SSIO FT. NATE57 & TELLY TELLZ - Illegal, Legal, Egal (Hade Illegal Remix)

Stream, download & vinyl LP: https://melting-pot-music.lnk.to/closedistance

New album by pioneering German beatmaker FloFilz. On ‘Close Distance’, the LoFi-turned-HiFi producer blends Hip-Hop inspired beats with Contemporary Jazz, Alt R&B and a little Rap. Featuring Alfa Mist, Blue Lab Beats, Jerome Thomas, KeepVibesNear, Summers Sons & C.Tappin, Dal & Hunter Rose. ‘Close Distance’ is his fourth album for Melting Pot Music. 

Close Distance literally means “near in space or time” (or “nah dran”, as we say in German). The 16 songs on ‘Close Distance’ came to life over the past two years. Many sketches were birthed at FloFilz's old home studio in Aachen. Some songs were made from scratch in London, where Flo did sessions with UK Jazz supremos Alfa Mist and Blue Lab Beats at their studios. One was recorded in a kitchen in Streatham, where rap duo Summers Sons and pianist C.Tappin reside.

More sessions were already in planning when lockdown kicked in and travelling was no longer an option. Around the same time, Flo was about to move from Aachen to Berlin which he eventually did in November 2020. Once installed, he started sharing beats and files out of his makeshift studio in Moabit. Beat folders were sent to London where two of our favourite new Alt R&B vocalists – Jerome Thomas and KeepVibesNear – live. Another one went to Dartmoor where the Jazz/Hip-Hop trio Dal added their magic touch while Hunter Rose processed her sultry vocals in Cape Town - 12 flying hours away from Berlin.

The album artwork has been created by Indonesian illustrator Fatchurofi, who caught FloFilz's attention through his work for everybody’s favourite band Khruangbin. Taking influences from Japanese Ukiyo-e art, Fatchurofi is adding a zen-like clarity (and tranquility) that resonates very well with the album.

It is no exaggeration to say that FloFilz has not only created another inspiring album with Close Distance but one that demonstrates how music can close the distance which we all have experienced (and still do) in a beautiful way.

Listen, download & vinyl LP: https://melting-pot-music.lnk.to/moonsofjupiter

Intergalactic Jazz fused with Hip-Hop. Think Nujabes and Pete Rock remix a Lonnie Liston Smith album arranged by David Axelrod. We realise that's far too much name-dropping for two sentences, but it describes the direct influences and vision of UK born producer Rob Waite aka Daylight Robbery. Rob grew up in London and Frankfurt before moving to Brooklyn, New York where ‘Moons of Jupiter’ – his first album for MPM – was recorded. "The sonic identity of the music is my homage to all the amazing Jazz fusion records that came out between ‘71 and ‘74, fused with a 90’s Hip-Hop vibe I struggle to get away from. With the help of some amazing musician friends, I was able to move beyond loop-based sampling techniques and take a step towards a more free flowing Jazz focused energy.” 

The album title ‘Moons of Jupiter’ refers to the 80 known moons of Jupiter that form a satellite system called the Jovian system. 12 of these moons are visited throughout the listening experience, starting in the light, and progressively moving into darkness. The artwork has been created by Cologne-based illustrator Giza One.

Isatta Sheriff and Koralle strike again! ‘Will They Try’ is the third single from the upcoming EP ‘Eat The Kiwi Skin’ by the East London MC and the Bologna-based beat smith. Through her purposeful lyrics which Isatta has become renowned for, we witness her poetically reflect on her battles to get to this point in her musical career. 

“This is the most important track on the EP as it addresses the exploitation of Black women in hip hop, and the exploration of hip hop in general. We have started to talk about the countless Black female singers and songwriters in dance and hip hop music who go uncredited in the U.K, and I wanted to extend the conversation to Black female rappers and explore the racial politics and misogynoir connected to this. 
People often ask the same questions regarding women’s position in hip hop, and I ask ‘will they try to understand’ the full scope of the problem and then DO something, because the conversation is stuck and needs to progress.” - Isatta

Produced by Koralle, the soul-filled production combines elements of Jazz and Hip-Hop, with the saxophone colliding perfectly with her lyrics to allow the story to unfold. The artwork was created by Colombian illustrator SagaUno who also did the covers for The Silhouettes Project (2020) and Koralle's Beat Kiosk (2021). 

‘Eat The Kiwi Skin’ will be available digitally and on LP (including instrumental edits of all tracks for the beat lovers out there) on September 23rd.

Isatta’s track record includes collabos with Flying Lotus, Oddisee, Arrested Development and Athletic Progression. She is hosting a radio show, runs her own label Doctored Sound and works as a music writer. Koralle is one of the most in demand European beatmakers with a sound rooted in jazz and boom-bap. Since signing with MPM in 2019, he has released three albums and accumulated more than 30 million streams. The duo’s first collabo ‘Laid Back’ was released in 2021 as part of Koralle’s album Fonografie.

Betty Ford Boys - Shut Up

Introducing Sola Rosa!

Kiwi soul is on the rise and we are happy to welcome Sola Rosa as our latest signing from down under. Back home in NZ, the band, lead by mastermind Andrew Spraggon is already a household name with their trademark mix of soul, reggae, hip-hop and whatnot. Call it modern day roots music if you like. Extremely well produced and catchy as a Holland/Dozier/Holland tune. Occasionally backed by a string quartet but with creaking basslines at the low ends. Mic duties are handled by an international ensemble of singers, chatters and MC's like Spikey Tee, Iva Lamkum, Bajka and Serocee.

On July 29, we release the first single „Turn Around“ featuring the wonderful Iva Lamkum. The album „Get It Together“ follows on September 30.

We celebrate the good news with a free download of the instrumental title track of the album. Enjoy and share how you like!

With her debut album ‘Pairing Mode‘, Ray and her co-producer Samon Kawamura created a landmark in German-Asian culture, scored over 37 million streams and garnered widespread acclaim, with praise pouring in from Jamz Supernova, WDR Cosmo, and Spiegel Online.

Berlin-based producer, composer and instrumentalist Leon Pock, formerly known as beatmensch5000, introduces his new project ODYLE. ‘Better Days’ featuring newcomer fraen is the fifth single. 

ODYLE’s upcoming debut EP ‘18 Months Of(f)’ (29.11.24) was crafted during the challenging years of 2022-2023, a period marked by significant personal obstacles. After contracting COVID-19, he faced a prolonged battle with Long COVID (ME/CFS), which severely impacted his daily life and creative process. Despite enduring persistent fatigue, ODYLE continued to create music, albeit with great difficulty. The experience demanded perseverance, patience, and resilience, which ultimately shaped the EP's thematic superstructure and creative journey. The ambivalence of time—both its slow, arduous passage during recovery and its relentless, fleeting nature—became a central theme in the music. 

Particularly influential for his first solo project is the live jazz and hip-hop format Black Bear Basement (sax, keys, vibraphone/perc, turntables), which he founded in 2016 and with which, in addition to a sold-out tour, he was also represented at several established festivals. The band's sound concept, in which sophisticated production skills and the organic timbre of the four instruments result in fully developed beat compositions, also forms ODYLE's unique body of sound.

The EP also showcases the talents of R&B singer DALEE as well as award-winning jazz saxophonist Phillip Dornbusch and bassist Viktor Velinov, both key figures in Berlin's flourishing jazz and new soul scene.

Leon Pock has been a pivotal figure in Berlin's music scene for several years, contributing as a producer, composer, and songwriter across both German and English-speaking circles. As a pianist and musical director, he has toured extensively throughout Germany and Europe. Under his former alias beatmensch5000, Leon has released multiple albums and numerous singles, collaborating with a diverse array of artists.

Manchester-based Producer Pitch 92 graces us with a fresh take on “Submerge”, his recent collaborative album with Jerome Thomas, presenting a reimagined selection of its instrumentals. “Pop - Beat Edit” is the first single.

With production embodying golden age swing and soul despite his youth, Pitch 92 is etching his own path into the modern hip hop landscape. Born in Dublin in 1992, Pitch grew up in Germany and Switzerland where the sounds of Madlib and Dilla fired his neurons and heart. Surrounded by creativity in the guise of close friends ASM (A State Of Mind), the crew got him to pick up his first MPC at age 12, graduating from the SP 303 sampler he was already familiar with.

Pitch moved to the UK in 2008 and quickly embedded himself into the Manchester hip hop scene. He met The Mouse Outfit and began playing MPC live along with the band – before long, he was a core element in the studio, his jazzy boom bap the nucleus of the first two Mouse Outfit albums, Escape Music (2013) and Step Steadier (2015).

Producing and touring Europe with the Mice for seven years, Pitch departed in 2017 to pursue a solo career. He has since released with renowned labels High Focus and First Word Records.

Coco Elane (they/she) & Lucid Liebe (she/her) share their new joint single ‘Safe Space’, blending queer, spaced-out R&B with elements of jazz and a touch of kitsch. Lucy aka Lucid Liebe, a Berlin-based multi-instrumentalist, producer and member of jazz trio Bokoya, crafted evocative, dynamic arrangements around Coco’s haunting vocals and viola recordings. Together, they create genre-fluid, soulful soundscapes that feel raw, intimate, and transformative. 

Coco describes the track as a reflection on instant chemistry and the tension between desire and hesitation. "It’s about feeling an undeniable connection but holding back be-cause of insecurity or uncertainty," they explain.

For Lucid, the song’s creation was a journey of persistence. "By version six, Coco thought it was done, but I wasn't convinced," she shares. "I replaced the digital drums with live recordings and kept refining until version thirteen—that's when it finally clicked." 

Their EP ‘Wander With Me’ drops Thursday March 27th.

Bern-based artist Coco Elane has put out a joint EP with Leipzig producer upper class and released various singles for urbanundergrounds and Hutzpah Records. Her debut album is set to come out in late 2025.
Lucy Liebe has released three albums with Bokoya for MPM and a solo project titled Looong Epeee. As part of douniah’s live band, she has performed extensively across Germany and the UK.

New single ‘I DON'T CARE’ from Ray Lozano’s forthcoming second album ‘SILK&SORROW’, co-produced with Samon Kawamura, is out now. With ‘I DON’T CARE’, Ray dives headfirst into the apathy and disconnection that define a generation lost in digital chaos and the monotony of everyday life. Dark yet infectious, the track explores the emotional numbness brought on by a fast-paced, hyperconnected world where reality often feels out of reach.

"I wanted to tap into that feeling where everything becomes so overwhelming that you simply stop feeling invested," Lozano explains. "It’s a raw reflection on modern disillusionment — but hey, who really cares, right?"

After the success of her previous singles ‘DRAGON’, ‘HiYA’, and ‘KIKI’, Ray continues to push boundaries in 2025. Her forthcoming second album ‘SILK&SORROW’ (Friday 28th March) promises to take her signature blend of lo-fi future soul to new heights—uncompromising, playful, and deeply empowering.

With her 2023 debut album Pairing Mode (LP & Digi), co-produced with Samon Kawamura, the singer and producer from Cologne made a lasting mark on German-Asian culture. The album amassed over 55 million streams and garnered praise from tastemakers like Jamz Supernova, WDR Cosmo, and Spiegel Online. Her artistry has been recognized with the prestigious Holger Czukay Award and a NICA artist residency, all while captivating audiences across Germany.

Kofi Stone on a FloFilz beat: this is jazz rap royalty. The UKs finest & most soulful independent MC teams up with German jazz beat maestro FloFilz. After exchanging beats, bars & texts for ages this is their first official collabo. 
 
“I wrote this track upon reflection of a friend that passed - I wanted to tell his story here," Kofi explains. "I’ve been friends with FloFilz for a few years now, and it’s an honour to work with him on this. If anybody’s ever felt loss, I hope they can find comfort in this song.” 
 
FloFilz’s forthcoming ‘Dim Down’ EP will release on 4th April on 10’’ vinyl and digital. On the project he shares: “The featured artists being from the UK happened organically, as I’m very inspired by that scene and even made a London related album called ‘Transit’ before. My partner also lives in London, and we love discovering new artists and going to local concerts and festivals.”

Coco Elane (they/she) & Lucid Liebe (she/her) share their new joint single 
‘Wander With Me’, blending queer, spaced-out R&B with elements of jazz and a touch of kitsch. Lucy aka Lucid Liebe, a Berlin-based multi-instrumentalist, producer and member of jazz trio Bokoya, crafted evocative, dynamic arrangements around Coco’s haunting vocals and viola recordings. Together, they create genre-fluid, soul-ful soundscapes that feel raw, intimate, and transformative. 

“For me, this song is about the desire for emotional connection and uncertainty, that comes with it,” Coco shares. “It's also a question, whether it is all just a dream. It re-flects a mix of hope, vulnerability and uncertainty in love.” 

Their EP ‘Wander With Me’ drops Thursday March 27th.
Bern-based artist Coco Elane has put out a joint EP with Leipzig producer upper class and released various singles for urbanundergrounds and Hutzpah Records. Her debut album is set to come out in late 2025.

New single ‘CAN’T LOVE’ from Ray Lozano’s forthcoming second album ‘SILK&SORROW’ (28th March), co-produced with Samon Kawamura, is out now via Melting Pot Music.

With CAN’T LOVE, Ray Lozano delivers a hauntingly honest anthem for anyone grappling with the fear of commitment. The song delves into the emotional push and pull of relationships, exploring the tension between longing for connection and the instinct to protect oneself from heartbreak. Blending raw vulnerability with an infectious sound, CAN’T LOVE resonates deeply with those navigating love’s uncertainties. “It’s about wanting to let someone in but feeling like you just can’t,” Ray explains. “That fear can be paralyzing, and with this song I try to capture that struggle. That exact moment where love feels both essential and impossible.”

Ray Lozano's forthcoming second album ‘SILK&SORROW’ (Friday 28th March) promises to take her signature blend of lo-fi future soul to new heights—uncompromising, playful, and deeply empowering. 

With her 2023 debut album ‘Pairing Mode’ (LP & Digital), co-produced with Samon Kawamura, the singer and producer from Cologne made a lasting mark on German-Asian (pop) culture. The album amassed over 56 million streams and garnered praise from tastemakers like Jamz Supernova, 1live, WDR Cosmo, and Spiegel Online. Her artistry has been recognized with the prestigious Holger Czukay Award and a NICA artist residency, all while captivating audiences across Germany.

Twit One - Do Bem (Edit)

https://soundcloud.com/clapcotton is one of our favourite new beatmakers from Germany’s South. His laidback beats are inspired by his passion for soul and blues music and his background in classical piano for over two decades. The Nuremberg based producer mostly works without samples and serves us a more advanced sound design than your average lofi beat.
https://soundcloud.com/clapcotton has collaborated with artists like Maniac (https://soundcloud.com/demograffics), https://soundcloud.com/asmuvone , https://soundcloud.com/loop-schrauber, https://soundcloud.com/eistee, https://soundcloud.com/sisijale, Mykah 9 (Freestyle Fellowship), Hypnotize and Roger (Blumentopf).

“Setting Out” is the first single from Mr.Käfer's forthcoming EP “Lost Reflections” that will be released on KO-OP/MPM in January 2019. The nine tracks are the result of a meeting by chance between the Salzburg producer and Californian saxophonist Gavin Lord. 

“Setting Out” is a dreamy and slighlty melancholic piece of contemporary beatdriven jazz music. Perfect for the cold season.

Have beats will travel: Suff Daddy and Ta-ku have teamed up for a split EP recorded in Sydney and Perth, Australia. When Suff moved from Berlin to Sydney last summer he quickly hooked up with Perth based producer Ta-ku, best known for his „50 Days For Dilla“ project. „Bricks & Mortar“ unites two beatpals with pretty different soundscapes but one common mission: looking for the perfect beat!

“At The Bay” by Bel Cobain & Lex Amor and produced by illiterate, is the first single from The Silhouettes Project. 
 
The Silhouettes Project
 
The Silhouettes Project a new platform for up and coming Hip-Hop, Soul and Jazz artists from the UK. It is not a record label or management team, it is a community project. The Silhouettes Project provides an open space - a recording studio and live venue located within the Total Refreshment Centre in Hackney, London - where MCs, singers, musicians and producers can connect and create.

The Silhouttes Project was founded by community organisers/artists Asher Korner (aka Kosher) and Jaden Osei-Bonsu (Eerf Evil) in 2019. When they told us about the project and played us some of the music we were instantly hooked and joined the collective as label partner. The art direction is executed by Sergio „SagaUno“ Alférez, an acclaimed designer and illustrator from Medellín, Colombia.

Starting in September, we release a new single each Thursday from artists like Kofi Stone, Summers Sons, Enny, KeepVibesNear, Manik MC, Lex Amor, Louis The Hippie, Summer-Pearl, Joe Beard and many more.

All 15 singles will also be availble on one LP towards the end of the year.
