XLR8R

Like fellow Detroiters J-Dilla, Amp Fiddler and Moodymann, PPP update the Motown soul tradition without it sounding like watered down radio R&B. Something about their lazy drum loops, galactic funk samples and vintage Moog/Rhodes swagger only further highlight Tiobe Lockhart ("Stay With Me") and Georgia's ("Your Day Is Gone") sumptuous vocals. This is honest-to-god real soul music.
