Pharoahe Monch is due a new album at the end of this month and this track made me smile this morning which is an achievement for a Tuesday (Mondays are universally hated but usually pass in a blur - Tuesday is the real Monday of the week). After a seven year hiatus and various label swapping the new album should be quality if 'Push' and this next track is anything to go by, helped along by Optimo and some space echo...
Body Baby [An Optimo (Espacio) Dub]
For all his cosmic ramblings and space travel he was born Herman Poole Blount, one of the first musicians to receive a Minimoog from Bob himself. Many have sampled Sun Ra from Madlib and Yo La Tengo, covered by MC5 and in a way Frank Zappa, too. I'd never heard of him until last week when I heard 'Nuclear War' and had to post it. Prodigiously talented as space travel hasn't been mastered by many...
