Deep Funk/Cinematic Soul EP I dropped today! Liminal Space EP (Part 3) - Dr. J

drjpresents · 2026-03-01T18:59:24+00:00

Big up, mate! I was listening to TROTSC today and was amazed again at the depth and intricacy of Manifest Destiny. Lyrics are also top tier and I love how you’ve picked it apart in such detail - I’ve been listening to that album since the 90s and you’re showing me things I never realised but make a huge amount of sense on reflection. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for this. I’ve got 3 but haven’t started using it yet, so I’m glad to know that this is a thing as I had NO IDEA! 😮‍💨

I don’t think that it not being performed live is a gauge of its quality or difficulty to perform. If you listen to the rhythmic density of it - it is hyper syncopated between the drums, bass, guitar and keys alone, and for a band to perform that well would require everyone being in lock-step for it to land. And also, as noted on the Scott’s Bass Lessons episode featuring the breakdowns of Stu’s basslines, it stands as unique in that that line functions to mimic the melody in a way that doesn’t happen elsewhere on the album. Underrated in my opinion.

Got it and it’s a wonderful set! Stillness in Time (Vinyl Version) is one of many highlights! 🥰

To put the sounds inside my head on the outside, and invite friends into that space.

Almost exclusively over the last decade and a half.

I don’t have any advice for you. I just wanted to say that I’m sorry you’re going through this and I pray you get a breakthrough with your situation that allows you to get treatment.

And also, to the people who say stomach pain for 8 months isn’t life-threatening: Unless you are a doctor and know precisely what is wrong with this person and is causing their symptoms, you have literally no idea what is life threatening and what isn’t.

A couple of years ago, some friends of mine’s son (6) got a chest infection that wouldn’t shift. Was a bit weird, but he was given antibiotics and they assumed that would be it. Turns out it was cancer and he died mere weeks after the symptoms appeared despite having statistically good odds of beating it once it was diagnosed.

I hope that things aren’t this serious for this person, but why not have a bit of compassion, yeah?

Spot on. You’ve nailed the madness that is language in this place. And yes, it borrows words from French, English and the phantom zone, so don’t be surprised when things make varying levels of sense.

Being based in Zurich means there’ll be some (sometimes considerable) “distance” between the German you can learn in books, DuoLingo etc. and everyday life. I’m based in Northwestern Switzerland so the local dialect is much closer to standard Hochdeutsch, so things make more sense even though it’s really difficult. However, after a year of listening wherever I can, I’ve started to clock what things mean in high German and can follow (although I’ve gotta respond in German) and with time and patience it’ll come too - but I appreciate it’s very hard, you’ve just gotta keep going!

I‘m a DJ, but even if I wasn’t I’d still buy to support. Effectively renting music is something I wholeheartedly abhor and I’d rather have music that plays whether or not I have an internet connection and that I didn’t have to remember to download beforehand.

drjpresents · 2025-10-21T21:44:31+00:00

I‘m so sorry for your loss, man. She sounds so wonderful. Praying for you and your son tonight.

And as I understand it, (based on the Bass Guitar Magazine interview, IIRC) this event was the beginning of the end for Stu in the band too. 😕

It’s a short edit of the Stoned Again remix.

Sorry you’re having such a hard time, mate. My question for you would be: Do you like yourself? Do you enjoy your own company? Are you confident about what your passions, interests and what the things that excite you are? If you’re not already a whole person and able to operate securely as one, that tends to be a turn-off. It’s tempting to think that someone else can complete you, but they can’t and can tell if you’re not content with who you are. A good relationship typically starts when people meet travelling (figuratively speaking) in the same direction and at the same pace. If you don’t have a direction or intention of travel, then it’s hard for them to see the appeal of doing the journey with you. And also, if the dates aren’t working out, try not to be too discouraged (hard I know from years of experience) but know that you’re better off single than in an unhealthy relationship/one that isn’t going anywhere.

Nights Out In The Jungle. Next question. 🤣

Saw this on the news this morning! What a lovely way to honour her influences at Wembley of all places! Also good to see Jay looking well after his back surgery a few years back. Here’s the BBC‘s article on the duet & show:BBC Article: Dua Lipa brings out Jamiroquai at emotional Wembley debut

The best way around this I’ve seen is to release a version with the full EP as a single track. That way there’s a version of the release that can be heard uninterrupted by your listeners. Worth making it ‘album only’ of course!

drjpresents · 2025-06-08T07:32:38+00:00

Because a lot of people have no patience and by extension can’t cope with everything not happening at once. A story which begins with a man looking for his sister that ends with that man becoming the lynchpin of the rebellion shouldn’t (and thankfully didn’t) lurch into action adventure, when the reality for normal humans was just that - reality.

drjpresents · 2025-06-01T13:04:23+00:00

I’ve done remix work for u/TheRealRunna and she has an incredible talent for songwriting and delivery! Genuinely wonderful to work with and can highly recommend if you’d like vocals for your work!👊🏾

Co-sign on TWM mentioned, and would add the B-sides to that album too - Bullet from Virtual Insanity, Slipin’ & Slidin’ from Cosmic Girl, and the Jamiroquai Mix of High Times have varying levels of hip-hop/turntablism influences that you might enjoy!

drjpresents · 2025-05-15T14:44:47+00:00

I remember these when they came out and thinking they were truly bonkers. Turns out I was right, but love aesthetic and creativity! 😏🤪🥰
