I'm just getting into Saul Williams; this is cool... </p> http://fenxy.com/music/notes/8976/p/1/#response-95549 Thu, 01 Nov 2007 23:08:23 publicenergy 95549 <p>Nice find - I heard a track of his called List of Demands on the radio last year some time and loved it. $5 is great value if any one track is half as good as that.</p> <p>Cheers. </p> http://fenxy.com/music/notes/8976/p/1/#response-95547 Thu, 01 Nov 2007 22:39:01 peroty 95547 <p>I found Saul Williams when he opened for Nine Inch Nails last year. A spoken word poet and rapper opening for an industrial band. Good mix. I feel in love instantly. Since then I picked up his first two albums I waited anxiously for his newest album to come out. </p> <p>I was excited both for another amazing collection of Saul tracks, but also because Trent Reznor was producing and providing backing vocals on it.</p> <p>Now that I've raved a bit. Why am I telling you all this? Well, because you can pick up "the inevitable rise and liberation of niggytardust!" completely free (as in beer and as in DRM) from <a href="http://niggytardust.com">niggytardust.com</a>. You can choose between a "192Kbps DRM-free LAME encoded MP3s along with a PDF booklet." or pay $5 and choose between the 192Kbps, 320Kbps, or FLAC-encoded version with the PDF booklet as well.</p> <p>I paid my 5 and have been jamming to my high quality DRM-free MP3s all morning. The booklet is beautiful and the music is awesome.</p> <p>I also just found a little nicety as I was going through the tracks on my iPod. They've included the lyrics so when you click through on the iPod you can see all the lyrics. A very nice touch in my opinion.</p> <p>So, even if you've never heard of Saul but like intelligent rap with some beautiful beats behind it, I encourage you to check it out. </p>
