Sanguine Sunday - (Recession Soul) - ep. 2

Ya' it's that time of the year, one brisk San Francisco morning after winter solstice, the days are just about to get longer but not much brighter. In tune for the Holiday season in the midst of thin wallets and heavy eyelids, Sanguine Sunday mixes up some of what we like to call recession soul. Bringing you that uplifting flavor from the hustle to the bounce, some of those I need monay type of jams, and even the more contemplative what the hell is goin' on with our economy ballads--recession soul covers all it takes to overcome the despair of dusty pockets.

In the spirit of such hard times, Aisha interviews Rayan on the grind, a struggling San Francisco renter and resident of Moss Street about the merits and craft of couch surfing. Meanwhile Zeno mangles 2 for 40 dollar buttered up lobster dinners. Keep on listening for a surprise battle between man and crusty sea beast; shit is sinister.

And Happy Holidays everyone! Moss Street's Sanguine Sunday will see you again in 2009!

Sanguine Sundays

What up blog world. I have been taken a hiatus to get my soul together, but I just felt a pinpoint abyss in my swelling heart without updating this little virtual grab bag of my life. And all the personalities that fit into that, big ups Granny Wesson and Cyrus the Humble. Oh ya, Granny's been holding it down on her new music blog teamed up with Def1, the keskejecoute headmasta. It's on the come up.

Anyway, in the past few months a new persona by the name of Zeno AKA Krimpnasty has been added on to the mix of my schizophrenic psyche. The dynamics of this antogonistic sideplate has not been synthesized in any harmonious way yet. Big ups to D-Rock AKA the illustrious Honey Knuckles, that smooth operator, I have been translating my music interests into the chopped and screwed ways of djing.

So we developed this little concept of an online radio show, eventually a podcast, and perhaps on the distant horizon something more ambitious. We call it Sanguine Sundays--props to Aisha for that sinster double S moniker--and we hope to introduce you to the music we are listening to, the way we listen to it, and the way we scrape it all up each and every Sunday afternoon. Expect the deep monster funk, word power Hiphop, soulclap breaks, fuzzed out psych, throw back soul, new wave, boogie, electro, sprinkled with some rock and let's call everything else incognito.

The first episode is blazingly titled Moss Street Meats. Enjoy.

12-14-08 - As we approach the end of 2008, the Moss Street family decides to do a little bit of winter cleaning of the freezer. Items included a bag labeled "meat", kosher chicken that was once resurrected from the trash can, and mystery Filipino meat from our early 2008 excursion to Manilla Oriental Market. Memorable quote of the evening: "Does this meat have cheese in it?" "No."
