Smooth Jamz: The Definitive Collection

OK GUYZ...

so if you've been paying attention to the blog for the past year or so, you'll know I've kept a very loose installment entitled "Smooth Jamz," where I post some mp3s or youtubes of some of my favorite songs which I consider to be "smooth jamz." I consider smooth jamzs to be a combination of several sub-genres, mostly stemming from 70s/80s AM pop, yacht rock, smooth r&b, and jazz/fusion.

I'm a huge fan of this music & therefore typically prone to buying lots of records that fall into the genre. I recently decided to scour my vinyl collection for some of the smoothest tracks I own and then compile them all into one epic collection, one which I feel fully reflects & encompasses the genre. I also tried to stray away from the popular stuff that some of you have already heard, so hopefully this will be an ear opening adventure for y'all.

I also personally love to sample this stuff in my own productions, so I fully support people sampling these songs & creating their own smooth jam beats - and if anyone wants to send me something you've created using samples from one or more of the tracks, I'll definitely post it up here on da blog.

So without further adieu, please download & enjoy "Smooth Jamz: The Definitive Collection."

Triple You Tapes

So our buddy Ian of the seminal Friendship Bracelet has launched a new project this summer called Triple You Tapes. UUU Must Download the UUUTAPES SUUUMUUUR SAMPLUUUR, featuring 14 new flavors of summer you've never tasted. I've had the new Mane Mane joint 'Twnkl Sr' on repeat. When that shit hits 2:00... fuuugeddabouuutit. There's also a phresh new Mane Mane remix aqui.

First release forthcoming on UUUTAPES is Termeric's Natural Gel cassette, followed by fresh material from Persona La Ave. Speaking of Termeric (1/2 of Mane Mane), look out for his version of QUIET NIGHTS first week of September right hurrrr!!!!

Kuhn - New Remixes and Quiet Nights EP Forthcoming

Today my Spacemusik EP has been downloaded more than 1000 times since its release in March. Thanks to all who've tuned in and to my Astro Nautico brothers especially for pushing me to share my music on this blog.

To celebrate, I just posted up a trio of remixes all from the last couple weeks. They're
password protected bc I want them to be exclusive for you, the Astro Nautico community: pw is 'thankz'.

Also, the QUIET NIGHTS EP is just around the corner. It's been a pet project of mine for a while now and we're finally releasing it first week of September right here on the blowg.

The story is that I've been passing around a tape that used to belong to my dad, seeing if any producers I personally admire want to cut it up. The tape had a recording of 'Corcovado' by Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto that had been dubbed from vinyl to cassette back in the day. Sort of a gem because of how much grit is on it (and
because the original song is so gorgeous).

Anyway, I had already sampled the tape for 'Quiet Nights' (on our Atlantics EP). Thought it would be cool to see what others would do with it. The result, months later, is that we have three new versions from each member of the in-house krew and several
radical (still secret) guestspots... Stay chuned!!!!!!

DIBIA$E

The world needs to stop sleeping on Dibia$e already. Do yourself a favor and perk up before this shit drops or else tits ganna be a rude wake up call......

'Lumberjack' is the first single off the forthcoming Machines Hate Me LP out on Alpha Pup this winter. Album art by Guillermo Bonte above.

Lead single "Lumberjack" leans toward his psychedelic soul side, creating an orchestral maze more reminiscent of J Dilla than a flannel-clad forest dweller (presumably, it derived its name from his facility at chopping samples.) Yet it reflects only one facet of the producer, with the full-length fleshing him out further as a California cognate to Hyperdub's Ikonika -- one of the best at creating soundtracks that balance between the futuristic and the days when saving the princess was your primary concern.

-LA Timez

The Jamz...

....They're coming.
