I released a new ep titled 'stop. waiting' and decided to use this episode to explain a few of the songs and give some back story. You can pick up the project at www.donwill.me and if you're listening to this on Soundcloud or iTunes just click my name or whatever. You're already online so I shouldn't have to explain the internet to you.

In this episode I have a conversation with my friend DJ Low Key about his career as a DJ, the parties that he throws in Denver and his experiences as Tanya Morgan's tour DJ. I also give a few updates on the upcoming Tanya Morgan album, the Lessondary album and the Night Train w/ Wyatt Cenac TV show coming to SeeSo this summer. Drop by www.DJLowKey.com to grab a few of his mixes and stop by www.hipnottrecords.bandcamp.com/album/ahead-of-schedule to pre-order our upcoming album.

For the last month Tanya Morgan has been in Paris and Don takes this episode to reflect on his travels as well as the recent terrorist attacks. He also gives an update on the state of the podcast and plays a bit of new music as well. This episode includes music from Rob Cave Jr's upcoming lp 'Books & Chicks & Brooklyn Shit' which is available for streaming on Spotify and Soundcloud.

The year is creeping to a close and the long awaited Tanya Morgan album is still lingering in the lurch. Does that mean that the duo has been on hiatus? Not at all, it just means that you haven’t heard the songs that they’ve been featured on. Luckily Don has all of these songs and podcast that he can play them on! This episode features music by Jean Grae, Psalm One, The Hood Internet, P. So and many more. There is even an exclusive Denmark Vessey song from his upcoming EP ‘Martin Lucid Dream’.
