'Rising Haze' is the outcome of a meeting of styles, born from 2 producers based in the UK.

"After a brief chat we bounced ideas back and forth over the internet, building and sculpting until it organically reached a point where we both said: That's it!

We're stoked with the collaboration and delighted to share it with you via Laid Back."

The first single from Jason "ClassicBeatz" Minnis' upcoming album "Rumors of Royalty" out on October 28th.

<i>"Rumors of Royalty is an album that links my American roots to the African diaspora.  Soul, Funk, Gospel, Miami bass, Hip Hop and R&B have had a major impact on my life.  As a native of St. Petersburg, Florida and a long time resident of Brooklyn, NY, I wanted this album to reflect these various influences. The Boom Bap is a perfect reflection of the melting pot of styles."</i>

74 Miles Away - Brusseleiro

Bonus track from the "EARSHOT" EP out on Darker Than Wax on Oct 3rd 2013 on https://darkerthanwax.bandcamp.com/album/earshot-ep

MonkeyRobot is an eclectic producer duo made up of Brussels-based beatmakers Eric P. and LuiGi (or Eric Paquet and Louis Van De Leest). Their trademark - exploring the boundaries of soulful music between 90 and 120 bpm. With their illustrious background in hiphop and jazz, they join forces to delve into the future of beatmaking. Not surprising then, that their music has been revered, having the privilege of releasing under labels such as Jazzy Sport, Bastard Jazz, Brownswood, and now, Darker Than Wax.

“Earshot" has a lovely intro in High Five, which kicks off with a wonky bassline before flipping into a total fusion workout. This immediately sets the tone for the Ep. "Dumpster Diving" takes over with a House mode, one which would prove to be extremely useful in getting a floor started. Beau on the other hand, provides a shade of contrast, with Glaper-esque keys which illuminate the journey of the album. The energy picks up again with the ethnic percussions and half step breakdown of Shango, showcasing the multi-faceted side of this duo, while "Bright" morphs into a late night House workout once again, this time employing slight Techno elements in its composition. And finally, capping off the Ep is “Generation”, a slick dub blend – the oscillating synths blanketed over groovy basslines are ingeniously comforting and catchy, ending the album on an exulting note.

A couple of week ago, while attending the <a href="http://ldbk.eu/irf">International radio festival in Zurich</a>, I had the chance to meet Mari and Akira producers of the <a href="http://www.j-wave.co.jp/original/modaista/">Modaista</a> show on <a href="http://www.j-wave.co.jp/">J-Wave FM</a> (Tokyo) for a short interview. 

They also asked me to recommend them one track and I really wanted to introduce the sound of 74 Miles Away to their audience so I picked "<a href="http://soundcloud.com/laidback/74-miles-away-seven-four">Seven Four</a>" out of the <a href="http://ldbk.eu/compilation">LDBK compilation</a>.

The show also features three other IRF participants:

And I remember you each day when I wake up
Been so long since we parted ways
I’m still ashamed of what a fool I was
It’s been 14 years and 15 days

I can’t forget nor can I ever forgive
Could I have done more to make you live?
I can’t recall if we finished the film
But to sorrow I try never to give in

It won’t be long
Won’t be long
So be … 
(x3)
It won’t be long
Won’t be long
So be strong

I hold on to your touch; I know I made you laugh
You left me enough love to light my way
I know that no one here was built to last
But I hope you hear me when I pray

You sent me someone to show me what life could be
A love so kind by tragedy untouched
I count my blessings and I keep moving
Because I can only do so much

Ain’t nothing magic ‘bout three

Hey ee ya ah, hey ee ya aaaah
Hey ee ya ah ooh woah ooh woah

Down on me
The trouble i’m in
Yes it’s ugly as sin
I mean, ugly

Finding and deviating
Heart rate escalating
Don’t climb that tree
Unless you can make it down when there’s no one around
And live love lonely

Ain’t nothing magic bout
What’s magic bout
What’s magic bout three?
Oh tell me whats magic bout
Whats magic bout
What’s magic bout three?
Ain’t nothing thats magic bout
What’s magic bout
That’s magic bout three
Don’t tell me what’s magic bout
What’s magic bout
What’s magic bout three

Can’t say I wish I’d not met you
But how to forget you
Sure beats me
Passion that simmers and timezones that glimmer
So tempting…
Tempting…
So tempting…

-- About SLAM FUNK! --
After the success of the DUB! 7inch, Spanish producer based in Brussels Strand teams up once again with Laid Back radio and illustrator Oli-B for his new project SLAM FUNK! supported by the Lowriders Collective.

Another step into his exploration of black music, this record is Strand's maiden voyage into funk sounds from the 70s and 80s with an un*conservative spirit. SLAM FUNK! is not a look back to the past but a vision of what today and the future could be like. We are living difficult times and forecasts are not good. SLAM FUNK! is one of the many answers.

Swedish DJ and producer Devastate dropped his first full length album “Movement/Silence” on BBE records back in 2010. Some noteworthy collaborations include: Masta Ace, Ed O.G, J-Ro (Alkaholiks), Reks, Akrobatik, Termanology and many others. You can also find him on Mellow Madness II (Wax Poetics), On Display (Soularp Records) and the “Movement/Mixes” funk series on BBE Records. 
 
For this particular release  in collaboration with Laid Back, Devastate sets out to remix the soul brother himself, Mr. Pete Rock. Reinterpreting “the king of beats” is never easy task but Dev takes on the 2006 underground classic ”Revenge” with great confidence. Devastate flips the beat, staying true to the original, with a classic production formula. Thumping drums, heavy baseline and signature turntable acrobatics. The result definitely leaves your head nodding. Devastate is paying homage to Pete and sums it up in the outro scratches - “You know a learned from the greatest, Pete Rock to Jay Dee, Diggin In The Crates”.
