I posted the video for Dat Ass a while back and since then Complex thinks they have tracked Earl to Samoa. Tyler, The Creator denied this on his Twitter account but who knows, Complex does have a compelling case, particularly with those photos. Either way, I can’t wait for EARL to get back with the group because he seems to be talent #2 right behind Tyler.

In related news… My friend from the L.A. clothing company 7Lightningbolt and I have teamed up to bring you a couple of shirts. I wanted a SWAG shirt, couldn’t find one so I asked him to make them.

This song and album is insane. If you didn’t hear “Glass Jar” when they first dropped it I recommend seeking it out. The album mixes so many styles it’s almost impossible to put into a catergory. “Experimental” is the only word that seems to fit. I had to go to my stereo the other day because I was stumped as to what was shuffling out of my speakers. Turns out it was “Romance Layers” which sounds completely from another time.

Kind of surprised they put out a video for this track. As much as I love this album this is maybe my least favorite track. It’s fine but there are so many great tracks I’m not sure why they’re digging this deep.

I think the album is one of the best of the past five years. I spent so much time, so many warm nights listening to this while bbq’ing and drinking out back. I’m glad the album has held up so well; I’ve not tired of it at all and am so looking forward to repeating those things again this year. If Summer ever arrives.

Back in October I was working on a mix that I never ended up finishing. It was called Raw Mix and featured this track as well as Games, Gala Drop, Neon Canyon, MatthewDavid and a handful of others. This track had expired me to search for french pornos to slice sex sounds and ‘romantic’ speak from. I searched and searched but I had a hard time finding anything French except for that guy from the cooking show on Bravo (not Top Chef) giving anal to some old lady and they weren’t speaking at all.

So, it never happened but I love this track and how well it mimicks The Avalanches and incorporates sex sounds.

Good stuff.
