I had only vague ideas on what to do this week for the show. It took some twisting and turning to figure out what songs to play this week but I feel that this is a particularly strong show this week. You be the judge. Gregory Porter - Bling Bling This album is amazing. It instantly lifts your spirits. It's makes you think of home. It's everything a jazz vocal album should be. It oddly reminds me of early Will Downing. Be Good  is just great. Jonti - Twirligig Johnathan Blake - Blue News Things are all coming together for the Johnathan Blake album stream. Are you excited? Jack DeJohnette - Sonny Light I'm still liking Sound Travels . Geri Allen & Timeline - In Appreciation This should be a good show at the McAllister Auditorium on Sunday. Jonny Greenwood - Proven Lands Steve Bernstein's Millennial Territory Orchestra - You Can Make It If You Try This was the most perplexing thing on the Bonnaroo lineup . Seriously, check the bottom. What's that doing...

It's the first Line-Up of the new year and I have a ton of new music to play. I'm pretty hype. Jaspects feat. Janelle Monaé - 2012 The computer picked this track but how can you say no to playing this? Even JJ Lopez was eyeballing this track but left it to me to play. Flying Lotus - ...And the World Laughs with You feat. Thom Yorke Dave Douglas - Fatty's Day Off The computer also picked this track but I'm not making a habit of that this week. Nicolay with the Hot at Nights - Satellite I decided to run with another track from the  Shibuya Session EP . It's new enough to fit in with this show and I think it works particularly well in this set. Mister Barrington - Landing When I'm telling you II  is going to be a vast improvement over this group's self-titled debut last year, believe me. My stanning for Danziger, Rockberger, and Biddle is paying off right now. Radiohead - Climbing Up the Walls (Zero 7 Remix) Neil Cowley Trio - Rooster Was a Witness...

This week's show has some highlights; for example, I have no words to articulate the amount of glee I feel about this week's soul set. I'm particularly happy playing new music that I just got. There are times when I put together a show and want to keep the mp3 file archived for the sake of awesomeness later. This feels like it's going to be one of those shows. Le Bouef Brothers - Fire Dancing Dreams I don't know how it came to me to play this at the top of the hour. The rest of the show seemed to come together with so much coolness and energy that I went against type, usually playing a tamer track to ease the show in, and went with something a little more out there while still palatable. This fit the bill. Nujabes - Arurian Dance BADBADNOTGOOD - Rotten Decay I know I have a tendency of playing just about everything this group releases, but I couldn't pass this track up just because they've finally made the momentous benchmark of releasing an original ...
