs) and tell a story behind it or related to it. If you're interested, I'd love if you checked it out!
Did anyone happen to grab an extra Mac Miller - Devine Feminine from Urban on Friday during that debacle of a drop? Been wanting this one for a long time, kept refreshing, and someone found a backdoor and posted on Reddit, so by the time it went live in the app (was supposed to be an app exclusive) and I saw it, it was already sold out
Should we start a new sub-forum?!haha

Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats are easily one of the greatest live shows. So much energy and so much fun!
I'm really loving the new Leon Bridges album! Vinyl showed up early, listened a few times through now and think it's great. A much more low key vibe, and it's been perfect this evening

Samples & Interpolations
I've always been a hip-hop fan, but as I've started becoming a bigger soul/funk fan I've really enjoyed stumbling across old songs and realizing it was sampled in a hip-hop song I love. I've started taking a deep dive on samples and even keep a playlist tracking my favorites. I'm always looking...

My wife called to ask what record I had delivered today (which she never does). Turns out she asked because they laid it flat on the ground in front of our garage and she ran it over with the Suburban when she was pulling in! Amazingly, other than ring wear it appears to be fine though haha
Edit: she ran over it twice before realizing it was there!

Looking for recommendations on songs featuring a vocalist and just an electric guitar. These are some of my all time favorite songs and I'm looking for some more in the same vein: Gary Clark Jr. - Things Are Changin' (Solo Acoustic Live), Dua Lipa - I'd Rather Go Blind, Lianne La Havas - Bittersweet (Live).

Being a big fan of The Lumineers I'm not sure how I overlooked this one last year but the solo covers album that Wesley Shultz released is fantastic. He just seems to have this way of making a song heart-breaking or gut-wrenching (and I mean that in a good way haha) and really just getting the emotion across in his songs. That's definitely on full display on this album, highly recommended!...
The N&G Holiday Challenge had 9 participants who tallied 6 days, 4 hours, 56 minutes, and 43 seconds worth of workouts! @debianlinux was once again our winner!
