I cant see it on general release here in the UK yet. Is it available.
Another one to check for forward looking soul with a tech_y edge is Spacek
-
Vintage Hi Tech. Give it some time and after a few listens it begins to
unfold.

Has anyone heard this yet?
World Wide Underground is the closest thing to a Moodymann album on a
major,
all jazzy grooves, quite avant garde. The single Danger is not at all
representative (I actually thought it was very Neptunes like, a bit
derivative for Ms Badu). It's really brave putting this out. The sleeve
notes suggest it's a reaction to the monotony of urban radio. Badu modelled
it on a mixtape. I always loved the songs on Baduizm - there ain't nothing
wrong with great songs - and some of the neo-soul albums I've bought have
relied on the groove more than songs and they've not been especially
memorable but like D'Angelo's layered Voodoo this really works. This takes
Mama's Gun a step further. I think a lot of 313 heads would really dig
this!
