Blind I For The Lover In You

I appreciate the love and feedback on Good Morning. When it comes to these compilations, I try to pick songs that are bit off the radar or lost in the throwback vault so you don’t get a slew of Mp3s that you already play everyday. I want it to be a grab bag of sorts, unpredictable and refreshing. Clearly I have quite the library so I hit you as I see fit from here on out! Here’s a bevy of tunes for the lover in you since it’s February. I have a soul comp en route for the end of the month with nothing but pure R&B, but I mixed this up a bit. What kind of lover are you? Street? Soul? Sultry? Bet you can’t guess mine.

*And BTW I recently discovered Apollo Nove (see “Inexplicata” in Sultry) and dammit if that doesn’t sound like love what does? Makes me want to attempt a slow samba, though I’d be so black with it. The layers of the harp, organ and background vocals are orgasmic. I can visualize myself on a cloud with a lover. I’m such a hippie.

Enjoy your Hearts Day. You could never be lonely cus Maiya Loves You!
XOXO

Good Morning…

Welp folks. I’ve talked long enough about making a compilation. And I know you BlindI heads are already up on the latest and greatest thanks to $ and NO. So where do I come into the equation? I am a moody girl. And not moody like bitchy, but when I am in a groove I am knee-deep in it. So this Good Morning post was inspired by my trip to Rio de Janeiro.

Every morning I went outside to the beach and I listened to a lot of these songs. It was me, the beach chair, a caipirinha and this range of songs. I felt calm. Soothed. Serene. Pleasant. Not on vacay? Fear not, it’s also a good set of tunes to just lie in your bed to. Or get ready for work. Or be hung-over. Or take a walk with someone dope. Or hit an L in good company. Whatever moves you. So sit back, kick your shoes off, and mellow out with me. You’re in my brain at like 7 am in Ipanema. Or my subway ride to work in NY. Welcome.
