Harold Battiste Jr. Alone In The Stars (Official Music Video) C+P Lo-Flo Records 2024 Hotney 25 Streams • 2 years ago

LOS ANGELES, CA – Lo-Flo Records presents “Alone in the Stars,” the first of four singles to be released between July and September 2024 featuring the talents of legendary jazz musician and producer Harold Battiste. Jr. Written by prolific composer Jane McNealy, “Alone in the Stars” will be released on July 19, followed by “Florence Nightingale,” “All of You,” and an extended version of “Why Can’t I Have It Too.” These jazz gems, unearthed from McNealy’s extensive archive, hearken back to the 1970s. The video for "Alone in the Stars" will premiere on July 26, with subsequent videos dropping one week after each single’s release on Lo-Flo’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@lo-florecords1599. Listen to the label’s next single on your preferred streaming platform: https://hypeddit.com/m0crbk.

Originally written in 1977 with lyrics, this instrumental version of “Alone in the Stars” was recorded and produced by Battiste and McNealy around the same time. The song opens with McNealy's poignant keyboard melodies intertwined with Battiste's signature saxophone, a laidback bossa nova-like drum beat, and cosmic synth strings. McNealy explains further about the recording process, “I played all the keyboards and he (Battiste) played the saxophone and turned on the drum machine… It was always very laid-back and not a big deal.” The song's dreamlike ambiance is a testament to its title. McNealy poetically elaborates on the song's meaning, “‘Alone in the Stars’ is an ephemeral dream of disassociation and not belonging. This song is very personal because it’s so introspective and indirect. The song is like going through infinity, lost in space and the stars, or a winding river by itself, disappearing into a memory. Or a naked tree in the middle of an arid landscape, reaching into the sky, like Icarus drawn to the burning light of the sun.” Listening to "Alone in the Stars" today, the emotional depth McNealy and Battiste infused into the song decades ago remains palpable.

Harold Battiste, Jr.
A man of many talents and staggering achievements, Harold Battiste, Jr. was born in New Orleans in October 1931. While he began his career as a saxophonist and pianist, his first high-profile collaborations as a producer came with the major success of Sam Cooke’s 1957 track “You Send Me” and the discovery and introduction of New Orleans artist Mac Rebennack as Dr. John. Battiste is well known for his work as a studio arranger and the co-founder of AFO (All for One) Records with Melvin Lastie in 1961. It was notably the first African-American musician-owned label in the American South, achieving immediate success with Barbara George’s massive hit single, “I Know (You Don’t Love Me No More)"—reaching #1 on Billboard’s R&B single chart, and later covered by Fats Domino, Cher, Ike & Tina Turner, Bonnie Raitt, and others. AFO was also home to Ellis Marsalis' debut album, Monkey Puzzle. Moving his operation to Los Angeles, further achievements included contributions on Ike and Tina Turner’s album River Deep, Mountain High, and on Tom Waits’ Blue Valentine. Battiste’s biggest commercial success developed over the course of 15 years working with Sonny and Cher. As their musical director, he arranged hits like “I Got You Babe” and “The Beat Goes On.” This is in addition to his work on their television variety show, which inaugurated Battiste as the first Black musical director on an American TV series.

After 30 years in Los Angeles, Battiste moved back to his home state, where he joined the Jazz Studies faculty at the University of New Orleans, and established the AFO Foundation. Battiste received numerous accolades, including the Beau Arts Award, the Mayor’s Arts Award, and the Governor’s Arts Lifetime Achievement Award. In 1998, his birthday was declared Harold Battiste Day by the City of New Orleans. In 2010, the Historic New Orleans Collection published his autobiography, Unfinished Blues: Memories of a New Orleans Music Man. Harold Battiste, Jr. passed away in June 2015.

OPETH - §1 (Radio Edit - Official Audio) Hotney 4 Streams • 2 years ago

Taken from the album "The Last Will And Testament" (October 11th, 2024)

“I have become quite interested in family, and the idea that blood is not always thicker than water,” Mikael Åkerfeldt explains. “I became interested in how family members can turn on each other. I saw an interview with this guy whose family had all turned against him, over the inheritance, so I wrote a song about that on the last record. The idea stuck with me, and then along came the TV show Succession, and I loved that series. That was in the back of my head too. It felt like an interesting topic that you could twist and turn a little bit.”

Lyrics:
Draped in death, the howl of lore”

Alas, my time is at an end
I have wallowed in self-pity
And I confess to you
As part of (my) final plight

This is the last will and testament of father
(Hear, the last will and testament of father)

(You will find)
A syndicates mass in the waiting room
”Like spiders weave”
And rumors spread fast above ”regal” tombs
Enacted grief

I will here unearth the secrets I’ve been hiding (hiding, hiding)
And guide ”my” children through my trials

Put your trust in my command
I thin the blood. I lift my hand

Draped in death, the howl of lore”

This is the last will and testament of father
(Hear, the last will and testament of father)

F*CK WHAT THEY SAY | King & @MCSTANOFFICIAL666 | Monopoly Moves | Official Music Video Hotney 9 Streams • 2 years ago

"F*CK WHAT THEY SAY" marks King and MC Stan's debut collaboration which arrives as a part of the New Delhi-based artist's latest album "Monopoly Moves''. A braggadocious track where both of them rap about their luxurious lifestyles, success and swagger, it takes a heavier turn in the second half which sees producer Riz Shain turn things upside down with his bold experimentation of pulsating rhythms as King and MC Stan showcase their aggressive and gritty performance which bumps up the chaotic energy of the song to hit the roof.

Lyrics:
Sige ibulong mo lang sakin baby dito ka sa gilid
Kung di kaya pigilan eh wag ipilit
Gusto mo sa Downtown sige
Bigyan yan ng bomba wag bitinen
Main**** kami kahit na tahimik
Gang gang Downtown sa daliri
Tinaas sinigaw paulit ulit parang plaka na sira
Umalma isa tabla lahat sila

Pagka smoke inabot niya yun Bombe
She a playa di malabo parang 4K
Nag ra rap asa lap ko siya okay
Din yung katawan niya pinapak ko all day
Tawagan ay boo at kasama siya lumutang palihim
Ang gulo ng puso di niya ma aning
Sige gamit ko dalhin
Samahan mong gumala bumili ng mamahaling hindi ko susuotin

Di na ko makita samin layo ko na den
Nagkamaling sumubok sakin lalo na aning
Sabing wag ka susundot ayon iwan ka den
Downtown goons muffukas make it rain
Dala ka ng payong kosa kung hindi ka gang
Kahit mag tago ka ng baho lalamuking
Sinong kilala mo jan na ganto kagaling?
Kaninong gang yung sa satingin niyo kaya aking gang

Kinukuha lang yung guap thang
Alam mo na sa dating magiging something
Di mabasag sanay na sa alanganin
Iba yung tama pagka Downtown lumagari
Naiinis sila hindi lang makabawi
Parang UK na yung QC puro mandem
Mga goons naka loop yung kanta namin
Napa ooh pa sila napa god damn
Di mo makukuha

Gago wag ka pumikit kung inggit samin dilat
Sasabay sa alon namin payo ko ay keep up
Dahan dahan nananalo pera nasisipat
Ko na malayuan palang meron kaming meet up
Ayaw niya sakin dati oh n****on she wanna fuck
Text ka muna sakin hoe bawal tawag agad
Tamo naman si Hev Abi oh kakaiba ang swag
Malandi na chikas go gawk gawk gawk

Sige ibulong mo lang sakin baby dito ka sa gilid
Kung di kaya pigilan eh wag ipilit
Gusto mo sa Downtown sige
Bigyan yan ng bomba wag bitinen
Main**** kami kahit na tahimik
Gang gang Downtown sa daliri
Tinaas sinigaw paulit ulit parang plaka na sira
Umalma isa tabla lahat sila

Sige ibulong mo lang sakin baby dito ka sa gilid
Kung di kaya pigilan eh wag ipilit
Gusto mo sa Downtown sige
Bigyan yan ng bomba wag bitinen
Main**** kami kahit na tahimik
Gang gang Downtown sa daliri
Tinaas sinigaw paulit ulit parang plaka na sira
Umalma isa tabla lahat sila

Lyrics:

You said you wanted love
I said the damage done
We both had enough
Is it over, yeah
You wanted regular
I’m not the type to settle up I tried telling you
I’m not that guy, yeah
When it’s time to run it up
I don’t got time to play
You were looking for that puppy love All the fun and games
You really tried to call my bluff
Let you down that must be rough
And now I’m about double up
There’s not much left to say
I’m better off on my own
But you can’t leave me alone
You blowing up my phone
Don’t be showing up to my home
Told you everything I wanted
But to you it’s unknown
Yeah I’m leaving you on hold
So let’s act like we grown
(Yeah)
You said that I would but I don’t need ya (need ya)
Obvious that you could never keep up (keep up)
Done talking baby we both said enough (said enough)
Nothing left between us so I’m deading ya
You said you wanted love
I said the damage done We both had enough
Is it over, yeah
You wanted regular
I’m not the type to settle up I tried telling you
I’m not that guy, yeah

When it’s time to run it up
I don’t got time to play
You were looking for that puppy love All the fun and games
You really tried to call my bluff
Let you down that must be rough
And now I’m about double up
There’s not much left to say
Always in her own way yeah
Shorty whipping that Rav 4
Acting like it’s a Range
Only enter through back doors
Living like she got fame
Used to work as a dancer
Now she clocking in for a wage
You said that I would but I don’t need ya (need ya)
Obvious that you could never keep up (keep up)
Done talking baby we both said enough (said enough)
Nothing left between us so I’m deading ya

You said you wanted love
I said the damage done
We both had enough
Is it over, yeah
You wanted regular
I’m not the type to settle up I tried telling you
I’m not that guy, yeah
When it’s time to run it up
I don’t got time to play
You were looking for that puppy love All the fun and games
You really tried to call my bluff
Let you down that must be rough
And now I’m about double up
There’s not much left to say

M Lyrics:

I feel you
Even though you’re gone
And I don’t mind talking to empty halls

I miss you
Like a loyal dog
Waiting by the door to hear the lock turn

I don’t mind spending time on a lie
But It’s taking all I have to give
‘Cause in my dreams I’m still not free I feel those hands around my neck
Like the truth is killing me

I feel you
Even though you’re gone
And I don’t mind talking to hollow walls

‘Cause I miss you
And it never stops
I hear your voice in all my favorite songs

I don’t mind spending time on a lie
But It’s taking all I have to give ‘
Cause in my dreams I’m still not free I feel those hands around my neck
Like the truth is killing me
And when I wake the thought remains That I won’t ever be the same
And I can see
It’s not a dream
It’s real as anything to me
