+ 5 more tracks on the full album

The Cold Busted label showcases their international bona fides with a collaborative album involving two producers separated by a half-world’s distance. From one side of the globe comes Jenova 7, known to friends as Michael J. Sirois, a multimedia artist from Boston and a member of trip-hop trio Wax Triptych (with Mononome and Mr. Moods). Then all the way over in Ulyanovsk, Russia is the young producer Eddie Shinn, author of the acclaimed Cold Busted debut The Plastic Jam as well as The Third Is Not Superfluous, his album in cahoots with Step. Now, A Cosmic Safari takes this international concept and launches it skyward … the album’s songs take place in an intergalactic sound-space. There’s “Flying Cabs”, which envisions a future that’s funky and bright, with hip hop beats, chiming Rhodes piano, squelchy synth lines, and trippy guitar riffs. A “Cosmic Girl” is encountered, loose and free, with an ’80s style rhythm embellished by cowbell percussion and floating melodies. “Intergalactic Noir” could signal a new eponymous genre, displaying a distinctive drum beat underneath funky flutes, cool keys, and the sound of space pals getting down. These are just three of A Cosmic Safari’s eleven tracks, and Jenova 7 & Eddie Shinn have delivered a full set that is out of this world. 

.
Kid Loco - "Great piece of work."
All Good Funk Alliance - "Dope stuff as always. 'Cosmic Girl' and 'Flying Cabs' both got that bump … so tight."
Belabouche (Midnight Riot / DiscoDat) - "Good solid tunes … will play!"
Inland Knights - "This is sounding sweet."
Quincy Jointz (Timewarp) - "Damn … groovy and fresh. I dig it."
Mason Rothert (Below Zero Radio Show) - “Love this vibe!”
Jon Fugler (Fluke / XLNT Radio Show) - "'Neon Garden' is a little gem, very easy on the ear and with shades of the late, great Mike Kandel, which is no bad thing."
DJ Love (Stellar Music) - "I like the abstract feel … the beats are inventive and unique."
Zac Love (Belmar Sol) - "Well done. Genre-pushing space beats that keep the listener interested from front to back."
Adam Warped (Whiskey Pickle / Strange Days) - "I'm definitely feeling the funky cosmic weirdness."
Double-D (Funky Fresh Radio Show) - "Rockin' fresh."
Marc Lacasse (sHIFT Radio Show) - "Cosmic and moody futuristic funk surrounds each track with a positive vibe."
Clairvo (Tilos Radio, Hungary) - "The proper amount of hip-hop, proper amount of experimentalism, proper amount of soul … this EP has got a unique balance to it."
Aja Allsop (Ketch A Vibe Radio Show) - "Totally fills the need for the cosmic wanting!"

A Cosmic Safari

Jenova 7 & Eddie Shinn - A Cosmic Safari (Cold Busted)

Secret in the Dark (Juan Maclean Remix)

Izo FitzRoy returns with her second single ‘Here I Come’.

Giving the original a 70’s groove makeover is esteemed beat maker – Flevans. With Fender Rhodes leading the way, funk-jazz guitar licks and horns galore he flips the song on its head and turns the soul up to 11.

Here I Come (Flevans Remix)

Will You Be Mine (Smoove Retouch)

We are proud to present you a compilation of the best tracks of the Athens based Trip Hop duo The Blue Square.
Limited ed. 12" vinyl in red or black colour: http://bit.ly/2fo1wbQ
All platforms: http://smarturl.it/thebluesquare

Conceived in Athens, Greece, The Blue Square is the duo of Radim (Vasilis Sourais) and Radical (Christos Volotas) who have come together with a love of noir atmospheres, old spy films, and dusted, jazzy beats. Since their beginnings in 2010, The Blue Square have been making waves with their explorations into instrumental hip hop, nu-jazz, and trip hop, and earned slots DJ’ing alongside Wax Tailor, ASM - A State Of Mind, Bonobo, and Gramatik. Paul Cheeba of Morcheeba is also a fan, premiering a track by The Blue Square on the widely listened to Trip Hop Nation podcast. 

The pair’s self-titled debut album – and their first release on vinyl – has been issued by Greek label Melting Records and delivers heaps of cinematic vibes and crucial rhythms. The Blue Square have expressed a desire to create ‘soundtracks for imaginary films’ and their album certainly fits the bill. “Believe’, the opening cut, quickly sets the tone with a heavy lounge feel wrapped in vibraphone melodies, saxophone riffs, and classic beats. “Tic Toc” mashes together a number of styles and sounds, featuring desert guitars, vintage keys, and hip hop vocal drops over some seriously dope drums. “Mama”, with vocalist Esterina, showcases the diversity of the crew, as it’s a deliciously jazzy vocal number that transports the listener to a nostalgic club scene while firmly rooted in its contemporary base. 

These are just a few highlights from the eleven track album, and the different moods and sounds provide an infectious ‘sonic film’ from The Blue Square’s imagination. Dive in and drift away.

Brazilian Compilation Series Vol.2

Joutro Mundo - Nao Force

mini-album soon

years ago when i had a chance
i couldve held your hand
but i was young and then i blew every circumstance
yet i still think
i dream of

dancing, dancing
ohh with you, with you
and maybe even share a drink or two while i tell you the truth
that i dont even care what this is for
as long as i get to share the floor
with you with you
with you

in my thoughts and dreams
i do a lil swayin away with you
even if i know it'll never realize

maybe one day i'll wake up
maybe someday it'll be true
maybe that day i'll be
i will be

dancing, dancing
ohh with you, with you
and maybe even love you a little more
while we tango across the floor
and i dont even know when i'll see you again
but i'll just keep living this dream til the end
with you with you
with you

dancing
