maybe there's hope for me yet
Phoebe's blowin' up and she liked my set
the golden ticket might not pay the debt
enjoy your chunk of candy while you have the chance

these eyes won't stop crying
watching youtube's of Charles Bradley

all my life it feels like i've been waiting on deck
you'd think with all this practice swinging
i'd be ready to hit
you won't know how to beat it till you've already won
sometimes the only way to learn is just to keep messing up
keep on losing

looking up the symptoms in my bed
it was plain to see that i'd soon be dead
didn't plan on ever waking up
now cars crash below as i float above

behold nighttime rainbow
gazing out the airplane window

sunny days are overrated give me the rain
i'll wear my famous blue raincoat to the infamous game
close my eyes forget about who's out in the crowd
sometimes the only way to learn is just to keep striking out
keep on swinging

hey batter batter
swing batter batter

Nighttime Rainbow

Like a Lover

written & produced by Nate Cole in 2017.
mixed by D. Wing

i got the giggles i don't think i'll ever stop
i do not intend on ever growing up
highway hypnosis gets me to the spot
blacking out until i make it to the top

partners in crime but now he is a cop
go by the book and then for sure you'll lose the plot
still can't believe they closed down the shop
i guess it's time to rewatch the Pale Blue Dot

hey Micah when is the album gonna drop
can't wait to turn it on and ride your train of thought
you make me feel like a real astronaut
it's so cliche but the music is all we've got

that's the only thing we got

NBD latest mix

Giggles

Make A Move

Make A Move [feat. Nate Cole]

A small compilation of popular and seldom heard beats from J Dilla featuring Jon Laine on drums. 
All tracks were re-programmed and sequenced by Jon Laine.

Just "Enjoy the Ride"

1. Track 38
2. WHAT UP!
3. Drop
4. Look at my friend
5. All In
6. The Confused French Horns
7. Nasty
8. Houseshoes Blues
9. Track 45
10. Track 34
11. That Shit
12. Track 24

The title is in reference to the word "batterie", which is a French term meaning "to hit".  Often used in orchestral music as batterie percussion or instruments you hit with a stick or mallet.  In this case, the use of live drums on this mix is not included in any other Dilla beat tape (just a little witty humor).

All instruments by Jon Laine
Additional keys on "Houseshoes Blues" by TFox
Recorded at FastLaine Studios

Jon Laine plays Ludwig Neusonic drums 
3x13 Pearl piccolo snare 
Paiste cymbals
