Us & Us: The Present Situation Is Abstract…

A Motion Mixtape for Phuture Frequency

Transmitting from Mount Vernon, New York, USA

Supplying musical therapy by way of vinyl, CD, cassette, and MP3

The world is more than just a little insane right now. This is just my way of supplying some sanity for whoever needs it. I needed to do this one for me, but here’s hoping that it serves you well.

Autobiographical cuts for me on this one include Jef Gilson’s “1973” and Bullion mediating between The Beach Boys and J Dilla on “I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times.” Feel free to holla back regarding which cuts speak to the situations in your life right about now…
