Here’s my pay-to-download plug for the week: Funkommunity’s “Chequered Thoughts.” I’ve been waiting for this Australian Duo’s debut release for quite some time, and it’s finally available in the US. This album is full of Future Soul heat, and I whole-heartedly recommend you check it out.

Free Soul Music Saturday for July 7, 2012

Welcome to Free Soul Music Saturday!

Hope you all had a great holiday week. If you missed it, I posted my monthly mixtape this week, which had an independence/freedom theme to it. Some really great indie Soul tracks, and you can stream/download it for free here:

 

In other news, Free Soul Music Saturday now has its own Tumblr. Never miss a posting by following us at http://freesoulmusicsaturday.tumblr.com

I find that the more beat tapes that come out, the harder I’m scrutinizing them. There really is a glut in the beat tape genre, and so more and more releases are simply hitting as ‘average’ to me. Therefore, if you are looking for more beat tapes than made the post, definitely check out my complete listening listing below.

Here is my complete listening list for the week, and here is the Spotify playlist for the week (good for one month).

Thanks to all the artists, producers, DJs, podcasters and music bloggers that bring this music to light!

Free Soul Music Saturday for June 30, 2012

Welcome to Free Soul Music Saturday! We comb through the greatest free independent Soul Music on the internet every week so you don’t have to.

I did this last week, and then another great pay-for-download album hit. This may become a weekly feature. Since I offer so much good free music here, I’ll occasionally plug a paid download that I feel you should support.

This week, Bama Love Soul, an essential source for all things Soul Music, has released their own LP.  I supported these guys on their Kickstarter campaign, and now I’m passing on my whole-hearted recommendation for you to download this wonderful release.
