Jr. Gong, my internal soundtrack for weeks and weeks.
rockthetropics
Flooring lyrics, insane beat, and Khujo. Love. _Soul Food_'s what I listen to daily while braving I-95.

Tropicália + psychedelia = <3
rockthetropics
Bilal makes this one.
rockthetropics
This is the original "Strawberry Letter 23," later covered by the Brothers Johnson. This album, Inspiration Information, is phenomenal.
rockthetropics
From Confrontation, my favorite Bob Marley album at the moment.
rockthetropics
Music for a Friday night.
rockthetropics
Music for a Saturday (early) morning.
rockthetropics
Another underappreciated classic.
rockthetropics
Via @Ashakur. New discovery. Wow. What? http://www.tinymixtapes.com/Bibio,9087

rockthetropics
Zapp & Roger - Computer Love / I Wanna Be Your Man. Kids, take notes: THIS is how you rock a Vocoder.

George Clinton said this was the funkiest song he'd ever heard in his life. http://tinyurl.com/ks6wob

gettin' down Zulu
rockthetropics
Yes.
rockthetropics
I love the grim-hoedown buildup of this song.
rockthetropics
One of the few rock bands worth a damn in recent years. Music for the end of days, in a wonderful, non-prophetic way.
rockthetropics
Another classic.
rockthetropics
Like a companion to The Wire.
rockthetropics
The lyrics to "War" were taken from a speech delivered by Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia before the UN in 1963.
rockthetropics
Possibly my favorite video of all time.
rockthetropics
Listen to the last verse, the GZA's: the wordplay is unbelievable. "unprecedented, opium-scented, dark-tinted..."
Ashakur

This song always makes my morning commutes better...
rockthetropics
Contender for best cover song ever. Leave it to the Flaming Lips to make Madonna sound shiny and new, but really.
rockthetropics
One more, with thanks to @Ashakur, before Friday night gets started. Amazing, eerie video.

Whatever happened to Lo-Down? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lo-Down
rockthetropics
More Lo-Down. Looks like this EP, now out of print, is it. Great dark beats.
rockthetropics
This one goes out to my friend @bardicpearl, who needs to start blipping his fantastic music collection already. Thanks, J.

Can't bring up '80s Manchester without playing The Smiths. This song is it for me.
