Electro R&B Archives - The Earology Dept.

Jade Elizabeth Pybus bka as Py has been my “go to” chanteuse of choice as of late. And really it’s impossibly difficult not to like her, not that I’m trying “to not like her” either. You may have noticed that I keep posting songs on which Py appears. And you can expect more of the same in the future, hopefully to no one’s chagrin. Basically, my ears do somersaults at the mere mention of her name, and I’m utterly and completely enthralled with the way she delivers her musical voice; her vocal range is caught somewhere in-between the whispery voice of an angel and the last drop of a very good red vine on the devil’s tongue. Badilicious. Listen to the song “Whispers” (Ft. iO) or get totally seduced by her contribution to the song “Moments” taken from When You’re Gone EP by Lapalux. Rock them both with the lights down low, it’ll be total afterglow. Peace. Continue reading “Py & iO // Whispers”

These guys weren’t even on my radar until my cuz Quinci tapped my shoulder. Just goes to show your ears can’t be everywhere all the time. But really that is the spirit of Mitten Mouth Music. Sharing. ‘Cause sharing is caring. But on the real, the best suggestions in my opinion are from the people who know you best. Ok, let’s talk about Cherub. This is the last sound you’d expect to hear coming out of Nashville, TN home of the Grand Old Opry.

But Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber have built quite the hipster Frankenstein of sound below the Mason-Dixon Line. This is 100% pure future hi-octane soul music. The Man of the Hour EP will bathe your brain in a purple haze and give you the munchies for a warm body next to yours. Regardless of the inevitable Passion Pit and MGMT references these guys are on some next level shit. Cherub is mining the Electro-Funkadelic-Prince Roger Nelson-Neo-Soul vibe.

And boy have hit the mother-lode. With songs like “Love You Right”, “Disco Inferno”, “Goodbye Winter“ and the seductive closing title track “Man of the Hour” Cherub is clearly on the some lover boy thematics. The duo known as Cherub are beyond cool. They’ve transcended way up into the stratosphere where tarnished angels wear wicked grins and smoke blunts of unadulterated rainbows. So, take off your cool and cozy up to Cherub. Listen and download the EP below. Peace. Continue reading “cherub // man of the hour lp”
