sunday night free ride

Sometimes metafilter has a link to something so incredibly awesome i wonder how i spend hours surfing the web without finding out about it first. 4 Brothers Beats has definitely put my comcast bandwidth limits to the test this weekend.

These dudes are straight uploading entire classic soul albums ripped right from vinyl. Bill Withers? Check. That Skull Snaps ish that people would kill for a copy of just a couple years ago? Check. Buddy Miles albums that I never knew existed? Check. Milt Jackson fusion joints? Check.

Though their taste seems to favor the mid-70's to early 80's funk stylings that I tend to think are a tad overproduced and often miss hitting that deep funk sound that rattles my bones, this site has so many rare, funkified, mackadocious albums all for free (and throwing fresh uploads out at a brisk rate) that it deserves special mention. They also do a great job of giving some background info for every single album.

Y'all need to make use of your modems yo!
