Audio Gumbo is a supporter and fan of The Remix on WRFG 89.3 FM, so it was an absolute honor to be asked to provide the soundtrack for the #BrittanyWhitneyTakeover segment from 12-2am. Co-host Brittany brought me on to share some Audio Gumbo flava and feed her listeners some sonic goodness. As always with AG, the goal is to expose, entertain and hip y’all to some dope, funky shit. Listen to the exclusive playlist below and download the full episode of The Remix here!
I’ve been listening to Gwen Bunn for a little under a year. The Decatur, GA native writes, arranges and produces her own music. With lyrics of experience and multi-layered production, her impressive output belies her young age. Gwen has appeared on a couple of tracks from the Foreign Exchange crew, including “Can’t Turn Around,” from Love In Flying Colors. She also put the beat down on Schoolboy Q’s “Collard Greens.” Hip hop, soul, R&B, electro-jazz, Gwen Bunn can pretty much arrange a tune in all genres. Quite frankly, she’s one to look out for in 2014.
Catch up with her 2009 release The Verdict.
R&B and Soul are two of my favorite genres of music. Emotional, vulnerable, honest, danceable and inspiring, a good R&B album will make you feel a connection to each track. A great R&B album will serve as a soundtrack to your love life’s most pivotal experiences. The new album from The Foreign Exchange will tell the story of your love in many hues.
Love In Flying Colors is the fourth album from the duo composed of front man/singer/rapper Phonte and producer Nicolay. If you’re familiar with FE, then you’re well aware of the magic these two (along with other talents of the FE imprint) have conjured up since their inception. I still find myself in awe over their introduction to each other and just how transforming music in the Internet Age can be. The two have created an intense platform for independent artists and continue to demonstrate an organic connectedness to their listeners and supporters. This new album is no exception.
