Lose yourself in a bedroom pop dreamscape with walkyouhome, the highly anticipated album release from the incredibly talented So Much Light.

Inspired by Japanese environmental soundscapes, videogame OSTs, R&B legends like Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, and guitar-driven midwest emo bands such as American Football, this album is a beautifully crafted fusion of diverse styles. So Much Light's creative vision has resulted in an album that will positively colour your everyday experiences.

So Much Light's sincere hope is that the listener will find their own space in the music, allowing for a sense of reciprocity that is truly magical.

Experimental hip-hop/jazz quartet Bokoya team up with Cologne-based producer / guitarist Gianni Brezzo (Jakarta Records) for ‘Tangram’, the second single from their upcoming album ‘Minari’ on Melting Pot Music.

Bokoya describe themselves as a four-headed human drum machine that play impro-vised beat music. You can call it jazz if you like (all four members are graduated jazz musicians btw) but be ready to stumble over some Dilla, Kraut Rock, Ambient or Dub in the mix. We recommend their double-album ‘Hausensession’ (MPM 2022) as a reference point.

Gianni Brezzo's music is a bit easier to access but not less leftfield. Jazz is a major influ-ence, but it goes way further. On his album ‘Tutto Grosso’ (Jakarta, 2022), Brezzo rides a sonic wave similar to Matthew Halsall, Surprise Chef, El Michels Affair and BadBadNot-Good. 

The recording sessions took place at the Gottesweg Studios in Cologne where Bokoya and Gianni Brezzo jammed for three days and nights based on some basic sketches and beat. The sessions were edited and arranged after by Bokoya and Brezzo but no overdubs added.

‘Minari’ will be available as digital album and LP.

Bokoya & Gianni Brezzo - Tangram

This beat was pretty long to flip cause of the way the hi hats were in the sample, loads of 16 and maybe even 32 note rolls, which made it a bit tough to sequence whilst keeping a consistent tempo. I had to really experiment with what drums I used cause some sounds would clash with the drums in the sample, defo glad I took my time with it cause I'm really happy with how the drums ended up sounding on this one. 

The beat has that kind of vibe which I thought would fit a pretty grimey acapella, this one from Onyx is too dope, one of my favourite songs of theirs and definitely my all time favourite album from them, 100% in my top 20 Hip Hop albums, just such an enjoyable listen all the way through. I didn't remix all the verses for this one, the middle two are great verses but the flow wasn't quite geling with the drum pattern like the first and last verses, so I decided to just remix them this time round. I have remixed those middle verses before, another one which I'm still proud of, very different vibe though so it was cool to tap into more of the hardcore feel for this one.

‘To Avoid a Narrow Path’ is to be in pursuit of the road less travelled, and that sentiment perfectly sums up Stan lodge’s debut EP.

The multi instrumentalist and producer shares five tracks including collaborations with saxophonist and recent Mercury Prize winner James Mollison as well as lead single with Saveyda. 

Smooth beats intertwined with Stan's keys and guitar, with string courtesy of Jed Bevington.

RIP MF DOOM

DOOMSDAY TRIBUTE: Roughs & Rares - Out This Friday: https://youtu.be/o-KyztJwudw

One of my favourite tracks from Operation Doomsday: the scratches really make it for me and of course DOOM is on point lyrically. Love the philosophy behind the track too, really hits hard. Had to bring the emotional vibe with this remix, love pairing DOOM with these kind of beats.

Friday's album is a collection of tracks which I wanted to have on last years DOOMSDAY album: but they didn't end up making it. They aren't throwaway tracks at all, the first half of the Roughs & Rares is actually how I originally envisioned the album starting and progressing: so there's a few remixes and blends that I've never released before. Originally I was going for a much shorter project: 20 minutes max: so from the first track of this up until the Questions remix is what I was originally thinking. I ultimately went in a different direction for the final album and made it way longer etc, so I shelved the ideas I originally had for a shorter tape. Thought it would make sense to release it as a mini album this year, otherwise I don't think I'd ever release them to the world. Thank you in advance for checking it: Peace.

Vermona's Curse is a cool, silky instrumental from the ever impeccably smooth Dwyer.
Playing this track feels like surfing through the sunset on an underwater cloud... if that doesn't make any sense, give it a listen and see for yourself 🕶️
