Hamilton (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

[walk,on,by]

let me know what that is all about and if it is worth the listen.  all of sudden, everybody is in a Hamilton floodgate, as if it is the only play in town.

One of my favorite MCs (Daveed Diggs of clipping.) is in the cast and I did not realize it until a friend posted about it earlier... It is tight. 

The only play in town that I care about is Pericles (I am going to it in November in DC).

Plug - Drum 'n' Bass for Papa (some of the first electronic music I got into)

Pitchfork gave it a 9.5 (was searching for info on the album and saw it)

Plug
Drum'n'Bass for Papa
[Blue Planet/Nothing/Interscope]
Rating: 9.5

In my world -- the world made purely of music -- you can stop by any corner for a little four- piece pop, but if ya wanna hear some drum-n-bass, yer takin' the A train. It's somewhere in the outer reaches of electronic music where it rains fast, dry drumbeats that no human could ever play, and gusts of moaning harmonics blow the landscape. Not a place to hang out.

However, Luke Vibert, aka Plug, has put out this here little 2-CD set that brings the sunshine to this barren pioneer's land. A tremendously rich and complex drum-n-bass foundation (and that is, by the way, exactly what it sounds like: electronic drum [fast] and bass [slow]) with a seamlessly integrated layer of unexpected instruments and samples that make d-n-b viable to the inquiring non-techno listener! Disc one (Drum-n-Bass For Papa) is excellent the way DJ Shadow's Endtroducing is: When you listen to it from start to finish, you sit back and say, "Damn, that's good" with a sigh. Disc two (Plug EP's 1, 2 & 3) is a stronger shade of hard; less listenable but a solid companion. Take your shoes off, take a walk in the sand, enjoy the new day in drum-n-bass, and perhaps we'll go skinny-dipping later.

-James P. Wisdom

In 1999 my friend wanted to be a drum and bass DJ so I played the album for him and he was not impressed (he did have a tiny bit of success in the NOLA/Baton Rouge scenes though).  It takes all kinds I guess. 

I think it still sounds pretty fresh almost 20 years later.

(reason I revisited it was because Luke Vibert just dropped a new album but I wont listen to it till tomorrow)
