"Heartbreaker" - Crazy P

I’ve taken a bit of a hiatus from sharing music as I recover from hand surgery but a global pandemic where most of my loved ones find themselves stuck at home indefinitely seems like the perfect time to share music, so I figured I’d get back to writing about my favorite songs. To get back into my music sharing groove, I figured I’d start with my favorite song of the last year, Heartbreaker, by Crazy P.

This song was released in 2011 but I only discovered it last year while driving around Denver with my ex as we flirted with the idea of getting back together. As we drove around the city and reminisced about all of the good in our relationship, he put on one of his classic playlists that initially made me fall for him. I was instantly reminded of his impeccable taste in music as I whipped out Shazam to save “My God Has a Telephone” by The Flying Stars of Brooklyn NY and “Wildfire” by Meeka Kates but “Heartbreaker” was the track that stole the day.

After a seemingly interminable introduction, the track picks up steam with a classic drum beat and a stable bass line. The lyrics are sad and simple (You're no good, heartbreaker) but I hear depth in the music rather than a sense of melancholy.

I never discussed the song with my ex but I’ll always wonder if he included this song in that playlist intentionally and always be grateful it ended up in there however it did.

"Night Flight" - Franc Moody

Whenever someone asks me if I could choose to live in another decade, I emphatically say no because now is clearly awesome. Look at all this music we have! That said, I could also see myself being incredibly happy in the 70s getting down in Soul Train style so it was only a matter of time before I posted some disco over here.

Franc Moody has been releasing disco jams all year and “Night Flight” is no exception. I can’t wait to hear Franc Moody songs sampled at DJ sets throughout Spain but good things come to those who wait.

Franc Moody defines themselves as a collective with numerous members that go into creating each song but led by the two songwriters Ned and Jon. They describe their sound as “contemporary funk, awash with electronic inspiration, human touches, and throbbing grooves. Like Daft Punk and Jamiroquai before them, they draw from the sounds, styles and techniques of funk, disco and soul while simultaneously threading in electronic influences of the here and now.”

Cuando alguien me pregunta si escogiera vivir en otra década, siempre digo no con entusiasmo porque las cosas ahora son increíbles. Escucha toda la música que tenemos hoy! Sin embargo, creo que pudiera estar súper feliz en los años 70 bailando en el estilo de Soul Train, así que iba a compartir una canción de disco eventualmente.

Franc Moody ha lanzado ricas canciones de disco todo el año y “Night Flight” sigue esta tendencia. No puedo esperar a escuchar unas canciones de ellos tocando por unos djs en España pero las cosas buenas vienen a aquellos que esperan.

Franc Moody se describe como un “colectivo” con muchísimos miembros que forman parte de cada canción pero con dos líderes Ned y Jon. Describen su sonido como “funk contemporáneo con inspiración electrónica, toque humano, y “grooves” palpitantes.
