    Javelin - Off My Mind

    Not sure why I haven’t covered Javelin yet, but Jimmy from Head Underwater put their song “We Ah Wi” on his awesome mixtape Kibbles this week and it inspired me to post up a song too. The warm streak in SF lately has led to a lot of playings of No Mas. It’s easy to get sucked into the wild, old school hip hop/disco-based, sample-laced beats because they have the proper mixture of familiar and fresh. I decided to feature “Off My Mind,” because like “We Ah Wi,” I think it reveals more about Javelin’s self-crafted style apart from the old school homages. Needless to say, this duo knows how to get a party going - and lucky for you San Franciscans, The Rickshaw Stop is hosting them tomorrow night with Tussle and Bronze. Get out their and dance!
