For the tenth anniversary of the French label https://soundcloud.com/popcornrecords , it was impossible not to make a somewhat special record. That’s why they chose the compilation format, because they wanted a lot of artists on this important and symbolic project, regulars of the label of course, but also newcomers. Bringing together 3 generations of producers, from legend to youngsters, they were all welcome.

Stream 'Blue Nite' EP : 

Simon F.R.E.S.H. creates instrumental music pieces by fusing the ancient arts of the boombap-era with lush electronic sounds. Starting out as a mostly local beatmaker in his hometown of Aarhus, he previously worked in the underground under the "WhoGotDrumz"-alias. His beats have been blessed by a number of Scandinavian rappers such as Liud, Sam Zne, Brun and Promoe, but under the new name "Simon F.R.E.S.H." he is now ready to let the beats tell stories on their own.

The Blue Nite EP is a culmination of a long living dream of creating a diverse and yet coherent instrumental hiphop project. Drawing on inspirations ranging from Samurai Champloo to Submerse, Simon F.R.E.S.H. seeks to put the listener in a state where time is suspended as the music seamlessly flows between styles.

Simon F.R.E.S.H. - The Drifter (Intro)

We are very excited to premiere the forthcoming single from London-based Japanese artist Anchorsong. The MPC wizard enchants us on “Remedy”, weaving jazz elements with udu drum loops. Primed for both dancefloor damage and cerebral elevation,

“Remedy” is due for release on April 20, ahead of upcoming fourth album ‘Mirage’ (out Friday 21st May via Tru Thoughts), a record that creates delphic landscapes conjured from the mind of the highly-feted producer: Masaaki Yoshida. 

Speaking of the new single, Anchorsong says: “‘Remedy’ is the first song I completed for this session. I started with no plan whatsoever in mind and just let my imagination run. The track has all the key elements of this album, which are wind instruments, choirs and subtle non-western touches represented by the udu drums in this case.”

“Remedy” follows on from the auditory-odyssey of “New World” and “Tunis Dream”, a track inspired by a hazy night in the Tunisian capital. Both singles have seen a wave of support from Clash, Complete Music Update, Quetic, Lauren Laverne, Tom Ravenscroft, Don Letts (BBC 6Music), Jamz Supernova (BBC Radio 1Xtra / Selector Radio), Rob da Bank, Tina Edwards (WWFM) and many more.

‘Mirage’ marks the return of Anchorsong and adds to a remarkable string of albums from the unabashedly talented producer including ‘Cohesion’ and ‘Ceremonial’. Anchorsong’s debut album ‘Chapters’ kickstarted his partnership with Tru Thoughts and propelled the modern traditionalist onto the world stage.

Anchorsong has also become renowned for his live show, either solo or with a string quartet. So we can’t wait to hear these new songs performed live when that’s a possibility again.

Complicated was the first song written for Not Yourself's pleasant, nostalgia-centric upcoming EP, "Sessions Vol. 3". Instead of featuring standard lofi beats qualities, the track takes on a unique identity by featuring acoustic drums, bass, and background guitar. It serves as the perfect intro to the whole EP with its care-free vibe and human touch, which carries throughout the rest of the project.
