A dedication towards freedom in terms of producing and making music including putting the focus on that first feeling & expression of sound. The project’s main focus is freedom of writing and making songs that isn’t followed by rules operated by algorithms and what’s popular – A fresh approach of having a good time while being innovative and letting your creative side flow free. Smokers Lounge is the second compilation Ninetofive has done during the 10 years of releasing music. A thing we’ve spoken a lot about is the environment around you when being creative and what outcome the track will have when you’re fully in the zone to compose music.

Max I Million - Switch The Riddim

Mixed by: Create & Devastate
All tracks produced by: Max I Million

Purchase cassette: https://www.inserttapes.com/product/maxtape2/

"Maxtape II" is the long awaited powerhouse sequel to Max I Million´s 2010 release "The Maxtape". It boasts exclusive material, aswell a selection of the Swedish producers prime material released over the past decade and features Hip Hop legends such as C.L. Smooth, Chuck D, Edo G, Bishop Lamont and J-Ro to name a few. 

The major difference is this composition is elegantly put together as a seamless DJ mix by the duo Create & Devastate - and released physically on cassette in association with Insert Tapes!

The story begins 10 years ago when DJ Devastate (R.I.P) founded Counterweight Records, in close collaboration with Max. Enthusiastically, the two started working on the project, which abruptly came to an end with Dev´s tragic passing in 2018. In the years following, Max I Million has carried the torch, putting out work continuously to honor the label´s original vision and keeping the legacy alive. 

When contemplating how to materialize "Maxtape II", Max finally got the idea to bring Dev´s old partner DJ Create on board. He picked up where DJ Devastate left off and the rest is soon-to-be history!

With exquisite cover art design by Jonas Hilmersson, one of the originators of Counterweight Records, this mixtape embodies the expression "Coming full circle". Let the tape roll!

the Legacy

BMB SpaceKid - The ''Legacy'' (Sampler)

Peace everyone! Been a minute since I dropped a full beat tape like this and it's one of my favorites (in quite awhile) - This is def for the "beat heads" and is a perfect backdrop for daily activities, or inspiration for a cypher, etc. FREE DL. Hope you all dig it!

For this one I flipped a bunch of joints composed by "Agent X". Super dope music maker - the songs often sound like real songs instead of just loops for beat makers to flip. If you into digging records but hate most samples packs (like me) def check out his collection. Everything used in this beat tape is available to the public.

Note: Some songs may disappear, be used in future releases, change, etc

As always, hit me up if you have any questions, suggestions, curious about a track, etc.

Available on all DSPs next month

No Past, No Future (Full Beat Tape with Agent-X)

Over the years, KLIM has consistently produced uptempo tracks imbued with the characteristic sounds reminiscent of the iconic SP-1200 and MPC 2000XL. The warm and easily recognizable tones from this Kyiv-based producer are showcased in this video set. Please let us know your thoughts on this style and sound, and if you'd be interested in collaborating on a release with him.

The majority of the tracks in this video are unreleased and produced by KLIM so a tracklist is not possible at the moment until he decides what way to go (might keep them unreleased) /Luciano.

Hey everyone,

I've been a little quiet on the mix front recently as I've been playing out pretty regularly, with a few charity gigs and a monthly residency at Jordy's Pizzeria in Nantwich. Last month, I was also invited back to play at Workinonit at The Hip Hop Chip Shop in Manchester. My first appearance there was last October's MF DOOM tribute and I released an extended version of the mix afterwards.  Check it out here if you haven't already.

Incidentally, this has had to be released on my Soundcloud as Mixcloud banned the mix due to it containing more than 3 tracks by the same artist within the marathon 3.5-hour mix.  Big up to Soundcloud for being so amazing!!

I've decided that I'd do the same this time as my latest appearance there was to play a 2-hour tribute to the one and only, J Dilla. The 2-hour set has now been extended to 3.5-hours and again, the mix is jam packed with all things Dilla from samples, remixes, covers, production & more. I wanted to get this out right after the set but I’ve had a crazy few weeks here and have only just got time to record it!!

As ever, a huge thanks to all the Workinonit crew, alongside Ozzie & the team at The Hip Hop Chip Shop for such an amazing event & thanks for letting me get on and close the event!! Great to catch up with all the homies and the rest of the good people who came out.  Massive thanks to the guys for asking me to be the official DJ for Workinonit too!!  I'm still blown away by this and it meant the world to me!!

It’s the second time I’ve played at The Hip Hop Chip Shop now and I absolutely love playing there!! Also, using my own gear too always things so much easier. Nice to have my trusty Technics 1210s, Pioneer DJMS-7, Serato DJ Pro & Phase. Always bulletproof and makes things so much easier!! I do realise why people switch to controllers though. All this gear gets heavy when you get to my grand old age!!

Anyway, I hope you dig the mix and I always respond to the comments, etc.  If you could share this as far and wide as possible we can spread the word about Workinonit and the music of Jay Dee!!

Also, if you don't follow me on socials, here's the link to pretty much everything. It would be great to link up so that I can say thanks for all the support.

Thanks again & let me know what you think of the mix when it does drop!!
