Kutmah started "Sketchbook" as a radio show in 2003 on Dublab in Los Angeles. A year later "Sketchbook" became the first instrumental beat night in the city. This was the breading grounds for the already flourished but almost unknown beat scene outside of Los Angeles. Artists such as Ras G, Dibiase, Georgia Anne Muldrow and Flying Lotus would frequent the club and would bring beat CD's to showcase their talent whenever they pleased and Kutmah always got their beat CD's at the end of the night."Sketchbook Archives Series" is a compilation that dates back to this era and the present day. It features exclusive tracks from artists such as Natureboy Flako, Samiyam, Al Dobson Jr., Ras G, Flying Lotus, Pablo Ygal, Mo Kolours, Shash'u and many more.

Limited edition of 300 copies on black vinyl!Invention is a producer of many talents, he's known for his music but also for his art and creative designs. "Hibernature" is an album inspired by nature and decay. The end of a summer, another cycle in motion. Invention brings back to life sounds from the past, his magic is being able to recycle and redesign melodies that sound so familiar and yet so fresh. This album will make you very nostalgic for reasons you won't be able to explain, like talking directly to your subconscious. It made much sense to us to bring you this album right before autumn comes, as we see it like the perfect fit. We hope you enjoy. Much love.

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.

Limited edition of 300 copies on black vinyl!"Coming Up For Air" is a fantastic journey in the mind of the young producer from San Jose, California, the one and only Knowmadic. The album takes you along to an adventure through an urban jungle of vintage light signs, street stalls and autumn leaves. When suddenly the street is covered with people crowding in front of something that you can't see but the urge to know is overwhelming so you push your way forward to finally come up for air. Like opening a door to discover a room filled with people lounging and talking to each other with drinks and smokes, a familiar music is playing and you wanna know what it is, that's when you see Knowmadic playing his latest album in the corner of the room.It's a very simple concept but true to its nature, everything is on point. Knowmadic expertly brings you this album that is full of joy and sorrow and will make you unconsciously reflect and progress.

Phoniks returns with his first full-length solo project. An 18-track instrumental hip-hop beat tape titled “Down To Earth”. Nearly 2 years in the works, Phoniks dug through over 250 hours worth of recorded material when piecing together his solo debut. The album is comprised of 2 to 3 minute jazz-tinged lo-fi head nodders connected with thought provoking spoken word samples from 50’s sci-fi space movies. Crunchy 12-bit drums, spaced-out filters and delays and a sprinkling of horn loops and soul vocals captivate over the albums 40-min run time. The goal is to take the listener off to another place, floating through the cosmos on a one-man space craft with nothing but a pair of headphones and all the time in the world.

“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.

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 copies on black vinyl of Japanese beatmaker Tajima Hal's first vinyl album on Radio Juicy called "Isolated Planet".

Die Serie für Ausnahmesound von Ausnahmetalenten geht in die vierte Runde. Diesmal im Regiesitz ein langer Freund des Hauses und eiserne Konstante in jeder stilfesten instrumental Hip Hop Playlist: MelodiesinfonieSeit 2013 erscheint der in Zürich lebende Groovejunkie auf den Sichtexot gelabelten Scheiben und produzierte unter anderem Tracks für Tufu (Abdoom&Unraum) oder Luk&Fil (Brot Ist Essbares Holz).Aufgewachsen unter den Fittichen eines jazzverrückten Vaters, führte es den talentierten Spross zunächst ans Drumset, wo er in zahlreichen Kombos genreübergreifend Fähigkeiten ausbaute, die sein heutiges Fingerspiel an den Drumcomputern der Nation sowohl Live als auch im Studio übermäßig erhaben scheinen lassen.Sowohl seine ständige Präsenz in den einschlägigen Clubs über den deutschsprachigen Raum hinaus, als auch seine letzten beiden Soloalben „Friede Freude“ (HHV, 2014) und „Be thankful“ (MPM, 2016) bestätigen, dass man es hier mit einem Musiker zu tun hat, mit dem man noch lange zu rechnen hat.Mit Sichtexotica IV setzt Melodiesinfonie nochmal einen drauf und stellt erneut sein musikalisches Know-How, als auch sein Gespür genreübergreifend Einflüsse einzuarbeiten und perfekt fusionieren zu lassen zur Schau.Housige Clapgrooves (Afterdinner), selbst besungene Slowjams (Clearwater) oder Cowbellshuffles so atmosphärisch unterlegt, dass man das Gefühl hat in den Rhodeflächen schwimmen zu können bevor man plötzlich umringt von Neonlichtreklamen die Nachtluft Tokyos schmeckt (Remember It & TOKYO). Unendlich Vielseitig. Eindrucksstark. Erdend.Den leidigen Boombap Stempel längst vom Handgelenk gewaschen setzt der Ausnahme Beatenthusiast mit seiner Sichtexotica Fortsetzung ein Ausrufezeichen voller glühender Jazzvibes hinter seine drei Vorgänger.Sichtexotica IV kommt am 23.11.2018 - wie immer im 10inch Format, limitiert auf 500 handnummerierte Exemplare. Covergestaltung mit besonderer goldener Heißfolienveredlung von Mathilda Mutant.Ein Rausch für Ohr und Auge.Spread Love, SXT

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!

Limited to 250 copies.

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.

Limited edition of "Re:verse", a stunning collection of reinterpretations by FloFilz of some classic cuts. Includes the vocal versions on one record as well as the mellow instrumental versions on the other. Better be quick here!

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.

Cypress Hill is widely respected and considered to be amongst the mainprogenitors of West Coast rap and Hip Hop in the early 1990s.With mega-hits like “Insane in the Brain”, “I Wanna Get High” or “TequilaSunrise” they crossed-over to mainstream breaking all records for a rapband up until that time. Cypress Hill were the first Latino-American hiphopgroup to have RIAA Certified platinum and multi-platinum albums.As musicians they became famous for the crazy sounds produced by DJMuggs and Bobo and the stoner sympathetic lyrics of B-Real and SenDog. They redefined and shattered the boundaries of hip-hop, craftinggutter-dirty tracks that fused deep bass lines with blissful, stoned-outmelodies and aggressive hard rock riffs, creating a unique imprint..This is an esential and powerful weapon for all the Hip Hop creators andDJ´s.

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.

"Feathers Of Gold" is the first imprint on vinyl by the producer from Alaska, eets. Not much is actually known about the man himself but his work in the beat scene has been significant during the last couple of years. Mostly with the label Burnt Tapes where as a co-founder he was involved in some of the illest lo-fi vibes found on cassette lately. For this occasion we wanted him to bring us an album that not only showed his producing abilities but also his very own take on today's beat music. "Feathers of Gold" does just that, it is an honest and adventurous statement that will definitely surprise.

"Society Collapse" is Klaus Layer's fourth full length album since 2013 and possibly his greatest musical achievement to date. Two years in the making, Klaus reveals an instrumental concept album full of genre-defying arrangements and hidden layers that will reward the listener over repeated plays. In just three years since his vinyl debut, Klaus has earned himself a reputation as Germany's most prolific and unique hip-hop conductor yet and this record will only further solidify that."In a society where unsettling truths about responsibility are given little thought, and short-sighted impulses have become commonplace, it’s easy to become disillusioned, but it gets a little harder when what we’re looking at are the bricks with which to build the future. There is never a time without consequence; history provides a resource of successes, failures and reflection. Eras of change ebb and flow and ours is once again uniquely positioned to cultivate an understanding of this interaction between the past and present to act upon what comes next.This record is a musical manifesto for reclaiming that awareness, personal choice and inspiration for progression.” - Klaus Layer

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!

FloFilz is one of the most promising newcomers on the German beatmaker scene. His sound is deeply rooted in the Low End Theory (Tribe not LA) school of beats and his tracks regularly hitthe six-digit plays mark on Soundcloud. FloFilz grew up in Belgium and lives currently in Aachen where his studies violin. When it comes to his own beats, jazz reigns supreme over nearly any other music. „Metronom“ is his first official album and we are delighted to release it on Melting Pot Music.

We’ve been following Mononome’s exceptional work for a few years now, and we are very proud to release this beauty.

1996 is an instrumental album by Germany's beatmaker 'Shuko' who produced for the likes of Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Snoop, Pusha-T, Jedi Mind Tricks, Talib Kweli, B-Real and many more... When he started to listen to Hip Hop in 1996 he never thought about working or writing with one of his icons. 22 Years later he looks back on a strong catalog of beats he produced for his childhood heroes from Cypress Hill, Grand Puba, Cl Smooth, Sadat X, O.C., Ras Kass, Keith Murray and many more just to name a few. For this album Shuko only worked with the original equipment that was used 1996 in Hip Hop's golden era to capture the same vibe and sound. SP1200 & Akai MPC60 are the foundation of all his Beats besides one of his favourite samples of this age. 1996 is a homage of one of the best years in hip hop with guaranteed flashbacks, knocking drums, jazzy vibes and nodding heads.

Limited edition of 300 copies on black vinyl of Autumn Keys vinyl debut on Radio Juicy / Urban Waves / HHV. Tip!

Strictly limited reissue, exclusively available at Redefinition Records and HHV!Only one copy per customer!Klaus Layer uses his sampler as an instrument to construct the many layers of music all wrapped up in his songs. Klaus' fascination with antique bizarreness and the surreal grants his work a unique and instantly recognizable personality that transcends his inspirations. It's a sound that demands and rewards repeat listens.On Restless Adventures, the beloved East Coast aesthetic of his influences are inverted somewhat with what seems to be a preoccupation with the sublimity of the organic green world. The effects are minute, subtle, and highly effectual. The ambient sounds of nature that Klaus organically weaves between layers of snappy drums and warped samples could be described as both psychedelic and organic ... unfamiliar, yet strangely comforting.Kudos to Klaus for delivering a brave and experimental album to be enjoyed on numerous levels; it swings right for Hip-Hop heads, has layers of exotic instrumentation on top, and potentially something else in-between for listeners who like to look for narratives in their music. Perhaps most impressively, it does all of this a lot more cohesively than the title would have you think. The (Restless) Adventures of Captain Crook continue.Completely produced with the MPC 2000 XL and a Tascam 8-Track machine. Mastered by K-Def!

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!

Accomplished Polish beat-maker Emapea has made memorable appearances on many Cold Busted label compilations – such as in the IWYMI and Bust Free series – and has been selected for inclusion in Mark Farina’s next Mushroom Jazz installment. All this activity has mouths watering for the debut full length album from Emapea, and the appearance of Seeds, Roots & Fruits doesn’t disappoint one bit. Featuring sixteen exceptional tracks ranging from hip hop to acid jazz to psychedelic trip hop in the style of Mo’Wax, Emapea’s long player is indeed, as a wise man once said, “a journey into sound.” Seeds, Roots & Fruits rises above the average beats album to reveal the enduring depth of this young producer.

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.

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.

he 2nd release on 823, a creative project founded by Ta-ku, is featuring the label debut of Portland wunderkind quickly, quickly.823 is also the numerical representation of the phrase 'Thinking Of You'. It represents the appreciation for the people/ideas/places that inspire us and push us forward. As a label we are proud to present a series of musical releases that showcase the artists musical & visual endeavors. The artwork is shot by the artist themselves & each release has an accompanying photo zine that acts as a visual story that compliments the music they wrote at that time. There’s a maturity to the sound of Portland, Oregon-based producer quickly, quickly that makes it difficult to believe he’s just 17 years old. Using elements of jazz, hip hop, and R&B, quickly, quickly weaves a tapestry of wispy productions that feel equally inspired by the dusty drums of early ’90s boom bap as they do by the whimsical electronics of head-turning contemporaries like Tennyson. Taking over on vocals, bass, drums, and piano, he offers insight into a greater understanding of musicality, There’s time devoted to each audible layer and it shows.

Deep House Legend Craig Smith and Andrew McGroaty finally let their long running Instrumental Hip-Hop project out into the world. Inspired by their love of Soul, ATCQ, Jay Dilla, and vintage drum machines."The sense of funky detail woven by Craig Smith/Signal sounds imagines the world of patchwork Hip Hop as made famous by No-ID & Dilla... Incredibly soulful very warm with a bounce in the beat” Femi Fem (Young Disciples)"Craig Smith is a OG. Coming back to his roots of chopping samples and adding drums with an ear that has been trained and sensiblilized for the soulful boom bap 30 years in the making. Classic golden era break ya neck shit." Marcel Vogel (Lumberjacks In Hell)

The late, great J Dilla is rightly celebrated as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time, in part because his ear for music was so diverse and expansive. As Dilla’s mother Ma Dukes explains, “He didn’t come with a limited capacity, and real producers produce, produce, and produce. “There are no formats for genius workers...just non-stop creations.” Now, a fresh batch of those creations will be made available to the world for the first time, in the form of the latest official J Dilla release, Dillatronic. Presented by Ma Dukes and compiled by DJs Alien Villainz (fellow Detroit natives who worked closely with Dilla), Dillatronic contains over 40 rare instrumentals that showcase Dilla’s undeniable electronic influences. J Dilla’s music was impacted by the diverse musical history of Detroit - the birthplace of Techno and one of the most important cities in the history of electronic music. “You can hear it in songs like ‘Raise It Up’ for Slum Village or ‘Make It Hurt’ for Busta Rhymes,” says Young RJ (Dilla’s protégé and member of Slum Village). “The Detroit influence is part of what gave him an edge in production.” With today’s music sounding more electronic than ever, Dillatronic has a shockingly contemporary feel. “These tracks are still ahead of their time sonically,” explains RJ. “The things producers are doing now, Dilla did that 15 years ago.”

Computa Games returns with a pair of B-Boy bangers to follow up their recently successful "Cosmic Dispatch" EP. The hard hitting Linn Drum sound and funky synth bass of “Rock Creek (Revenge)” will have B-boys and B-girls popping and locking all night long. “Apache 3000” on the B-side is an homage to early breakdance and old school Hip Hop DJ culture. This 45rpm is a sure-shot for all you breakers and DJ's out there!

Almost 10 years have passed since Onra arrived with the charmingly eccentric Chinoiseries LP. 32 Hip-Hop beats formed the sample-based project - dusty Chinese vinyl hissing and crackling throughout – resulting in an intriguing and spontaneous mix of the producers interest in exploring a newly-discovered style of Music with his love for classic Hip-Hop production. Using the style of analogue MPC production combined with the somewhat restrictive record sampling of strictly Chinese Music records, he has been able to be creative over three volumes, an amount of 100 instrumentals, despite the challenge of finding more obviously standout samples in Chinese music. The Chinoiseries projects are the type of albums that invites the listener to play it from beginning to end, in order to really enjoy the trip and appreciate the variety of rhythms and textures spread over those 32 short instrumentals. In that way, “Pt.3” is no different to its predecessors, but the originality of the samples, the curious harmonies and the odd-drum patterns still makes the album sounds as fresh as the first one. Onra finishes this epic trilogy with class as a result of extended record digging across the Far East and the producer's own development over the preceding 10 years. As a producer who has released records inspired by 80's Funk, 90's Hip-Hop and R'n'B, Electronic and even a Spiritual Jazz project, “Pt. 3” brings this stylised set to a close. Normally a man of few words, Onra has his own take on the three Volumes: I see the first Chinoiseries as a trip, inspired by my own first travel to Asia, each beat representing one particular moment of the journey, the second one, more like a soundtrack to a movie, each beat representing a different scene, and the third one, I tried to create a dark, smoky and mysterious cinematic atmosphere so you could create your own movie in your head. For this last episode, I just really wanted to have fun with this type of material for the very last time. I dug deeper than ever and I have tried to do as many different rhythm patterns as possible, from various influences like Hip-Hop (from different eras), to Bossa to Indian Music to Psych Rock, Soul, etc. and try to portray a different image of Chinese Music.

Massive jazzy vibes from Austrians producers Mono:Massive and Philanthrope joining forces on this LP for Radio Juicy called Monothrope. The collaboration on this project is a revelation, you'll recognize the sweet and familiar vibes from both artists and something new, like a spark in the middle of the night. Their joint effort brought life to a captivating album, from start to end it will transport you and you'll be left wanting for more. This is a unique release that we feel privileged to present to you. Enjoy and let it flow.

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. This album is a closure for him and includes all the beats that he made and mostly never shared before. We like to think optimistically that this is a closure for this chapter in his life but hopefully will hear from him again in the future except not anytime soon.

2 more volumes with a nice bonus donut!

“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.

Mit „Lush Space Daze“ veröffentlicht Nelson Brandt aka Knowsum sein drittes Soloalbum und schafft den Sprung vom Hip-Hop-Beatmaker zum Songwriter und Performer.Unzählige Beat-EPs, diverse Rap-Veröffentlichungen unter anderem Alias Nepumuk und als 50% von Luk&Fil sowie zwei Solo LP’s „Hyasynthus“ (Vol. 7 der legendären Beatreihe „Hi-Hat Club“ via Melting Pot Music, 2015) und „Play God & Shit Happends“ (via Money $ex Records, 2016). Die Diskographie KNO’s ist sound -und groovetechnisch zu unverwechselbar, zu stilsicher um sich jemals daran satthören zu können. „Lush Space Daze“ ist nun eine logische Weiterentwicklung im Klangkosmos des Musikers aus Offenbach (Germany) und sein wohl komplettestes Album auf seinem Heimatlabel Sichtexot.„Did you know that your brain can play some silly games with yourself?“ (‚Jump‘)Mit Feingefühl toteffektierte Gitarrenriffs fusionieren mit Synthieflächen in Achtzigerjahre Neon, und werden im gleichen Zug überschattet von einem Frontmann der in der Hochblüte des Krautrock Untergrunds vermutlich zur ewigen Legende avanciert wäre. Trotz der Vermischung von gefühlt einem Dutzend verschiedener Stilrichtungen, könnte das Album in sich wohl nicht stimmiger klingen. Denn Knowsum schafft es durch den autodidaktischen Gebrauch von Gitarre, Bass, Synthesizer, Drumcomputer und Gesang, verschmolzen mit seinem Gesang, ein verzückendes und bizarres Soundbild zu erschaffen.Die besondere Stimmung und der Gesang funktionieren dann mal auf einem funky Beat mit prägnanter Bassline (‚Late Night Things‘), mal auf einem zerbrechlichen E-Piano-Klangteppich (‚Plastic Dreams’, ‚Blue‘) oder auch auf Akkustikgitarre (‚Dispair‘, ‚Daydream‘). Trotz der oft sehr experimentellen Songstrukturen, mal catchy, oft weirden Melodien und der endlos vielen Details bleiben die Songs stets harmonisch und einprägsam. „Close your eyes and tell me what you see, is it us oder is it just you and me?“ (‚Sweet Disguise‘)Und wer unbedingt ein Genre braucht, der darf oder muss am Ende selbst entscheiden, ob Progressive-Pop-Albträume in Neonpink, experimental Singer-Songwriter-Funk oder letztendlich doch die Post-Wave-Neo-R&B-Einflüsse überwiegen...Liebe und Champagner für den Dancefloor der Übriggebliebenen.

Third Soul Dynamite release is another must have for all B-Boy DJs and true funky heads! Four raw instrumentals on 45 rpm, coming straight out from Bulgaria, produced by Skill. Each track is a floor burner that guarantees every DJ madness in the B-Boy cypher. Limited to 100 in red color.

This new edition contains previously unreleased material.

A nice blend of hip hop, triphop, lofi, electronic and chill vibes. Made with hundreds of cups of coffee and love for music.

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.

Strictly limited edition of 300 copies with 3 different artworks (100 copies each).Only one copy per customer!KUSO GVKI is a German beatmaker from Düsseldorf with Japanese roots. Kusogaki is a Japanese tackiness describing a bad-mannered child and would literally translate as something like “fucking brat”. On his eponymous debut release the 16-year old prodigy surprises his audience with a stunningly refined signature sound and elaborate arrangements that go far beyond the juvenile impudence that his name might suggest. The extensive utilisation of the one and only TR-808 and a focus on bpm ranges between 50 and 70 are key elements to the sound of contemporary beat producer KUSO GVKI.

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.

Limited edition of 350 copies only!Only one copy per customer!Soul Dynamite is a new imprint from Bulgaria bringing you some of the finest B-boy breaks with their first release."Bulgarianized" is a killer bgirl/bboy tune that is based on a sample from a well-known Bulgarian song from the early 70s “A Bulgarian Rose” composed by Maestro Dimitar Valchev. The song is produced by Huckspin & Monophonic, two DJ fellas from Mannheim, Germany. It also features Jojo Kraus and Igor Rudytskyy on the keys and trumpet. After playing several years at the "Jam On It" festival, Huckspin found the original song in a tiny record store in Sofia. The song, the beautiful country and the "Jam On It" festival inspired him to create "Bulgarianized". The track is dedicated to all the B-girls and B-boys and especially to the Sleepwalkingz Crew, originators of breaking and the organizers of the "Jam On It" Festival. “Wah Wah Wah”, an ode to the beloved Wah Wah pedal sound from the 70s, produced by Berlin’s undisputed funkateers Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop, for the first time on a 45s, celebrates it’s 10th anniversary this year since the original release. If you have ever witnessed how the Berlin duo has smashed a party with two turntables and a funky piano, you have a pretty good idea what damage this tune will do. This song is truly a delight! Point blank. TIP!!!

Entering the Dirty Art Club is like letting an encyclopedic sample curator soundtrack a vibrant psychedelic cartoon dream. Conceived in North Carolina, fragments of sun-kissed soul and dusty psyche-rock sounds are stitched together and intertwined with live instrumentation recorded in a home studio setup to convey a woozy and soulful experience. It's a blend that’s been refined on Dirty Art Club’s latest album, “Basement Séance”, which is themed around sampling rare “old songs and records that barely anybody's heard" and reanimating them into a new life. Embracing a recording environment that usually involves sitting on the floor in a dark room, the Dirty Art Club production style is anchored around the technique of creating a sonic texture based on multiple sources: The fruits of vinyl digging trips are combined with layers of live instrumentation and embellished with field recordings and atmospheric effects. These component parts are skillfully mixed so that they “sound like one sample.” It’s a trick that creates a unity of sound where songs segue together while moving the emotional narrative along. This emotional resonance is what elevates Dirty Art Club’s music from being a simple hip-hop beat tape. It's a feat made more remarkable by the fact that during the two-year recording process of “Basement Séance”, its chief protagonist was overcoming a battle with the medical condition anhedonia as a symptom of a larger unspecified health issue. It left him temporarily "losing the innate feelings that govern how I identify with and perceive music.” This was after a lifetime of feeling “music-inspired emotion” more than any other source. "I'd lost all hope in my ability to inject something more essential than drums, effects, and supplemental noise into samples," confesses the man behind Dirty Art Club, before summing up his personal recovery and philosophy towards creating compositions. “If music really has something magical about it—as I've always believed it has—then the loss I was experiencing would somehow embed itself in the songs and be felt in lieu of my absence.” Consider that the true essence of a basement seance. ~ Phillip Mlynar
