Blood Orange - Freetown Sound - VINYL LP
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: Double vinyl LP pressing, includes digital download. For well over a decade, Devonté Hynes has proven himself a virtuoso of versatility, experimenting with almost every conceivable musical genre under a variety of monikers. After moving to New York City in the mid-2000s, Hynes became Blood Orange, plumming the oeuvres of the city's musical legends to create a singular style of urgent, delicate pop music. Freetown Sound, which follows 2011's Coastal Grooves and 2013's breakthrough Cupid Deluxe, builds upon everything Hynes has done as an artist, resulting in the most expansive artistic statement of his career. Drawing from a deep well of techniques and references, the album unspools like a piece of theater, evoking unexpected communions of moods, voices, and eras. Freetown Sound derives it's name from the birthplace of Hynes' father, the capital of Sierra Leone. Thematically, it is profoundly personal and unapologetically political, touching on issues of race, religion, S*x, and sexism over 17 shimmering songs. Each song echoes into another, with leitmotifs carefully stitched throughout, yielding a sound palette that gently recalls elastic funk, slinky R&B, and pure pop, but resisting easy categorization. Album Tracks 1. By Ourselves 2. Augustine 3. Chance 4. Best to You 5. With Him 1. E.V.P 2. Love Ya 3. But You 4. Desiree 1. Hands Up 2. Hadron Collider 3. Squash Squash 4. Juicy 1-4 1.

The Daily Telegraph stated that the album Inchlet's a bit of light into the darkness of Del Rey's moody past works,Inch noting that Inchthere's a sense of heightened drama in punchy Phil Spector style sixties back beats and the way the heavy timpani criss-crosses with echoing digital trap beats, all swathed in a gauzy haze of Shangri Las style girl group harmonies.Inch Album Tracks 1. Love 2. Lust for Life 3. 13 Beaches 4. Cherry 5. White Mustang 1. Summer Bummer 2. Groupie Love 3. In My Feelings 4. Coachella - Woodstock in My Mind 1.
