Jazz Rap Metropolis Danz?

Out Now On Cold Busted&#13;
------------------
1. Sweet Memories (feat. Awon &amp; DJ Damented)&#13;
2. Sweet Memories (Instrumental)&#13;
&#13;
Cold Busted returns to familiar label artist Poldoore, born Tom Schillebeeckx, to release his new single “Sweet Memories,” featuring distinguished emcee Awon and DMC 2012 Team World Champion turntablist DJ Damented (of The Mixfitz). Based out of Belgium, Poldoore started producing at an early age and eventually his potential was realized by Cold Busted’s offer to release the debut L.A.X. EP. The pairing only grew stronger from there through many projects and compilation appearances that garnered much praise. Poldoore’s sound is about good vibes, creating warm atmospheres that blend funk, soul, lounge, and reggae with punchy drum breaks. Those are the building blocks for “Sweet Memories,” an effective standalone instrumental with lazy horns floating atop airy guitars and fluttering keys combining to create a laid-back atmosphere while fat bass and snappy drums work the neck out. The reminiscing rhymes of Awon, a figure in the new emerging ‘jazz hop’ scene, flow rhythmically while DJ Damented’s scratch skills add a next level vocal chop to the beat. Deciding to include this one in the crate should be easy, much like the cut’s vibe. &#13;

All Good Funk Alliance - “Nice!” DJ BobaFatt (Rough Trade / Soundcrash) - “Yeah, this is nice. Look forward to hearing more.” Quincy Jointz (Timewarp) - “Beautiful and groovy. I love it much.” Mojo Rising (Cold Busted / F.A.M.I.L.Y.) - “A feel good hip hop track … great groove, smooth flow.” Robin Parris (Parris &amp; Vanucci / Dancefloor Outlaws) - “Great stuff! Can’t wait to lay down these blissful laid back beats at the next beachside session.” Irregular Disco Workers - “Love this!” Double-D (Funky Fresh Radio Show) - “Oh … some real hip hop in here. Word!” mister T (Cube Radio / Cold Busted) - “The instrumental is a hip hop classic … great!” MadameFLY (mmRadio / BeatConcious) - “I’ve been loving Poldoore this year, but this duo provides a different vibe from the smokey soul based tracks I love. It’s all about the uplift, from the sweet melody to the positive emcee work of Awon. Refreshing stuff!” Jamie Topham (CD Pool) - “Old school cool …” DJ Pelau (Is The Spice Of Life) - “Solid. Groove tight, flow decent, and the atmosphere is ideal. Keep it going.” Andy Wilson (ibiza Sonica FM / Balearia) - “Sweet memories and a sweet groove. Love this … proper BBQ beats.” Renegades of Jazz (Wass Records / Mojo Club) - “That’s some real nice hip hop.” Clairvo (Tilos Radio FM90.3, Hungary) - “Yeah, this is a musical meadow in the big city noise!” Joan Ribas (Ibiza Soulstice Music / Cafe del Mar) - “Wow … love it!” Deadbeat Disco Radio Show - “Digging the instrumental vibe here. It’s like an aural covering of sunshine and warmth in an otherwise very chilly Yorkshire … very nice indeed!” DJ Nova (Rodon FM) - “Really cool, reminiscing of good times and vibes. Sweet keys, warm horns, old school beats, chilly guitars, and summer breeze. Poldoore doesn’t know it but this is made to be played next summer, 2014, on Las Salinas, La Isla Blanca’s beach.” &#13;

Poldoore - Sweet Memories (Cold Busted)

The initial thought that came to mind in the process of making “Blackcurrent Jazz 2” was to create a landscape of ideas that capture the truest essence of Jazz but that also embodied the purest and most authentic hip-hop feel. The original Blackcurrent Jazz album (released in 2001) was a great piece of work but for me was more a mesh of beats and breaks and sometimes with tracks that didn’t even lend to Jazz at all. This time around I wanted every single song to scream JAZZ!!! But still using a combination of Jazz breaks that give off varying vibes.

I wanted this album to be more polished, more distinguished and more discernable than 10 years ago. Smoother, more intricate and ultimately more of a thought through process to it. So I set about the production process which I knew would be huge, because I wanted to use additional beats for 20 second interludes to be used in between each main track, which then ultimately doubled my production load. I also knew that the main selections all had to musically jump out at me and I wasn’t going to start writing until I had found all the right beats that made me feel as if I have the right ingredients for a classic album.

And then it started. Hours of sampling, cutting, chopping, filtering, and pitch shifting, mixing and then mixing again. Then came the writing, recording and editing, which for me is a very lengthy and meticulous process. And finally after over 6 months work came “Blackcurrent Jazz 2: The Gold Reflection” subtitled to pay dues and respect to the golden era of hip-hop (the 90’s).

Lyrics:
As I wake up, I thank the Lord for another day,
Even if the skies are gray and the rain’s pouring,
All it means is my drum machine’s working overtime before we're out European touring,
I see the numbers and they're soaring big,
Hard to ignore me when they're singing all my choruses,
Or do you rate me when I'm whipping in some foreign whips?
Sometimes I hate the culture,
But really, I'm a fanatic,
Clashing with gatekeepers, pushing the average,
Never pushing the envelope,
That’s why I come equipped with the monologues,
To let 'em know what hip hop was before the avocado toast type rappers that got deals,
Not dissing the music, but the ones who’re fabricating the mass appeal,
Sample my feels through your MPC, the people have spoken, the niche is still alive,
I’m resurrecting what’s been crucified.

I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me when they're singing all my choruses,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me, I’m a fanatic, wake up, wake up,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Sample my feels through your MPC,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me when they're singing all my choruses.

The people love me 'cause I rap with technique,
Producers hate me 'cause I often be rocking my own beats,
Either way, the art form is lost in a cold sleep, deep slumber,
Fee-fi-fo-fum, you’re numbers in the system,
Be he alive or be he dead, they're gonna take your money bread,
And your royalties too, you can do it on your own, my homie, I'm living proof,
I'm not perfect, that's true, my attitude through the roof,
I’m acting like papa dukes, I’m trying to be better,
Better than blood curses,
That's why I'm aiming for the stars until I break surface,
Flying so deep that all the pain's worthless,
My future seeds will never know the way I prayed nervous,
More than music,
I use the mic to maneuver my broken fuses,
Was in the mood for something different so I moved away,
My advice: if you're drowning, don't stay fixed in one place.
I'm in outer space.

I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me when they're singing all my choruses,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me, I’m a fanatic, wake up, wake up,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Sample my feels through your MPC,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
Hard to ignore me when they're singing all my choruses.

I see the numbers and they’re soaring big,
I see the numbers and they’re soaring big.
