On occasion it behooves us all to take a trip back to the formative years of funk, soul and RnB. It’s alright. Today is one of those days.
Peppermint Harris alone might not keep you warm (if it’s even cold where you live), but dancing to his “Wait Until it Happens to You” will.

The always lovable Mayer Hawthorne stopped by San Francisco’s Groove Merchant to look through the stacks to get his vinyl fix. We get a glimpse of the man behind the glasses, and he likens record-hunting to an “addiction like any other drug” and he reveals what he scouts for, how he got his first DJ name (Haircut) as a little kid, and his personal theme song.

Jesse Boykins III- Itis (Official Music Video) from Jesse Boykins III on Vimeo.
“Itis” is a dope record by itself. it’s great to see it get a slick music video that does justice to the source material’s mood. Jesse’s been working hard on the indie scene for awhile now. Moreover, the R&B and Soul markets are wide open for fresh talent. It’ll be interesting to see if Boykins will become the next internet success story in 2010.
