Today marks ten years since NINETOFIVE® Recordings opened up shop.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to support so many talented producers across so many sub-genres of instrumental music. Their styles are all different, but I’ve always felt they go hand-in-hand. And to celebrate a full decade of NINETOFIVE, we’re releasing a compilation that celebrates the diversity of artists and instrumental genres we love here.

For all you vinyl collectors: we’re releasing a limited-edition double LP of the album in collaboration with our friends over at Qrates. We’re only making 200 physical copies, but the compilation will be on streaming, too. (Owning the album feels way cooler, though—so go grab a copy!)

Thinking back, it’s clear how much the beat-making scene has changed since the early Soundcloud days. There’s less super-heavy sidechaining and everyone’s a little better at mixing, but the real evolution is the community that’s formed around instrumental music. That wasn’t there when we started, and contributing to it has been such an honor.

Thank you to everyone who’s shown us support over the years, listened to our releases, read our articles, or become a fan of the beatmakers in our community. You’ve made NINETOFIVE what it is today. Here’s to our second decade!

Friends

The first song from our 10 year anniversary of the ninetofive®. First up, the beatmaker at that time when we started to collaborate went under his alias mnstrmkk and now the one that's more iconic Monma. 

There's so many great moments during this journey to share, great people and beautiful songs that has been released since the prime days on soundcloud. The project is a dedication to friends and people you've met through music around the world.

Al Dali - Hittin' Switches

First and foremost, I would like to introduce you all to 88JAY and welcome him to the crew as our latest member. You might recognize his sound and style in collaborations he's done with Kreatev which we have worked a lot with in the past. 

88JAY is an Atlanta based producer and multi-genre musician with a live band background. 88JAY is a pianist, percussionist, and guitarist with heavy influences from neo-soul, jazz, and lo-fi sounds. 

He familiarized himself with Atlanta’s underground subculture genres around the age of 19. Since then he’s produced several singles and EP’s with various artists, and is now releasing his standalone instrumentals featuring a lot of those artists.
