BWLP December 2009 Podcast

December’s issue of Birds Who Like Pomegranate comes in two parts; a 2 disc cd set if you were to download it or find yourself as the lucky recipient of where they might be via gps locator. Yeah, we’re going there, because sometimes you need to get out and get your groove on in the name of seeing lovely places you might not have gone otherwise.
Or, maybe if you’re in East or West Oakland, you might find an autographed set at a bus stop. Play ‘em when you get back to the crib though... there’s no disclaimer on explicit lyrics- b’now!

There’s nothing but good music at our year’s end. Did we get it all? No. Is it all previous unreleased tracks? Pretty much. Some pieces are newer than others- but all the artists are some of our favorites: Finale, Scarlem D and Mr. Blue, Skyzoo, Kissey Asplund, Gwen Bunn, Presto, and 22 others.

Good dj’s tell stories in their mixes and compilations. Sometimes at a club, it’s an instance of instant- the crowd response dictating what gets pumped through the speakers, for when and how long...the ride is a product of place and time. But when it’s prepared for you in advance, like our podcasts, we get an opportunity to tell you a story. Most of the time you might not notice the tempo changes and subject matter. But believe us, it’s been quality crafted for your benefit.

For instance in part one, you might notice a perspective aimed from a season but winds and twists you through a 6 car deluge of mind. Real talk for real times. I’ll cut it out. But we just wanted you to know that for us, music is more than a show and a paper chase. For us, music is expression and the higher pursuits of life’s exactness.

We’ll be replacing Mike Dream’s birthday podcast and the Back to School edition to make room for these in our limited storage space. No worries, we’ll reprise them in the future as time permits.

Thanks for checking in.

December part two broadcast, features still on editor's desk!

Tune In Today.

It's coming...

It’s November 27, 2008 and there are an indefinite amount of questions facing our future. Is it true that Barack Obama has instilled excitement and entitlement in many of us who feel and believe in the change he has espoused all along his pursuit of the United States presidency? Has the consciousness of black America been elevated towards the highest level of governance in this land? And if so, how will the soulful sounds of this country respond in kind? And if a hunt for foreigners with American passports goes down in Mumbai, India on a day like, say, yesterday, how will the soul of a black man respond? Am I speaking of Obama or the next ‘Trane, Bird, Hancock, or Duke? Does foreign policy mired in a historical continuum crusade of Christianity, Zionism, and Muslim clashes rate against the domestic travesty of a hurricane Katrina? Does it? How?

We’re posing a few higher level social questions out there to the hip hop community because our new era has brought the responsibility of change to your doorstep. Electing Obama was a wonderful thing. Now, we’re going to have to have his back in the form of a conscious citizensry ready to move the world forward in positive directions. December heralds the most important Birds Who Like Pomegranate mixed media music magazine to date.

It’s hip hop and news outside your zone- from our neck of the woods in the mixed-use Potter Creek district of Berkeley, California. Until then, I’m b.phlecksi parmella of mAkE nIcE wishing you and yours a FRESH holiday season.
