Slo Get Up 15 - The Butterfly Collection

The Slo Get Up by Wyatt Closs

Could say I've carefully collected this one for a while as the majority of tracks are all connected with Butterflies specifically. Many genres -- jazz, neo soul, dance -- but were all part of my library, gently landing in it over the years. Bookended by two classics -- Jimi Hendrix with "Little Wings" and Herbie Hancock's jazz opus "Butterfly", what's in between is Michael Jackson, Corinne Bailey Rae, Swing Out Sister, Jamiroquai, Digable Planets, Towa Tei, Big Brooklyn Red, Abbey Lincoln and more. And the beautiful positive house track "Butterfly(You Send Me) by the always soulful and percussive Masters at Work. The art is by friend and 'artivist' Favianna Rodriguez and it works well not only because of the Butterfly motif but also due to her dope use of it as a metaphor on the struggle for immigration reform. Something that will also be rising this season. Which I'll tweet about from time to time @wyclo. Up jumps spring.
