Schon ewig steht Arbeiterführer Ernst Thälmann mit gestreckter Faust in seinem Park und wartet auf Ecke Prenz. Und ihre Platte. Seit Mitte der 00er Jahre, als sich die beiden Berliner in Prenzlauer Berg das erste Mal trafen, wartet er nun schon. Und jetzt, jetzt sind Breaque und V.Raeter tatsächlich fertig. Na, endlich. Genauer gesagt: unendlich. Facettenreich.Ecke Prenz sind Genre-Millionäre, nicht nur beim Auflegen im Club, sondern auch auf ihrem Produzenten-Debut. Zurück zur Ecke Prenzlauer Allee, dort wo er liegt, der Ernst-Thälmann-Park. Die Plattenbau-Parkanlage aus den 80ern wurde für die beiden Ankerpunkt und Symbol des gemeinsamen Schaffens. Dessen Ergebnis jetzt dieses musikalische Denkmal ist, dass sie dem Park und sich selbst setzen. Bums. Dieses Album ist eine herzliche Einladung zum tagträumen, rapraven und nachts spazieren. Am besten gleichzeitig. Warum nicht auch barfuß. „Nachts im Thälmann Park“ fragt sich nicht, ob es jetzt TripHop, HipHop, BoomBap, FutureBass, Ambient, Uneasy Listening, Downbeat, Uptempo oder vielleicht sogar Big Beat ist. Ecke Prenz sind transgenre im HipHop-Kosmos unterwegs. Ihre Platte hat nicht die geringste Ahnung, wie spät es ist, welches Jahr gerade ist oder in welchem Universum es sich gerade befindet. Jedem einzelnen Song ist das auf seine Weise völlig wurst. Dieses Album versucht nicht krampfhaft irgendeinen kurzweiligen Zeitgeist einzufangen. Stattdessen sind die Songs über Jahre ungezwungen zu einer ganz eigenen Definition einer Langspielplatte herangereift. Eine Spielmichsehrlangplatte. Spätestens nach dem Mix- &Mastering-Besuch bei Dexter, war klar: Dieses Album ist für immer. Für immer nachts im Thälmann Park.Achso: Ecke Prenz, das sind die DJ’s & Produzenten Breaque und V.Raeter. Die beiden aus dem Ecke Prenz Radio. Der eine DJ bei Audio88 & Yassin. Der andere DJ von Fatoni. Ein DJ Duo, dass sich von ihrem Rapmusik-Ursprung völlig befreit durch sämtliche Clubmusik tanzt.

Am 20. Juli veröffentlicht digitalluc sein Label-Debüt bei der Mainzer Untergrund-Institution Sichtexot. Die EP „blu dot.“ ist eine intime Momentaufnahme des Wahlberliner Produzenten, der auf zehn Titeln (und vier Skits) einen Soundtrack für die Nacht produziert hat. Für „blu dot.“ arbeitete der 26-jährige mit Wegbegleitern wie Hubert Daviz, Philanthrope, Tufu und B-Side an den Produktionen. Auch Sichtexot-Gründer Anthony Drawn ist auf zwei Songs mit seinen unverkennbaren Saxofon-Solos vertreten. Dazu steuert Man-Of-Booom-MC Teknical Development den einzigen, aber perfekt integrierten Rap-Part bei.Die Platte ist in einer Phase der intensiven Konfrontation mit der eigenen Biografie entstanden. Sie verarbeitet schmerzhafte Erfahrungen und setzt sich mit dem Tod auseinander. Düster illustriert wird diese Selbsttherapie durch die Skits, die das letzte Interview von Mobb-Deep-Legende Prodigy zitieren: „It is what it is, I just need to own who I am.“Nach diesem Credo besinnt sich digitalluc auf seine Stärken: die blinde Sensibilität für tiefe Melodien und Atmosphäre, detailverliebtes Sounddesign und verspielte Drum-Programmierung. Sie machen „blu dot.“ zu einem herausragenden Beispiel für Instrumental-Musik, die mehr ist als belanglose Hintergrundmusik.Zwischen Lo-Fi-Ästhetik und fein gesetzten Jazz-Akkorden erzählt „blue dot.“ eine Geschichte, die in jedem Moment, über jeden Loop, zwingend und authentisch ist. Mit dem Release demonstriert digitalluc seine unverkennbare und eigenständige Klangidentität, die er, wie kaum ein anderer Beatmaker, über die letzten Jahre entwickelt hat.Nachdem digitalluc zuletzt die digitale Sammlung „re:ups“ und zuvor sein Debüt „wait wait.“ sowie die „Moonsessions“ (beide 2015) veröffentlichte, ist „blu dot.“ nun nur der Startschuss für einen neuen Schaffenszyklus. Am Debütalbum, das ebenfalls bei Sichtexot erscheinen wird, fehlen nur noch Details – und auch darüber hinaus war digitalluc umtriebig und hat in seinem Homestudio auch mit unerwarteten Sounds experimentiert.

Es ist eigentlich nicht so, als müsste man die Waxolutionists noch irgendwem erklären. Wenn man es trotzdem tun müsste, klänge das vielleicht so: klassisches Sampling, Turntablism, ein Schuss Elektronik. Das Ganze angereichert mit extremen Skills und viel Liebe für HipHop. Mit Wien als Homebase und demoffenen Blick in die Welt. Und das seit mittlerweile fast 20 Jahren.Ein paar Eckdaten der Waxos-Biographie: Gegründet 1997 von The Bionic Kid, DJ Zuzee & Dj Buzz. Der mittlerweile fast legendären Debüt-12" „Nachtschattengewächs“ (feat. Manuva) aus dem Jahr 1999 folgten vier reguläre Alben („The Smart Blip Experience“, 1999; „Plastic People“, 2002; „Counterfight“, 2004; „We Paint Colors“, 2009) und eine Remix-Platte („RE:WAX“, 2003). Das Trio arbeite mit DJ Vadim, den Sofa Surfers oder Lyric L zusammen und auf seine Platten ein und machte Remixes für Größen wie André Heller oder Ray Cokes.Nach über 6 Jahren Kreativpause starteten die Drei im Juni 2014 die Arbeiten an ihrem sechsten Longplayer „The Big Butter Part 1“. Eine Reise durch zwei Jahrzehnte Bandhistorie und einen Ausblick in die Zukunft. Scratches, Wordcuts, Instrumental-Banger, Rare-Groove-Nummern, egal ob klassisch gesampelt, komplett handgemacht oder irgendwas dazwischen. Als Gäste wirken auf dem Album die Tiroler Chrisfader & Testa und Mirko Machine mit.„Zum 20-Jahre-Jubiläum hin war's einfach wieder an der Zeit, etwas zu machen. Ohne jeglichen Druck oder Vorgaben. Es hat uns einfach in den Fingern gejuckt.“ So sagt es die Band selbst. Programmatisch dafürbilden die Tracks „Back in the Basement“ und „Puttin' Shit Down“ die sprichtwörtliche Klammer des Albums.Das ist eben das, was die Waxos tun. Von gelassen-sexy bis clubbig kommt „The Big Butter“ mit 22 Nummern, die zeigen, warum das Trio der Welt gefehlt hat.

Das Album »Paternoster« von der gleichnamigen österreichischen Psych-Rock-Band von 1972 ist ein erklärter heiliger Gral der weltweiten Plattensammler-Elite.

Nun haben sich eine Handvoll deutsche und österreichische HipHop-Produzenten des Wiener Meisterwerks angenommen. Herausgekommen sind acht Instrumentals zwischen klassischem Boombap, progressiven Trap-Anleihen, Brainfeeder-Beat-Geklapper, spirituellen Afro-House-Grooves und psychedelischem Krautrock-Spirit. Remixe und Versionen kommen von Afromaniac, Dexter, Ghanaian Stallion, Kabuki, Brenk Sinatra, B-Side, Disco Rigido (Twit One & Lorenzo Merluzzo) und Badan. Die Platte erscheint auf Heart Working Class / HHV und ist limitiert auf 300 Stück.

Brand new project by Didaflo in which he made everything in the concept of collage, going through the whole process of re-using lots of materials to create new textures and give new life to obscure and for most forgotten bits of the American Pop culture. This is the 2nd album by Didaflo but his first ever on vinyl! This album is a real piece of art that comes in a very exclusive collector gatefolder edition with many printed parts done by the ever mystic man himself Sir Froderick. We like to think of this one as an extra special release as it exhibit the art of Sir Froderick like never before. Once opened the album takes you to his universe and is pretty much like entering a fresh dimension of beats, samples & visual graphics.

“Endtroducing...” is the debut studio album by American music producer DJ Shadow, released on September 1996 by the British independent record label Mo' Wax Recordings. The album is known for being composed almost entirely of sampled content, most of which originated from various vinyl records obtained by DJ Shadow during trips to record shops. “Endtroducing...” was produced by Shadow in the span of two years using minimal amounts of equipment, most notably the Akai MPC60 sampler. In creating the album's overall atmosphere, he strived to capture the downbeat nature of his previous releases for the Mo' Wax label. The album's content features both moody, slow-paced tracks and upbeat jams reminiscent of DJ Shadow's early hip hop influences.In the United Kingdom, where DJ Shadow had already established himself as a rising act, “Endtroducing...” was released to positive reception. It reached the top twenty of the UK Albums Chart and was later certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Mo' Wax issued four singles to promote the album. However, it would take considerably longer “Endtroducing...” to find success in the United States. Upon completing promotion of the album and returning to his hometown of Davis, California, DJ Shadow primarily devoted his time to creating new music. After this period, significant interest in “Endtroducing...” began to build in the American music press, and the album later peaked at number 37 on the American Billboard Top Heatseekers chart.“Endtroducing...” received universal acclaim from critics, who praised DJ Shadow's approach to sampling and the beats he created from samples. It ranked highly on various year-end lists of the best albums of 1996. The album is considered to be a landmark work in the instrumental hip hop movement, with DJ Shadow's innovative sampling techniques and arrangements influencing other producers to create similar sample-based works. “Endtroducing...” has since appeared in several publications' lists of the decade's greatest albums.

Berlin Zoo’s debut LP "Super Bad Disco" is the result of a chance encounter between three Danish beatheads (I Kicked A Cloud Once, Shatter Hands, and Fou Fou) in the German capital. The record is steeped in Soul and Jazz, with an uncanny view to both the past and future of instrumental Hip Hop, and a deliciously obscure sample selection. Straight killer, no filler, carefully sequenced and arranged. Highly recommended!

Limitierte Auflage von 300 Stück auf schwarzem Vinyl!Erwachsenwerden. Es bedeutet Verantwortung zu übernehmen, für sich selbst und für andere. Es bedeutet so manchen Traum aufzugeben und den Kompromiss der gesellschaftlichen Realität zu akzeptieren. Einfädeln und eingliedern. Cap Kendricks kennt den Hustle, den der Spagat zwischen Monatsmiete und Muckemachen erfordert. Trotzdem oder gerade deshalb zeigt er sich auf der Instrumental EP "Don’t Grow Up" neugierig und experimentierfreudig. Die acht Anspielstationen zeugen von einer spielerischen Begeisterung für Samples, Drumpatterns und Basslines. "Don’t Grow Up" passt in keine Hip-Hop-Subgenre-Schublade. Boom Bap, Trap und Trip-Hop Elemente prägen ein Soundbild, das frisch und unvoreingenommen wirkt.Repräsentativ für die EP ist ausgerechnet der Bonustrack „Push“. Hier gelingt der Brückenschlag vom trappigen 2016er Instrumental zu Vocalsamples von Grandmaster Flashs „The Message“ aus den frühen 80er Jahren. Dieses unfassbare Brett von Remix ist, wie der Rest von Don’t Grow Up, eine Liebeserklärung an eine Jugendkultur, die nie erwachsen werden wollte.„Daydream“ wirkt wie ein unklarer Blick auf die Zukunft. Bassline und die Hats klingen hier verschwommen, wie die gemurmelten Worte, die ein Schlafender im Traum von sich gibt. Cap Kendricks‘ Produktionen waren bereits auf Alben von Lakmann sowie Edgar Wasser und Fatoni zu hören. "Don’t Grow Up" ist nach Keats 04 – Blended das zweite Instrumental Vinyl-Release.

Auf "VATHER", zeigt sich das - hier werden ausschliesslich unreleaste Stücke diverser Festplatten der letzten Jahre erscheinen und das wird bunt!Wort zur Muther!

Poptartpete is the musical project of pro-skater Jamal Smith he declared that Palmas is his first vinyl and last appearance on the music scene as he wants to focus solely on his skateboarding career.

"Tonjen One" is an explosion of tasteful sounds and imagery. Deeply setup into modern electronic it mixes ambient robotic bleeps and soulful jazz hip hop beats. It's a multi-genre composition going easily from one world to the other and playing with the contrast between the two in a very satisfying way. The album flows as a continuous stream of sonic pleasure and comes out of the mind of Swiss producer YZNO (formerly known as Jazzo) releasing his first LP complemented by Isabel Seiffert's incredible artwork and under the Swiss label Boyoom Connective in collab with Urban Waves and HHV.

The title says it all: here are the leftovers from Damu's HISS sessions for volumes 3, 4 & 5. This nugget shouldn't be missed by any collector of classic boombap beats!"With all the material considered for How It Should Sound (HISS) Volumes 3-5, it became difficult to determine which tracks would make the final album. While working on the album (3, 4 & 5), I lost track of the complete running time and how many beats were recorded. Selecting and sequencing songs for the definitive album was a task in itself for Redef, but once we decided to make 3 volumes instead of 2 as originally intended, things started lining up. This record features bonus material including outtakes and interludes that otherwise would have gone unheard. Being the 5th anniversary of the HISS franchise (2010-2015), we wanted to acknowledge the milestone by making more music available to our unsuspecting fans. HISS Abyss. Whether you consider yourself a hardcore vinyl enthusiast or general fan of music, the intent of this record is to extend the listening experience as presented in the How It Should Sound Series. Thank you all for the support." - Damu The Fudgemunk

Welcome to the house of Suff Daddy. Drunken boom-bap madness with a 09 state of mind. Dope beats, sick samples and twisted Mini-Korg licks, fuelled with weed and Pilsetten. This is not your average Prenzelberg producer. Suff Deezy is on his own shit. He has laced beats for Miles Bonny, Oddisse, Kissey Asplund and Flo Mega but the beat daddy is really at home with his solo joints. Baaaaaaackinstock!

Bluestaeb's evolution from a beatmaker to a producer is his sophmore album “Everything is Always a Process”.He is one of the key figures of a new generation of up and coming HipHop beatmakers, who have emancipated from genre thinking and instead merge old school aesthetics with a new school attitude and organic instrumentation.Everything Is Always A Process re-iterates Bluestaeb's overall approach to life (and thinking), but also has direct reference to the making of the album itself, which began with moving from Berlin to Paris in 2015 in the search of new influences and a new creative environment.Created between 2015 and early 2018, EIAAP embodies the process of this transition - as well as collaboration with instrumentalists and vocalists from all over the world and recording in different studios in Paris, London & Berlin."Meeting all those musicians and trying out new ways of producing by using real analogue synths, Rhodes, drums and percussion etc. made it possible to overcome the creative boundaries of a home studio with just a midi keyboard" / BluestaebInfluenced by Madlib's "Shades Of Blue" and trained in African drum techniques such as Djembé and Daruka, Bluestaeb had been crafting his own beats since his teenage years and gradually found his sound identity through experimenting with HipHop and Jazz – first to be heard by a broader music community in 2013, when he released his debut album "1991 Extraterrestrial" (Radio Juicy). Since then the prolific young artist has released numerous solo and collaboration projects ("B.L.U.E. Friday" in 2015 and „Sidekicks“ with S. Fidelity in 2016). In 2016, he produced collaborative album "LIT - Lost In Translation“ with rapper JuJu Rogers, a keen manifesto against racism, xenophobia and the rise of anti-heroes such as Donald Trump.Today, Bluestaeb lives and works in Paris and Berlin and is set to release his third solo album “Everything Is Always a Process”, a smooth Neo Soul-induced epic featuring artists such as Noah Slee, Harleighblu and Melodiesinfonie.

Strictly limited reissue, exclusively available at Redefinition Records and HHV!Only one copy per customer!According to Merriam-Webster, "Vignettes" means, a short descriptive literary sketch/brief incident or scene (as in a play or movie). The album is aptly titled where 15 musical scenes, each with their own unique settings, are stitched harmoniously together to provide a universal message to the audience in which they use the gift of their own interpretation. At just over 2 hours long, the listener is given an unfiltered front row performance into the heart, mind and soul of the artist. This latest effort from Damu the Fudgemunk is of typical and unorthodox proportions. Musically, it's what you should expect from the man who brought you the How it Should Sound franchise, Supply for Demand and The Spur Momento Trailer. Intellectually, it's his most vulnerable piece of work to date. Hoping to challenge and inspire the listener through a musical narrative, it's content is open ended. Any resulting opinion that provokes thinking is encouraged given the message in this "Vignettes" album. Even the art direction is intentionally abstract and undefined to welcome the attention of all people. The album is completely instrumental except for “Openings,” the lone vocal track which features Raw Poetic. Though the word vignettes may refer to something brief, Damu the Fudgemunk's album "Vignettes" has a long future ahead for years to come.

Here's the follow-up to Wun Two's "Ships" LP called "Rio", a dedication to the rich musical history that Brazil provides using a bunch of Jazz and Bossa Nova samples to create a Wun Two'esque flavored soundtrack for the summer of 2014. Mellow!

Wun Two's seminal "Ships" arrive with plenty of mellow boombap and jazzy vibes at our coast. Another beaty delight from Radio Juicy, Urban Waves & HHV and simply recommended. Ship ahoy!

Der Berliner mit ghanaischen Wurzeln lebte im Schwarzwald und in Südamerika und ist ein Beat-Globetrotter, der sich in den Sound-Sphären und Kulturen zwischen Lagos und London, Atlanta und Accra, Baden und Berlin heimisch fühlt. Sein Ansatz verknüpft alte Sample-Tugenden mit afrofuturistischem Trap, ist klassisch und vorwärtgewandt, digital und warm. Knapp zwei Jahre nach seinem Instrumental-Debüt »Soul Fruits«, erscheint am 25.05. sein zweites Beat-Tape: »Future Soul«: 12 Tunes wie eine trippy Zeitreise durch Schall und Rausch. Synthie-Schwaden und hypnotische Loops verhallen in Post-R’n’B-Jams, gehen auf Soul Searching – und zeigen Ghanaian Stallion als eigenständigen, komplexen Künstler.

The album finds the Haitian born, Montreal raised producer delivering on the promise of his early self-released EPs and remixes.Since the age of fourteen, when he first began to DJ and when his brother introduced him to music production software, his output has been relentless. He explains, “after he showed me the basics, from that day on I couldn’t stop making beats,” pumping out a handful of tracks per day for the next couple of years.Having released singles like ‘Drive Me Crazy‘ with Vic Mensa and ‘Leave Me Alone‘ with Shay Lia, Kaytranada has since cemented his reputation and his sound; an undeniable swing of the drums comparable to Dilla’s, a signature soulful touch in the melodies, and a healthy dose of funky bass lines.99.9% features guest turns from Anderson .Paak, Vic Mensa, Little Dragon, Syd, Craig David, Goldlink, Alunageorge, BADBADNOTGOOD and many more.

Limited edition of 300 hand-numbered copies of Parisian producer SNKA's "Carnaval" album.Over the years SNKA has developed a distinct sound unlike no other, manifested from his combination of stumbling percussion, jazzy loops, wonky chops combined with his excellent choice of samples all give life to his off beat compositions which project an undeniable rhythm & flow.

Pete Rock's contribution to the now classic BBE Beat generation series. Essential!

STEP veröffentlicht ein Jahr nach „Footprint“ sein zweites Instrumental Album „Memory Lane“. Das Album erscheint am 27. September 2018 über Breakin` All Records in Kollabo mit 360° Records und ist auf 300 handnummerierte LP`s limitiert. Die Beats des Heidelberger Produzenten sind melodisch, teilweise durch live Violine unterstrichen und mit viel Liebe zum Detail gebaut. Das besondere an diesen Instrumentals ist, dass sie innen soft und chillig und außen verpackt im harten Boom Bap Style der Mitte 90er sind. Abgerundet wird das harmonische Klangbild durch moderne Elemente. „Memory Lane“ ist STEP´s musikalische Interpretation eigener Erinnerungen an prägende Orte, Situationen, Menschen und Hip Hop. Als Teil der 360° DJ’s rockte STEP zusammen mit Toni-L & Torch die Bühnen vom Splash bis zum Hip Hop Open, aber als Producer ist er in der Beat Gemeinde noch ein Geheimtipp, trotz des vielbeachteten Remix von Blumentopfs „Weißt du wer“ und weiteren Produktionen in Deutschland, Polen und Chile.
Gemastert wurde die Platte von Stefan Chiodo in den Drum und Dran Studios, Köln.Das Cover Design stammt von Stephan Rether (Grasime) / NeunzehnFünf.

12" Vinyl lp (digital download card included)We Stay True is proud to present ‘Calibre’ the brand new instrumental album from North London production duo Armed Dukes.‘Calibre’ is the long awaited follow-up to the duos highly acclaimed ‘Quadrant’ LP released on MUJ in 2016. Crafted between 2016 and 2017, these tracks are forged through unique work flows and sounds with raw samples and massive SP1200 breaks pounding the dynamic range. The pair’s meticulous, “they make it sound easy” approach to programming comes through on tracks such as Strife and Falling Down where simple samples are subtly layered to affect the synapses and emotions. Literally armed with 4 Emax samplers, the lush layers and analog filters make their warm presence felt particularly on tracks such as Nil By Mouth and Sentence.This is an album guaranteed to satiate any hip hop aficionado’s craving for raw, no nonsense 12-Bit boom bap while also providing new, desperately needed flavours to the instrumental Hip Hop scene. Once you hear it you’ll agree this is an album with a sonic texture all of it’s own.

Limited edition of 250 copies, only available at the "blu dot." release party in Berlin and at HHV! Three unreleased cuts from the "blu dot." sessions.

Repress with regular picture sleeve (no gatefold) and without booklet! Since the last two years FloFilz played in the first league of european beat-producers. With his smooth jazz samples he catches them all: his 46.000 (!) Soundcloud-Fans, the "Beatgeeks" from Berlin, the "Rapkids" from the Splash Festival and the Boiler Room in London. With "Cenário" FloFilz continues his musically city-trip, which started in Paris with "Metronom" in 2014. For his new album he travelled with the photographer Robert Winter to Lisbon. The impressions from the trip FloFilz put into 16 new tracks, on two of them he gets support by jazzsinger Olivia Wendlandt (Relaén).

The Art of the Sample is a unique project for New York hip-hop producer Blockhead. He was given access to sample De Wolfe’s music library and create his own library record. In his own words “These are not typical Blockhead songs. They’re more stripped down and focused for the purpose of being used in TV and film.” “For those who are unfamiliar with De Wolfe, they are a music library that has been doing music for film, radio and television for nearly 100 years. They make original music that gets plugged into all sorts of things and has been heard around the world. If you’re a producer, you have very likely sampled them and not even realized it. I was fortunate enough for them to allow me to make an album entirely out of their back catalogue.”The 14 track album will have a limited pressing of 1000 copies through Young Heavy Souls.

Are we soon to arrive at the end of this 11 year grace period with the GOAT?

Birds of a feather, flock together. It is a very old saying; It means that people with the same interests 'move' the same way. Fate, to some, is but a mere theory human beings adopt to try and make sense of the world around them. To others it is something solidified in the belief of serendipity, luck or good fortune if you will. Whatever the listeners personal concept of the term, the results of two musical minds from foreign lands meeting by accident is something I find difficult to believe happened by chance.During a cold winter in Innsbruck, while snow slept on the early morning streets, something was happening between the four walls of Philanthropes’ top floor apartment, as the rest of the city slumbered. Was it the mix of caffeine, lost love and their fondness of jazz? Or simply the right time and place, that gave way to these artists embarking on this instrumental journey together? I guess that is a question for the listener themselves. Whatever the conclusion, I’m sure you will enjoy the fruits of their musical labour during those times. Sit down, relax and take flight; let this record give you a time for contemplation, reflection and peace.

Nummerierte, limitierte Auflage von 250 Stück!Eloquent is zurück mit seinem Producer Alter Ego Onaknwn und macht gemeinsame Sache mit Negroman (Sichtexot), IAMPAUL (Daily Concept), Taipa und seinem Cousin A. Nadimi. Sehr lässige, brasilianische Vibes zwischen Hip Hop und Jazz.

Limited cassette edition!"Sloths sleep up to 20 hours a day. When awake, they hardly move. In a time when incessantly working can be a sign of both poverty and professional success—sadly, they’re not mutually exclusive—it’s important to imitate the sloth once in a while. If you’d like to listen to music while you rest up, look no further than Snaer.’s Doze. Collectively, the tracks on Doze are capital-M Mellow. Unified by soft piano keys, breezy guitars, and downtempo percussion, they drift in and out of one another seamlessly. The smooth guitar riff on “Hangin’” is stripped to sparse plucking on the following track, “Big Bud,” and both share the same crunchy kicks and snares. Elsewhere, as on “Malibu.Vibes” and “Blazer,” the drums purposefully drag a step behind the melody. It’s a sluggishness that’s meant to evoke the feeling of ambling along the beach before easing into a hammock. Find your beach, and play Doze in your headphones all summer long." -Max Bell (Bandcamp)

Cold Busted’s acclaimed IWYMI series makes the jump to vinyl with a four song IWYMI INTNl 7” (It’s What You Make It International)” focusing on Japanese beatmakers. Curated by Es-K and Vitamin D, the single aims to expose a quartet of worthy producers from the Land of the Rising Sun to turntables worldwide. EN Tokyo’s Pigeondust launches the wax with his smooth and sexy “Bboy Blue,” filled with glistening keys and guitar chops over intricate rhythms. The lilting “Inheritance” comes next via Utsunomiya’s Axion117 (Collective Resonance), easing the listener into a quiet storm mentality. The mesmerizing vibes continue as Tokyo-based beat-slinger Bugseed drops the dreamy “Mindless” straight to the platter. Tajima Hal (Hermit City Recordings) closes out the single in style with “All Day,” featuring cut-up beats, looped guitar and vocals, and an otherworldly flavor. The IWYMI INTNl: Japan 7” is a prime sampler of the innovative sounds coming from Japan’s instrumental hip hop scene.

Self described as a beat baker, Sleepy Eyes has this beautiful ability of cooking tracks with the simplest ingredients. The album gives out a fresh air of modernity and nostalgia at the same time with handpicked samples and loops that come naturally to the ear. You can expect nothing less than laid back tunes with unpretentious yet on point beats. "Burnout" will take you through a carnival of emotions, colors and love all you gotta do is open up and ride along.

“Inner Sea” is a journey inwards, delving into the hidden ocean of unconscious dreams and memories. Melodies tell stories of key moments, anchoring certain points in one’s life and the experiences and sensations they reflect. Giving them sounds to breathe and mirroring the soul in unseen depths, these memories are stored eternally in a shelter floating within this inner world.“All these memories lay in the depths of my inner sea. It‘s surface reflects pictures of all the worlds that I want to dive back into, over and over again.” – Takeleave | Nicolas De Araújo Peixoto‘Inner Sea’ comes out worldwide on limited double blue vinyl (including download code) & digital.

Fat Beats Records presents the ninth installment of Baker’s Dozen, an exclusive vinyl series that shines a light on the best minds of instrumental hip-hop, ambient, and electronic music. Each installment gives one artist carte blanche to capture their signature sound.Every volume’s strictly limited vinyl pressing features one artist and twelve tracks. Visually cohesive and packaged with the utmost attention to detail, Baker’s Dozen is a series that speaks up for artists whose craft renders voices superfluous, whose instrumentals alone suffice to make a statement.Since the beginning, my philosophy has always been that perfection is boring, so despite all the changes that have occurred with my equipment and system, that main philosophy remains the same.In the beginning it was all about flipping samples with FL Studio and just my computer keyboard, and over the years, I added the MPD and Masterkey in order to be able to jam out drums live and play keys, which speeds up the workflow. I like the effects on the 404, and there’s a lot of dope ways to integrate my iPad into it, but at the end of the day, it starts with a melody or sample, and I kinda just let the vibe take over.-ELAQUENT

Radio Juicy proudly presents (in collaboration with Urban Waves and HHV) "Waves", the debut solo album by very talented young producer from London 2LATE. Thorough the entire album tone is set on killer beats and mesmerizing melodies. Each track comes out as decisive and precise as katana strikes from a Samurai. 2LATE simply does it right, he's successfully captivating our attention with his mind stimulating music. As the album expands you'll notice the change as one side is old school and the other is new school. Showcasing the potential of 2LATE's production skills. Not much is left untouched, from Jazzy melodies to Reggae, from gangsta to trap, everything is flowing naturally. "Waves" is one hell of an album.

LIT is a snapshot of Bluestaeb und JuJu Rogers' musical endeavors in Fall 2016. Both had a successful 2015 & 2016 with highly acclaimed albums and a European support tour of Oddisee for JuJu Roogers. Both musicians are working on new solo albums and both of them are not happy with having the "boom bap" stamp forced on them. Their perspective is about progression, live music, changing the formula and going new ways. This doesn’t mean that they’re blindly following trends but to question and adapt one’s own formula. In the case of lit it means adding live musicians to the equation, going for a sound that refines the direction they took on their previous releases. With regard to content, JuJu's raps on the project deals with the important questions of our time. The trend word „lit“ becomes „LIT“, an abbreviation for "lost in translation" and a metaphor for the disconnection from trends of our society in general and hip hop especially. Racism, police brutality, gangsta rapper turning activists while still following a pattern of hate and destruction. Bluestaeb’s productions fluctuates from soulful and smooth to raw and gritty without sounding redundant or interchangeable.
