Susumu Yokota - Grinning Cat (2001) Full Album



I just found out Susuma Yokota passed away a year ago at only 54 years old. I'm very saddened to hear will will never grace us with new music again. He'll always be in my secret music drawer where i keep my secret music knowledge that I don't share with many others. Ambient, experimental and beautiful, his music lives on. This album, Grinning Cat, is a great soundtrack for a rainy day or simply improving the quality of your life.

Radical Man - Prince



RIP to Prince who [mad]changed the game in so many ways and was just plain better than his contemporaries in so many ways. I love the message in this unknown cut off a Spike Lee movie soundtrack. Prince, you will always be a radical man.

DangerDoom (Danger Mouse & MF DOOM) - Crosshairs



This beat is sampled from Thoughtful Popper off Don Harper's Strings Go Pop / Brass & String Bag Library LP . It's the holy grail for DangerDoom fans. Extremely rare. This Dangerdoom LP is one of those LPs that seems to eternally get better the more times you listen to it. MF Doom, one of the best to ever do it. 

Don Harper - Thoughtful Popper (1971)



This is Thoughtful Popper off Don Harper's Strings Go Pop / Brass & String Bag Library LP . It's the holy grail for DangerDoom fans. Extremely rare.

Sampled by Dangermouse on the track Crosshairs which I will post next so you can hear the magic.
