New EP "Third Ey Spectrum" out now!

https://solarsoundsystem.bandcamp.com/album/third-eye-spectrum

Coming off the back off a beat cypher for the good folks at Workinonit (Manchester), I realised it's been WAY too long since I put any of my music out there. So here it is - a quartet of tracks to see you through the heat of the summer.

Who knows, I might even put out a full project soon!

Brand new album 'Samskara' out now:
https://solarsoundsystem.bandcamp.com/album/samskara-2

Samskara is an almost universal concept across South Asia. In Indian philosophy, samskaras are mental impressions, recollections, or psychological imprints. In Hindu philosopy, samskaras are a basis for the development of karma theory. In Buddhism the Sanskrit term Saṅkhāra is used to describe 'formations'. In Pali it is referred to as Saṅkhāra.

This collection of instrumentals takes inspiration from across India and South Asia: from traditional India music to Bollywood Disco, from Luk Thung and American influenced Thai Funk. It's informed by over a decade of digging for obscure funky cuts from Malaysia to Myanmar.

It's been way too long since I uploaded something on SC....this one is the first in a series of instrumentals dedicated to people who inspire me: whether personally, musically or otherwise. All tracks made using hardware samplers: no Ableton or Cubase for these joints :-)

This one is for @bug-seed - one of my favourite beatmakers. period.

Lenny De Luca - How I Want It (Mecca:83 Remix)

Back at it! I've been hanging onto this little gem for a while. Originally intended for release on a couple of vinyl compilations that never quite made it, then lost when my laptop was stolen back in 2017. Until that is, I found the project files on a USB drive before Christmas! 

Enjoy some ethereal yet funky vibes courtesy of myself, Boogie-down Buscrates and the don outta Denmark, J Vibes.

A little something created in honour of one of my favourite eras in Hip Hop. I posted a snippet of one of these beats a while back on Twitter and people keep asking me to upload it, so here's a full EP worth of beats :-)

It might not be my usual style, but who doesn't love some classic 12-bit crunch right?!

Hope you're all staying fave out there.

Due Time (feat. Jonny Tobin)

Download at Bandcamp:
https://solarsoundsystem.bandcamp.com/album/quiet-moments

They say the only constant is change. I can certainly attest to that. Between work, parenting and day-to-day commitments, my life has done nothing but become busier over the past few years. Music has become a late night pursuit when children, animals and work emails have started to slumber.

This release is my soundtrack to those quiet moments - that period of time when the world becomes still and time moves a little slower. Meditative moments for self contemplation...
