Houmous by Igorrr keeps that energy going, dig into this guy if you like the blend of instrumentation and breakbeats.
Chilling out with She's A Big Boy - Mcbaise. Psychadelic groove about pegging, what's not to like?
And let's bring it home with Buffalo Springfield's For What It's Worth. Protest music is a little depressing because, no matter how old it is, it's always relevant. Important to keep that sentiment around all the same.

Letting one group have a monopoly on violence leads to the stripping of rights and civil liberties.

Comment on Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants had housing. in ~life
Soggy Link ParentSure, and I'd rather keep giving those people money for the rest of their life. They cost the system money regardless, they might as well be happier and healthier. Net gain for society.Sure, and I'd rather keep giving those people money for the rest of their life. They cost the system money regardless, they might as well be happier and healthier.

(Edit to clarify. KNOWER's most recent album KNOWER FOREVER is probably a better example of jazz/funk/pop overall from Louis than his upcoming release, their older work is much more electronic generally. "Overtime" is worth a listen for that vibe though. It's all good stuff, just not all the same genre.)

They did reply to someone else and I don't think their argument is particularly convincing, but others have chimed in so I'm leaving that alone.

Attacking rationalism as somehow undesirable of a repository of knowledge makes me suspect that you're mad that your edits in favor of ear candling or whatever keep getting reverted.
Louis Cole is a genius, I'm fucking stoked for his new album next month.
