New Music Pt 1 - Prince

The two constant guests on my iPod are currently Prince & Maceo. The artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince has opened the doors to his new website lotusflow3r.com on March 24th. Those who can click and find the clues on the homepage get the privelege to pay 77 dollars for an annual subscripton to the site. What one gets is unclear apart from access to the new three albums lotusflower, MPLsOUNDS and Elixer. The latter a coproduction by the heir and Bria Valente.

Instant favourite is Dreamer from the first album. A classic guitar riff and straight song with clever guitar solos. Ol' School Company from the second album also feels like back in the days... which is not surprising, given the name. Of Bria's songs the title track is my current favourite. All three are very different in style and that is a good thing. If you are in the US, drop by your nearest Target and get all three for just under 12 dollars. Otherwise, pick up your plastic and pay the fee for the three albums and access to exclusive videos on the site.

So much more to say, so little time.. next issue: Maceo.
