Aaand we're back. Sorry about the extended commercial break.
It's absolutely gorgeous outside today, let's all vibe out with some sweet tunes.
Star Slinger - Mornin'
Darren Williams (no relation) is Star Slinger, a young British DJ/remixer who has been generating a lot of buzz lately thanks to his feel good music. Apparently, Donald Glover described his music as 'booty LSD'. He definitely makes things drop. He likes to compose mixes while laying in bed or right after he wakes up which is an attitude I can certainly relate to.
I like to picture his process as similar to cooking muffins or something else delicious. He lays down these really fresh beats, and then samples old soul or R&B records and kneads them into the track. Once everything starts to rise together you get the same sense of anticipation and excitement you get right before you take something out of the oven. The whole kitchen smells great and you just know that first bite is going to be heaven. The drop comes and everything melts together perfectly, just in your ears instead of your mouth.
Here's the sweet video to Mornin'

Man, I just can't get over how awesome the weather is today.
