Alright, I just want to get on and tell folks that I'm genuinely excited for this release right here. It's by my dude "E" aka E Da Boss and Myron Glasper with the dudes from the soul investigators. This could be one of the biggest joints this year. I NEVER do these posts but man, this needs to get sweated by "soulstrut dudes".

    I got my copy in the mail today. The Soul Source board was getting in a bit of a state about this 7" calling it the next Kings Go Forth, but I think that's a bit of a stretch.

    I actually ordered this yesterday. The Scandinavian-American Freundschaft keeps yielding winners.

    Brilliant record! Great vocals and beautiful backing from the Soul Investigators.

    I've played this out a couple of times and it went down REALLY well!

    A really strong single, both sides. It even has the deep soul geezers that congregate in my shop kinda shook. I RIDE!

    I think it's better and this should be on some "NPR SHARON JONES" type o' hype. Better than the new PPP I tell ya

    I'm not here to defend 'em just to tell people about a song that I think is worthy of getting attention amongst the midst of music that I think shouldn't be getting hyped-to-death.

    The nuanced and constructive criticism you've added to this thread has been very beneficial.

    This single is great - maybe one of the better Timmion releases. That being said, it is not as good as the first Kings Go Forth track. However, it is unlikely KGF will have another single that explosive either so that's no knock on Myron & E.

    The backing track is hot without a doubt. The vocals, on the other hand, sound lo-fi karaoke recorded in a bedroom-ish. Needs fleet fox reverb.

    I agree, a little spring reverb on the vox would of made a big difference.
    I like the flipside.
    Timmion's a fantastic label.

    part of what I thought was so persuasive about 'Cold Game' was that I had my back turned f*cking around in my DJ box when As*f put it on & I basically made up my mind about liking it before I realized that it was one of those dreaded 'new tracks' - context counts for a lot

    DOESN'T LIKE ITS ELBOWZZZZ!

    Funny, my girl said the exact same thing "it sounds like karaoke...but I like it". I think it's supposed to sound imperfect.

    And that mayer hawthrorne is good, I like.
