First off let me say i’m kicking my own ass for being a few days late on this song. I talk about Sade to friends on the daily but somehow when she finally comes out with something after about 10 years; i’m a bit behind. Nevertheless, Sade has released a new single from her upcoming album that will be released worldwide on February 8th, 2010. The album will be entitled Soldier of Love and the single shares the same name. The single has that original Sade sound mixed with more modern instrumentals and a heavier beat. Sade’s voice is a bit deeper and more sultry in this song; mixed with a rebel music vibe this song makes for a perfect comeback single. Check out the song below and when the album drops PLEASE spend actual $ on it. This is freaking SADE we are talking about here people. Enjoy and add this to your bedroom mix….

This is your Daily 2% – Chilled and Ready to Serve. We will try to bring you one “chill” track every day. This is for when you get home and you are trying to unwind. You reach for that glass of wine or that unlit Black & Mild or maybe you reach for something more herbal. This track is for those times. We will try to bring you at least one a day. We are just your milkmen and I’m here to make a delivery. Chill…..

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse, and David Lynch. A while back we talked a little bit about the project that Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse had worked on. The album they did together is called Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse Present: Dark Night of the Soul but was never officially released due to some conflicts with the record labels. The album was of course released on the internet and there are some places you can stream or download the album. Its a shame that it didn’t get the release and exposure that it deserves because it contains such a great mix of music with amazing production. The track i’m bringing to you today features the vocals of James Mercer David Lynch (director) and its a great little chilled out track with some glitchy background noises. Check out the track and relax because this is a “no heart attack” zone….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Elvis Perkins. I’m a huge fan of folky music if its done right and I have to say I’m a huge fan of any work done by this guy Elvis. One of the main reasons I like his music is because his voice has that “haunting” sound like you would hear from Radiohead or something. The track I’m bringing to you today is called “The Night & The Liquor” and its from his album entitled Ash Wednesday which came out in ‘07. this track is definitely low tempo/chilled-out and the  song really displays that “haunting” thing i’m talking about that seems to chill you out. So sit back and relax…

Girls describes themselves as a gothic/tropical/thrash band. This would describe some of their older releases but wouldn’t describe their new single. The new single is called “Solitude” and it comes from the B-side of their upcoming 10″ entitled Hellhole Ratrace. This single definitely has a 50’s/60’s sound and it sounds great. Check out the single below:

Third Eye Blind IS the 90’s. Period. Or at least the late 90’s. Their song, “Semi-Charmed Life”, will never play out and is still played in movies till this day. And now they are making a come back. Their upcoming album will be entitled Ursa Major and should be released this upcoming August. They have been working on this album for quite a few years but i’m sure they wanted to make sure they get it right for the comeback. The first single from the album will be called “Don’t Believe A Word”. You can listen to the track below:

Sade is my favorite artist/group of all time (2nd place belongs to Outkast). Sade is one of the best selling groups of all time. Their sound is not completely unique but when you have Sade Adu’s raspy and soulful voice; then you have a completely unique sound. It has been 9 years since their last album and many people, including me, have been waiting and waiting to hear ANY news. But now it is official. They have even launched a new updated site (www.sadeusa.com).

The album was suppose to be released November 24, 2009 but since that day was announced; Sony has come out to say the date is unknown. The title of the album is also unknown. None of this matters because we’ve waited 9 years for a new album so I’m sure we can wait a few more months to a year. There have probably been ALOT of children born just because of Sade’s music and I bet even they are going to be excited to hear a new album is coming! Here’s one of my favorite tracks of all time by Sade. Please Enjoy

Sade – Cherish the Day

P.S.
<sarcasm>Most people who were born because of Sade’s music refer to the group not as Sade but as “Genesis” because that was their beginning. Get it? Anyone?</sarcasm>
