2024++

Throughout my career, I’ve created (or co-created) some iconic mixtapes.  Viva La Hova.  Dillagence.  Ready To Boom.  That mixtape with Adele.  And of course, the Summertime series with Jazzy Jeff.

But this one here (probably my last ever mixtape, to be honest) is special.

The music.  The concept.  And even the origin story.

Recently, I was blasting Jay-Z’s The Blueprint in honor of its 20th anniversary.

My fiancé Carolyn was upstairs playing lots of Beyoncé to balance out the incessant amount of Hov playing in my office.

At one point, both playlists synced on beat and my mind was blown.

My first thought: THIS SHOULD BE AN ALBUM

I called up my creative partner Chi Duly (the most talented musician I know) and we fleshed out the idea for this project.

I dug up all the classic Blueprint samples (and some other classic Jay sources, as well).  

Chi acquired a bunch of Beyoncé acapellas.   And then we got to work.

23 songs.  All songs produced exclusively for this tape.  These are not deejay blends.  This is original production using the original samples with lots of other fun things added in.

(And, of course, some rare and timely Jay-Z verses sprinkled in for good measure).

I’m not sure if we will ever get The Carters, Part 2.

But until that day… we have something just as good. :)

This is the most creative thing I have ever been a part of.

This is Beyoncé meets The Blueprint.

This is THE B-PRINT.

We all know this moment - you are lying in bed with a loved one and the world stands still.

You put on some music to set the scene for rising temperatures under the sheets…

The set you put on suddenly brings you out of rhythm, but getting up to skip the track is no longer an option.

We have been scouting for the perfect sunday morning sets for quite a while already and @Mattmosphere has been a steady supplier of them for us. So we asked him and his partner Adriana to record one hour of music together, to which they like to stay in bed with.

It's an intimate ask, but they said yes and this beauty of a set is the result. 

Mattmosphere selected half the tracks and adriana aka @amapola-sounds selected the other half and sang her own beautiful lyrics ( see below), their good friend @morgen_musik recorded them and the result is something magical: 

So grab your special person, get cosy, press play and let the love birds fly ❤️

Here the lyrics to the set:

The Cloud Room
 Es marzo en una ciudad de Europa de 2023
Después de un invierno de temperaturas extremadamente frías, la ciudad está esperando la primavera.
Figuras etéreas.
El rastro de dos copas de vino. 
La blusa tirada en el suelo.
Olor de amor encerrado. 
Y el resto de algunas ramas de uvas. 

Ojos cerrados,  
Manos que se buscan entre ellas Cosquilleos. 
Y se vuelven a dormir. 

Y mientras tanto, 
mientras transcurre la noche,
Las velas se funden, 
Enteras
en la mesilla de noche

Cuddle Cast #3 - Amapola & Mattmosphere present: The Cloud Room

We have been scouting for the perfect Sunday morning sets for quite a while already and while "Eigentlich heissen wir Klaus" & "Mattmosphere" have been steady suppliers of them for us, we also developed the idea of asking befriended artists to record one hour of music, to which they like to stay in bed with a loved one.

It's an intimate ask, but most of them said yes.

Introducing the 'Pisco Sour' by Limara, a UK-based DJ and producer whose melodic and quirky sound has captivated the electronic music scene. Known for his dedication to the craft over the hype, Limara’s releases on esteemed labels like Anjunadeep, This Never Happened, and All Day I Dream have earned him underground acclaim. Supported by industry heavyweights like Lee Burridge and John Digweed, Limara’s fresh and exciting DJ sets blend deep house, organic grooves, and progressive tones.

The Pisco Sour, a classic cocktail with roots in Peru and Chile, mirrors Limara's blend of tradition and innovation. Pisco, a clean and aromatic brandy distilled from floral grapes, has a rich history dating back to the 1500s. Initially popularized in South America and later appearing on New York menus in the 1960s, the Pisco Sour gained significant traction during the cocktail renaissance of the early 2000s.

This mix by Limara contains lots of exclusives and unreleased gems, showcasing his evolving sound and innovative production techniques. Each track is carefully crafted to take listeners on a journey through deep house, organic grooves, and progressive tones, reflecting Limara’s unique ability to blend the traditional with the contemporary. Prepare to be immersed in a world of melodic enchantment and rhythmic sophistication.
