This week we celebrate the posthumous Circles album by Mac Miller who was a big KCRW fan.  Circles finds the rapper transition into his Randy Newman (and sadly final) phase of journey with assistance from Jon Brion. Elsewhere Amsterdam’s Full Crate has a new single featuring Naomi Sharon plus Chassol out of Paris, Monsune, BK’s Theophilus London, Common gets remixed by Tom Misch and a new heater from Gothenberg’s sir WAS. We also highlight the sounds and connections between the recent passing of Jimmy Heath and NAS + DJ SHADOW. Enjoy!

I first heard “This Charming Mixtape” and wondered “Who is this rapping over these dance beats?”.  I loved it. Then I get a call from TL’s management saying “We are in Venice, where you at”.  Just like that, TL and I began talking about about his direction and inspiration as an artist. I am embarrassed to watch this video at times knowing I mispronounced his name and still fresh in my understanding of this artist.  2 years later he collaborates with Stussy, tours the world and dines with Jay Z and hangs with Kanye.  This video documents the dreams of an artist who dreamt bit in 2010 and enjoying the fruits of his labor in 2012.  Enjoy!
