Next month will see the release of Something About April III, Adrian Younge's final installment of his "psychedelic soul trilogy with a Brazilian twist." Right now we can check out a new single from the album: "Nós Somos As Estrelas." The new single is a vocal harmony focused track that might perfectly encapsulate what psychedelic soul is. It's impossibly smooth with just the hint of 1960's groove. It truly sounds like a lost film score from sixty years ago in the best possible way. Back in the late 90's my college radio station started getting lost and rediscovered albums from the 60's in as rereleases, and that's what "Nós Somos As Estrelas" reminds me of. Adrian Younge has done an immaculate job of recreating that sound.
You can listen to "Nós Somos As Estrelas" below. Something About April III is due out April 18 on Linear Labs. For more on Adrian Younge, check out the artist on Instagram.
