JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound, "75 Years of Art Sex"

Every day, Magnifier selects key tracks from the most innovative and exciting artists for our Song of the Day. All the music on Magnifier can be added to your Music Beta library for free.

When JC Brooks opens up with his raspy, heavyhearted yowl he channels classic R&B icons without drifting into copycat nostalgia and finds the sweet spot that eludes so many other neo-soul prospectors. His talent is amplified via spare arrangements from backing band The Uptown Sound, whose raw electric guitar and bass thump deliver the tough-guy strut of Some Girls-era Rolling Stones. Even so, its Brooks’ gutsy delivery that stays at center stage, making “75 Years of Art Sex” a sultry introduction to Chicago’s rawest R&B upstarts.-- Nate Cavalieri

This song reminds of the nights I spent in a smoky club listening to little known acts. I don't know if the song is that good or if I like it because of the memories it evokes. Regardless, I like it.
