enjoy it now



While in Oberlin, Ohio, last week, I made a venture to Cleveland with some great friends to see Tortured Soul, and it turned out to be one of the best live concerts I've ever seen. It wasn't just the fact that a live band was playing so perfectly a music that is traditionally made with synthesizers and drum machines, it was the sound itself-- a soulful, funky, jazzy and emotionally resonant house that forces asses to shake. I highly recommend seeing them play live. Just watch this and you'll understand:



And below, a track of theirs that just screams a perfectly deep mix of Morgan Geist, Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan-- truly uplifting, and a real floor-shaker to boot.

Tortured Soul- Enjoy It Now

More deep stuff tomorrow.
