    People still buy 7"s? 

    Kidding. But seriously, it's gotta be something unreleased to even get me to think about buying another 7". And that Plain White T's 7" is two songs that have already been released, and both on vinyl.

    Agreed, I don't have the time for 7"s unless there's something new or exclusive on them.

    1. Kacey Musgraves - Golden Hour

    2. Saba - Care for Me

    30 dollars and the lowest shipping option is nearly 8 bucks? Fuck off once again with these prices.

     

    Hopefully this starts to pop up on indie sites at a nicer price point, or at the very least with a media mail option.

    Thinking back on Ixora, I think it was only ever really available via their webstore and was always $30 with close to $10 shipping. That's how I remember it at least, others can confirm or deny.

    OMG! I just happened to check my emails and saw this recommendation. Having purchased both variants of the new Durand Jones LP it was natural for me to check out J.P. and holy smokes I love this! Just ordered a copy of the LP, never heard of him before so thank you so much!

    Wait, both variants of the Durand Jones LP? I've only seen the translucent orange from Colemine, what's the other? Digging that David Hooper, thanks!

    Damn. Thank you for this. There are still good things about VC. This Shirley Davis record on the same label is a steal.

     

    Shirley Davis Edit: This was nine bucks yesterday. Edit Edit: I think I have now purchased every lp on this label. Went a little nuts.

    If that Shirley were still 9 bucks I'd buy it right now too! Thanks for the recommendation!

  6. Also, if you're into Durand, check out J.P. Bimeni and the Black Belts. Been listening to their album Free Me a lot lately, it's really good. Plus, his backstory is pretty insane. This is the description from Rough Trade:

     

    The latest great new soul voice, following Leon Bridges and Durand Jones

    This is the first album from Burundian-born royal family descendant JP Bimeni who’s been based in London since the early 2000s. Musical director Eduardo Martinez and songwriter Marc Ibarz wrote the songs. His backing band are Spanish funk outfit The Black Belts. Horns kick off with a slick smooth James Brown slide of a funk-footed slick as all get out monster. Easy grooves are a rolling tide and a veritable force of soul/nature. Brass stabs accentuate the soul vibes alongside broken-hearted intros, tremeloed guitars and everything you love about the sounds of Stax, Motown and Atlantic’s 1960s output.

    On his debut album Free Me, Burundian-born JP Bimeni astonishes with a voice that recalls Otis Redding in his prime whilst resonating with the soul of Africa. A refugee who’s been living in London since the early 2000s, Bimeni sings songs of love and loss, hope and fear, with a conviction that comes from the extraordinary experiences life has thrown at him.

    A descendant of the Burundian royal family, Bimeni fled Burundi aged 15 during the 1993 civil war. Following three attempts on his life - at school he watched as his schoolmates were murdered, he was then chased by motorcycle militia-men and finally poisoned by doctors in hospital - he was given refugee status and fled to the UK where he’s remained ever since.

    Music has provided the solace that Bimeni has needed to move forward with his life: “If I didn’t have music I don´t know how I would have survived everything”, he says. With it’s classic 60s-sounding Motown and Stax-inspired grooves the album was written by musical director Eduardo Martínez and songwriter Marc Ibarz and Bimeni imbues these tales of love and loss with his tragic experiences making Free Me a deep soul soundtrack to his pained life: “When I sing I feel like I’m cleansing myself: music is a way for me to forget”.
