2day, I’m going 2 talk 2U about my favorite song on the album, “Pheromone”.
First off, what are pheromones? Simple - they are chemicals released during specific times to trigger a physical response in another creature.
4 my contribution, we're going to look at a song I consider flawless in every form.
COMPUTER BLUE!

Computer Blue is where Early 80's Minneapolis grinding rock guitars, synths and LinnDrums meet the future cybernetic sexual dystopian landscape of Blade Runner for one of Prince's most powerful grooves.
So, as most folks will know by now, the album leaked yesterday. I think folks are still digesting it, and rightly so, but here's a few initial thoughts.
The remastered album sounds great. I'd like to test it on a variety of systems but on my studio monitors it's very evenly done and exactly what I expected to hear. Finally I can be comfortable dropping album tracks into a live DJ set without relying on fanmade remasters!

Let's just be clear about this disgrace of a so called "documentary" about #MichaelJackson that they want to show @sundancefest (Thread)
It's based on the lies of two men whose cases were already *thrown out* of court. They lied under oath and submitted forged "evidence".
Wade Robson is a serial liar who was shopping for a book deal before he even filed his fraudulent case and had hired a literary agent. Does that sound like something you'd do if you truly were a victim of something like that?
