Here are a few links that I"ve been forgetting to post here.

The first two links are some classic hip hop mixes. Very Short List posted up Classic Material, a site with some quality and creative mixes. While there are straight up mixes, most of them have themes including one that goes chronologically through the early hits of hip hop.
My friend Darcy C. hooked me up with the other link, which is to We Funk, a Montreal radio mix show. Always a good listen.

As for the "Music Future" referenced in the title, that could be Spotify, a music service that is all the rage overseas. It'll probably face a tough launch since so many people are in love with Pandora but I've heard nothing but good things about this service and that it could quickly become the online music destination for us yankees.

As for this morning's music, I was trying to find a way to embed the opening scene of Belly, which I was thinking about randomly yesterday, but nobody allows embedding on their youtube videos so the best I could do is the Soul II Soul song that plays during it.
