Border Crossing
This blog thing has its obvious advantages. Free music of course, but often that means 75% of unlistenable crap that has little relationship to the kinds of things I post up here. I try to keep up with shit, so when something surfaces that was otherwise off the radar, its a small victory. That's exatly what happened with Ominous from Border Crossing a connected UK trio who will soon be a staple of your downtempo explorations. These dudes come from serious West London musical stock (read their bio on the site linked below) and bring a pro debut that channels Massive Attack and that seminal group's many acolytes. Apparantly the record was released in 2004 and sort of slipped by but I am sure this re-release by the new Sound Recordings imprint -- which strangely enough counts SK friend Drake as label artist -- will definitely turn heads. I'm sure you UK readers already are on this, but you US heads need to check Border Crossing. Resources
