Day 24:  #mayvinylchallenge :  Impulse Buy!  Had To Have It I gotta say...for the most part, I rarely have a shopping agenda.  Therefore, most records I acquire are impulse buys.  I'll see the album cover, hear a piece of the music in my head and before I know it, I'm walking out of the store with it. The same goes for today's choice, having heard the songs digitally and bugging out when I saw the vinyl in my favorite spot, @parkavecds : 🔺️ 79.5 - Predictions [2018] The debut album from the New York-based ensemble, 79.5 (@79point5) is fronted by vocalist/songwriter/keyboard player Kate Mattison.  A revolving door of collaborators, the album features vocals from Mattison, as well as Nya Parker Brown and Piya Malik, alongside a talented group of musicians.  Their soul-disco psych-labeled sound is N.Y. ready.  The cool dance-funk that emits from this record makes you feel like you have been invited to the coolest of cool N.Y.C. parties...and the night has just begun! In recent years, the band comprises of frontwomen Mattison and singer Lola Adanna, who also are apart of Durand Jones and the Indicators unit as background singers.  Their latest single, "Club Level" is a disco banger, showing off the 79.5 sound, as well as venturing into new landscapes. When I saw this album at my favorite haunt, I grabbed it like it was illegal...had to take it with me.  With tracks like "Facing East", "Sisters Unarmed", and the ultra-indelible "Terrorize My Heart", 79.5's "Predictions" (along with it's AMAZING artwork by Eric Richardson) is an entire vibe!  I'm definitely along for the ride!
