LMG’s Soul Eclectics – Autumn Mix
Autumn is a moody time of year, calmer with a bit of a chill in the air. The music reflecting the season’s change from summer tends to be mellower and relaxed, less aggressive to the ear. While some of this new mix represents the melancholic overtones of this time of year, with its shorter days of sun, there’s a lot about love and the joys of being in love in this cuddle buddy weather. So, in honor of cuffing season, we’ve a mix as moody and amber as the glow of the fall months themselves. Leaning heavier on piano ballads, jazz, the blues, smooth R&B, and more retro sounds, this is a departure from our usual embrace of acid jazz, soulful house, and hip-hop soul sounds. As with all Soul Eclectics’ shows, we push against the boundaries of what is “soulful,” even as much here is traditional. Hope you enjoy.
