Hiatus Kaiyote, "Tawk Tomahawk" Free Download


HIATUS KAIYOTE

Wax Poetics presents Tawk Takeout: Tawk Tomahawk Remixed

Hiatus Kaiyote are an independent future soul group based in Melbourne.  Formed in mid-2011, TAWK TOMAHAWK is their debut release.  Sharing from the Wax Poetics blog:

"When Queen of Just About Everything, Ms. Erykah Badu, delivers knowledge, you open yourself to receive. Which is why when she devoted 140 characters or less to Australian band Hiatus Kaiyote—her exact words were “Okay. I’m done. In love,”—it confirmed our strong sense that these guys were exceptionally special.
In a country where balls-to-the-floor AC/DC rock boasts a much fuller history than soulfully futuristic stylings, this seven-piece from the east coast city of Melbourne is an anomaly. Hiatus Kaiyote’s uniqueness comes not only from their surroundings, but also their capacity for a sound rich in its understanding of soul, R&B, and jazz.
Lead singer/songwriter Nai Palm was raised on the sincerity of artists like Wonder and Franklin, which she funnels into one of the most naturally arresting voices we’ve heard (check this cover of “My Cherie Amor” from her NYC debut over the weekend). Her current U.S. trip as ambassador for the band has gained Hiatus Kaiyote a luminary list of new fans and friends including the Roots, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Jean Grae, Pharoahe Monch, the Brainfeeder crew, and more. 
Word of Hiatus Kaiyote has found its way to the U.K. as well. Right now the band is enjoying the attention of Gilles Peterson, who selected their self-released EP Tawk Tomahawk as his Album of the Week. The timing has worked well for us too, as Wax Poetics cordially presents the accompanying remix album, Tawk Takeout."

Live365.com Down, Pinterest Down--is Mercury Retrograde?

We interrupt the regularly scheduled programming for buffering, buffering, buffering.  That is what is going on at live365.com this morning for my station and I presume all of the thousands of other stations hosted there.  Okay, that has happened before, so I will just pin something on Pinterest.  Uh-oh, cannot pin, cannot like, and definitely cannot repin this morning.  Pinterest is broken.

What to do?  I have been so detached from the outcome of all of my forays into social networking, curating, sharing and connecting on the Internet.  AOL web pages taught me 10 years ago that one cannot be attached to ANYTHING on the Internet.  It will be here now and after that poof.  I say, if you cannot stream it or pin it, be it!  That's right "BE" the love that our Creator meant us to be.

Okay, so the alternative is do my work.  LOL -- That lasted a few minutes, and now am back writing to you.

"Pinterest is down, but we won't frown,
Can still look at our own boards and move them around!
Station still buffering and Pins won't pin
So listening to promos to recommend
IodaPromonet is the quality spot
Checking New and Upcoming -- that means a lot."  djGoddessa
