Freddie Joachim - Wake Up (feat. Othello)

The highly anticipated Funky DL tribute album "February - A Rest In Beats Tribute To The Sounds of J Dilla & Nujabes" begins here with two tracks lifted from the full project.

Untitled / Fantastic originally appeared on Slum Village's 'Fantastic Voyage Vol 2" album and sees DL remake this joint applying a similar floating resonance as the original. The drums pound and DL's production weaves in and out of where J Dilla originally left the track. A smooth vocal accompaniment is provided by Dukus Alemay which guides the track through it's almost 'intergalactic" feel. There is much contrast in DL's creativity here, as his version at times mirrors Dilla's original, and is at other times a stark contrast.


Sky is falling was originally a Nujabes-produced track featuring Mount Vernon's own C.L. Smooth. The 70's led soulful element to the original is not lost here in Funky DL's interpretation. The drums are smooth and crisp and the instrumentation takes on the magic of the original melodies. Dukus again with vocalist Lei-an contributes some beautiful and harmonic vocal chants for added groove and appreciation.

Both tracks showcase DL's ability to see beyond the original ideas and bring something new for listener to ensure a revived listening experience.


Be sure to check the full-length interview included in this release where DL discusses his thoughts and feelings about the forthcoming "February" album.

I am very happy that I've been able to work with Alfa Mist on this one. It's the third and last single before my new album "Transit" releases on June 14th and probably my favourite track off of it. We recorded all of it together in Alfa's studio in June 2018 except for the violin outro which I later recorded at my place.

FloFilz' third album for Melting Pot Music is deeply inspired by the UK jazz and hip-hop scene. ''Transit'' features collaborations with Alfa Mist, Barney Artist, Biig Piig and K, Le Maestro.

''Transit'' will be available digital and on LP (limited gatefold edition includes a 20-page photo booklet by Robert Winter).

Linernotes

''Jazz (We've Got)'' was the title of the second single from A Tribe Called Quest's iconic album ''The Low End Theory''. It was released in 1991, the same year FloFilz was born. Similar to Tribe FloFilz resurrects jazz for a new generation. He has been doing this for a while now and is pretty good at it, as you might know if you are familiar with his previous works “Metronom” and ''Cenário''.

In 2019 things have changed. Today jazz is not only about diggin' old records and learning about Bird and Trane. Jazz is very much alive and the city of London has become one of its epicenters. The UK jazz scene is happening because it is deeply connected with hip-hop, soul and club music. A perfect setting for FloFilz. Over the last 18 months, he has collected serious Eurostar miles, heading from Aachen to London - going to gigs, hanging out with musical allies and recording new material.

This is why he calls his new album ''Transit''. Through 18 tracks FloFilz translates the current London vibe in his very own style and fashion and I dare to say that ''Transit'' may be the best album he has treated us with so far.
