First Spin, Quiet Bounce

Quiet Bounce: 'Gloria' Is 'Dynamite'

I have yet to see the movie Black Dynamite, but I have fallen head over platforms in love with the music from the film, specifically the Black Dynamite score. It's as if Adrian Younge recorded this in a time capsule; it's incredible how authentic the music sounds. My favorite song on the score is "Gloria (Zodiac Letters)," which is all Afro Sheen and Nag Champa, Jean Nate and Brut. Younge dazzles on the production while singer Toni Scruggs mesmerizes with her vocals. Her voice gets into you like a deep tissue massage. Turn the lights off, turn your lava lamp on, press play below and feel the vibe. Can you dig it?
