Blue Agave

Blue Agave (NYC Session)

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).

EasTeRN NiGhTs: Echoes of the Heart
by AmmaR IbRaHiM

Under the moonlit skies of the East, every heartbeat becomes a melody.
This album is a journey through the emotions that unite us all  love, longing, joy, and silence. Each track blends cinematic soundscapes with the spirit of Sharqi and classical Middle Eastern music, weaving the pulse of ancient nights with the rhythm of today’s soul.

From the shimmering coasts of the Nile to the lantern-lit streets of old cities, EasTeRN NiGhTs: Echoes of the Heart invites listeners to feel the warmth, passion, and nostalgia carried by the wind of Eastern melodies.

Let this music guide you — to remember, to dance, to dream, and to heal.

William Florelle - As The Sun Sets (STW Premiere)

We've been blessed with over one hour of vinyl recorded in Kiev, Ukraine by our very own @klim-beats-1 . He has been searching in his collection for his absolute favorite records and then put together a storyline with all of them just for us to hear some good soul, funk & jazzy songs. You can probably hear in some cases it's also material he's been using in his beats that we've released on the catalog. 

I'll give you a little hint as well, on song number two - it has been included in his new album titled 'Pieces Of Summer' and it will be available on September 2. You can already pre-order the album on 12" vinyl here. (Limited Edition Clear White)
