Did you know Singapore's best kept secret goes by the name of TAJ? Tim de Cotta (bass/vocals), Audrey Tengkey (piano, keys and synth) and Teo Jia Rong (drums) form the exciting contemporary Jazz trio TAJ.

Their forthcoming "The Astral Journey" EP will be released with local independent record label, Darker Than Wax. It's a cross pollination of beats, psychedelia, post-rock, breaks and everything it takes to please the discerning ears of contemporary Jazz fans.

We gratefully premiere the title track, which is by far the most organic piece of music on the EP. If you like Robert Glasper, you need to feast your ears on this fasho!

The EP comes out January 30th and includes remixes from Dutch producer Jaël and Cosa Nostra from Singapore.

Meet Boyan, a 23-year-old producer from Sofia, who's been making quite some noise lately. The Bulgarian beatmaker grew up playing the piano and singing in a choir. In 2009 he went on to obtain a degree in sound engineering and composing music.

The idea for the track "Monday Morning" came up on a sunny Monday morning, so it seems fitting to release it on (you guessed it) a Monday Morning.
FYI this one is a follow up to Boyan's previously released "Sunday Evening", which was presented to you by our friends over at @Infinitblog. Don't hesitate to click the 'Buy' button and snatch up a free download!

One of Amsterdam's hottest producers goes by the name of Jarreau Vandal. This 24-year-old producer came down to the Red Bull Studios Amsterdam for our 10th edition of Werk Space.
With some help from drummer extraordinair Richard Spaven, the Dutch Soulection representative created the track "Rooftops". This demo is available for free download and might get some additional vocals added in the near future.

Make sure to look out for Jarreau's upcoming "Suburb Superhero" EP and hit the REPOST button or leave a nice comment if you enjoy the music.

The artwork was done by a graphic designer from Rotterdam who goes by the name of Lucky Dubz. He recently got into tattooing and told us he wanted to tattoo artwork on pig skin for this edition. It’s not often you see cover art tattooed and then photographed now do you? Big shout out, we think it turned out incredibly dope.

20-year-old Sensi Sye represents the dirty South by way of Loon op Zand. His name is partly derived from the fact that he's quite a sensitive fellow. Sye is simply short for Simon.

We like people who aren't afraid to talk about feelings. For it is these same feelings that result into his spacey organic sound. Often inspired by nature.

Simon visited the Red Bull Studios Amsterdam this month and created something special for our Werk Space project. We talked about some personal stuff and he was intensely thrilled to take part. The new track titled "Jungle Rain" takes you on a little trip where you can hear what you would normally feel.

@104rog "Sidewalking" - featured on Pomo Presents: Tempo Dreams Vol 4 

The last couple of years have been huge for Pomo, going from a relatively obscure Canadian producer to releasing his debut EP on HW&W, remixing for the likes of Janet Jackson and Mark Ronson, producing “Am I Wrong?” on Anderson Paak’s debt album and touring the globe with Disclosure as their opening act. 

Bastard Jazz has commissioned Pomo to be next in line for the fourth volume of their "Tempo Dreams" compilation series, following on the heels of the acclaimed Soul Clap compiled Vol. 3. As with other Tempo Dreams records, Pomo has curated a slick and well polished album full of exclusive tracks from friends and collaborators such as Lindsay Lowend, Aloka, Exmag, Syre, Daniel Crawford, FVLCRVM and more.  Touching on the shimmering nudisco sound, plodding deep electronic vibes, funky instrumental hip-hop, and even a hint of drum’n’bass, Tempo Dreams Vol. 4 takes it’s rightful place in the series as one of the most forward thinking compilations showcasing emerging young talent.

10.4 Rog - Sidewalking

Flying lotus - between friends instrumental/// thundercat version

Wax Poetics Presents "Tawk Takeout: Tawk Tomahawk Remixed" by Melbourne, Australia soul group Hiatus Kaiyote.


When Queen of Just About Everything, Ms. Erykah Badu, delivers knowledge, you open yourself to receive. Which is why when she devoted 140 characters or less to Australian band Hiatus Kaiyote—her exact words were "Okay. I'm done. In love,"—it confirmed our strong sense that these guys were exceptionally special.

In a country where balls-to-the-floor AC/DC rock boasts a much fuller history than soulfully futuristic stylings, this seven-piece from the east coast city of Melbourne is an anomaly. Hiatus Kaiyote’s uniqueness comes not only from their surroundings, but also their capacity for a sound rich in its understanding of soul, R&amp;B, and jazz.

Lead singer/songwriter Nai Palm was raised on the sincerity of artists like Wonder and Franklin, which she funnels into one of the most naturally arresting voices we’ve heard (check this <a href="http://youtu.be/FwLU_PXheuo" target="_blank">cover of "My Cherie Amor"</a> from her NYC debut over the weekend). Her current U.S. trip as ambassador for the band has gained Hiatus Kaiyote a luminary list of new fans and friends including the Roots, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Jean Grae, Pharoahe Monch, the Brainfeeder crew, and more.

Word of Hiatus Kaiyote has found its way to the U.K. as well. Right now the band is enjoying the attention of Gilles Peterson, who selected their self-released EP Tawk Tomahawk as his Album of the Week. The timing has worked well for us too, as Wax Poetics cordially presents the accompanying remix album, Tawk Takeout.

Twelve producers tackle Hiatus Kaiyote originals, grappling with the stems and unfolding them into various forms. Mark de Clive-Lowe contributes a wonderfully spirited version of "Malika," which sits beside interpretations by Shafiq Husayn, KCRW’s Anthony Valadez, and more.

Listen to the album in full below, and <a href="http://hiatuskaiyote.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">download it for free</a> via Hiatus Kaiyote’s Bandcamp  page.
