From the Beautiful Granville Records archives, Tevo Howard Recordings is presenting this 12th digital release as the original recordings of the album Mind Blowin’ Lady by Flo Crew (For Lovers Only). Here included, are 4 demos and 4 early recordings, which are to remain as the staple sound that crafted the label (Beautiful Granville Records). The 4 demo recordings are the original actual first recordings of these individual compositions fed through a simple mastering sequence. All other recordings here are well in the same, but are not the very first recordings, rather edits made circa 2009, and then fed through a simple master.
Tevo Howard’s second Buzzin’ Fly release after his successful debut The Age of Compassion last year. Three tracks that make up the Monument EP are a near perfect example of Howard’s various strengths as a producer, though “Conditional Love” is an undoubted highlight. The track bumps along with a gloriously quirky quality, its warm analogue groove embellished by an array of delightful percussive and rhythmic touches.
This Newave mix was spun by me some time in 2005, and has always been one of my favorites. Pass this one on!

The track itself is to represent the essence of the beautiful place that is called downtown Granville, from its moody energy to the mode and pace of the people who make up this small neck of the woods in Chicago. As the track is titled Beautiful Granville, it is the original recording that sprung to mind and the very track that started the record label’s name, mood and energy.
