Yes, I've Been Black But When I Come Back

To begin with, I was a firm supporter of Frankmusik and tried to force his early Frankisum EP release on anybody that crossed my path.

However, the majority of his releases since then have fallen short of that standard, with the exception of his excellent collaboration with Computer Club, 'Losing Streak'. When his debut album, Complete Me, finally surfaced, the magic from his early demos was strangely absent and the whole project seemed a little overcooked.

Earlier today, however, he unleashed his 'Long Live Frankmusik' EP, which you can download free of charge here.

The EP's four tracks remind me of the reasons why I first took to his music so enthusiastically and suggest that album number two might be the one that changes everything:

Frankmusik - Warrior by thebubbleboy

Frankmusik - Our Discovery (Tribute to Daft Punk) by thebubbleboy

This is an older track I stumbled across in my iTunes today. Probably not to everyone's tastes, but I kind of dig it.

Frankmusik - Rehab (Amy Winehouse Cover) by thebubbleboy

Interesting. Its been awhile since I've heard any Frankmusik. Confusion Girl was pretty great.

"...tried to force his early Frankisum EP release on anybody that crossed my path." I remember well!

I would like to see MC Hoey choreograph something to Warrior.
