loving this Scott! the vibes I like the most ... pm me pls :)

The monthly "Clen's List" playlists comes from the great music that comes across on Soundcloud each month. Of course this wouldn't be possible without the work of all the producers, reposters, promoters, and suggestions from others, so thanks and big up to everyone out there sharing and producing these sounds.

Another goal of these lists is to promote the artists producing the tunes. There are some really incredible less known productions that float around and just don't wind up in the "spotlight". By including these productions in the lists, hopefully these great works get their time in the spotlight.

Look out for a new list around the end of each month.

Whoever is listening, thanks and enjoy!
~Clen

P.S. Overtime the lists lose tracks that were originally included. I do not know if this is due to artists removing their tracks from Soundcloud (or the tracks get bought by a record company and then removed), or if there is another reason. I will try to keep these lists as up to date and as close to how they were originally as best as possible. As of February 2014 the original list will be in the bottom of the description.

Satl & Velocity - Set It Out

Something new with my friends Payback & A.K.A

Conspire, Payback & A.K.A - Love Is A Drug

New track in the works!   Release details TBA

Scott Allen - After All

Digital Blus has always been at the forefront of the smoother styles of drum 'n bass – liquid, deep, rolling tunes that know exactly how to hit the bass bin and get the floor moving. Kind of Blu Part II is no different. Comprised of 18 tracks (nearly two hours of play!) balanced nicely between friends that have already had releases on Digital Blus; and those who are just stepping on board, there is more than enough content to sway too regardless of your preferred style.

DIGIBLUS040 – VARIOUS ARTISTS - KIND OF BLU LP PART II

RELEASE DATE: 02.12.2016

SUPPORT BY BRYAN G, DJ MARKY, RANDOM MOVEMENT, INTELLIGENT MANNERS, JOHN B, SILVER, JAYBEE, PHYSICS, UNREAL, DAVE OWEN, SCHEMATIC, SKORE, STUNNA, ETHERWOOD, DANNY WHEELER AND MANY MORE...

Emphasis & Unvariable – "I Need You" is a minimal, chilled out stepper. 

Soundcycles – "Makes A Change" is a feel-good piano stepper with inspiring lyrics Great for an opener. 

Carter hosts a duo of releases on the album, "Life is a Spiritual Thing" has a raggae-bass vibe infused, while With You (featuring Salem) takes it down into classic piano-laced liquid styles.

Underdog comes through with beautiful atmospheric breakbeat programming on "In the Wine".

Rizla, Krot and La Meduza bring that soulful, downtempo vibe while LaMeduza's vocals hit the speakers. Think of Uncut's legendary anthem from 2001 – Midnight. This one has THAT sort of impact. 

Yes yes! Following up, Label owner Jay Rome comes through with a collaboration with longtime label mates Paul SG and DJ Chap on "Waya" – classic liquid as expected.  

Euphorics "Syncopa" is a mysterious one – an early jazz style ting rocks out the intro while the ladies sampled bring an explosion of energy. 

Decon brings the remix treatment to Underdog's "Your Smile", rolled out in a deep and thoughtful way. Smooth with bass that moves, the remix is superb.

New recruit Rafau Etamski entices the crowd to "Follow Me" through deep, soul-moving drum 'n bass. Deep sub-bass will have floor movers blissed out here. 

Nummix's "Sea Fever" would be a great closer to any night with its uplifting jazz-funk vibes. 

Cnof does a great job in combining that 70s disco feel with an uplifting beat on "One I Love" before Ivoree & Natural Flavor drive the vibes deep into the underground with "Find A Way". 

Capsika's "Gopnik Funk" begins with a half time feel, before catapulting into a smorgasboard of sounds and textures.

Jay Rome rolls through solo on "Backyard Boogie", a super funky, and instrument-laden track. 

Pure ecstasy – bound to be a dancefloor anthem in the future. MsdoS & Funkware give us an Introduction to Brass in this catchy number. 

As we come to a close, Mode Function dives into the "Soul Heart" with classic jazz and bass. Seductive keys and slow-moving trumpets move out alongside the vocal before the drums attack, and send the floor into the dance. 

Last up is Twintone's I Try Bossa. Going all the way back to the first release, longtime producer Twintone, gives the classic a revamp – a perfect way to chill out after 17 other tracks of greatness.

The Blueprints EP marks the welcome return of the talented Toulouse based producer Redeyes. Following a number of releases on seminal labels such as Bingo, Creative Source, Innerground and Brownswood in the mid 2000s, Redeyes then decided to take a step back from music production. Now returning as a more complete and mature artist, his Blueprints EP on Lenzman’s The North Quarter imprint sends an exciting message of where Julien Salvi stands in 2017.

Comprising of an ambitious nine tracks, Redeyes’ Blueprints EP showcases his exquisite musicianship and ability in the studio throughout each piece of music. In true North Quarter style, he effortlessly breaks down the boundaries between Drum & Bass and Hip Hop, whilst fully maintaining the soulful and heartfelt aesthetic that he is known and revered for.

The release sees him join forces with a plethora of exciting talent. ‘100 Porsches To The Stars’ brings him together with underground LA rap hero Hus Kingpin for a lo-fi Hip Hop masterclass. He also collaborates with Mancunian don Black Josh, Children of Zeus’ infamous Tyler Daley, North Quarter chief Lenzman, and many more.

Redeyes - In My Life

Oliver Ferrer (@oliverferrer) makes his debut for Innerground with a beautiful pairing of tracks on the True Love EP. 

Oliver Ferrer is bringing that Brazilian flair with him as he rolls out "True Love" and "Looking For Someone" - both of which have received some heavy rotation from our very own DJ Marky on stage and in studio mixes for the likes of @djmag and @fabric . 

"True Love" & "Looking For Someone" both draw on some fantastic instrument work - the former working with keys and the latter holding true to the rolling vibe with a string accompaniment. 

All in all another set of tried and tested rollers drenched in summer vibes.

Following on from Pictures Of You ft. DRS and Rain ft. Children Of Zeus earlier this month, Lenzman sparked an uproar of excitement as speculation arose for his next LP. Today, Lenzman makes a return to Goldie’s Metalheadz label to drop the Bobby LP.

Gliding through sub-genres of hip-hop, jazz and soul, Lenzman’s new album is forward-thinking with complimenting crossovers that still connect with the current drum and bass scene. Across this boundary defying journey, Lenzman draws on a cascade of mellow and weighty subs, soft and rich vocal tones from collaborators DRS, Children Of Zeus and Konny Kon whilst guest producers Artificial Intelligence and LSB lend their notable skills to the LP with nostalgic melodies. Amongst the intricate sound design also lies sentimental influence of family and childhood that has served as the essential foundation to bind the LP together:

“I became a father a year or so before starting the album. My daughter had also named her stuffed toy “Bobby” at the time,” Lenzman explains. Although the LP was already taking shape that was fitting for me as a title. Becoming a Dad had made me revisit my own childhood and look at it from a different angle. The memories, influences and music from that period of my life were the most vivid in my mind... the moods and feelings, all translated into the music on the LP. I was raised by my father and he used to draw a lot back in those days, so it was fitting for him to draw the cover, fragments of my childhood put onto paper.”

Since stepping on the scene in 2007, Lenzman has continued to flourish as an artist known for his fluid approach and bold collaborations. Whilst producing his own originals including his debut LP Looking At The Stars in 2014 and Golden Age EP in 2016, the revered producer has also provided the remix treatment for Joe Hertz’ One Another and The Mouse Outfit’s Feeling High. Having released on the likes of Spearhead Records, SGN:LTD, Soul:r and his rising North Quarter imprint over the years, the Bobby LP on Metalheadz is primed to satisfy the bubbling cravings of patiently waiting Lenzman fans whilst capturing the ears of a wider global audience as he releases his most seminal body of work to date.

Scott grew up in Seattle, Washington (USA), and was a big music lover at a young age. At 10 years old, he fell in love with new wave music and the synth-driven tunes of the early 80’s. A couple of years later, he began a new passion, collecting Hip-Hop music. 

When Scott was 18 years old, he moved to the L.A. area to attend college and play water polo at Chapman University. When he moved into his dorm room he met his future deejay partner and Neosoul band partner, Tim Andren. Scott and Tim would spend hours talking about music and seeing who could supply the best, most underground Hip-Hop tune with the most addictive beats and sounds. During this period in his life, Scott was introduced to Breakbeat, Hardcore Breaks, early Jungle, and Ambient Dub Music. Scott immediately fell in love with the overall feel and freedom of the music.

At about the age of 21, Scott and his roommates bought their first set of turntables and the passion for the music grew into an intense love. About 2 weeks after he bought his turntables, he was already circulating his mix tapes and getting booked to play at clubs and parties in L.A. After a year or two of playing local shows, Scott began playing shows all over the USA and Canada, exposing these areas to the Neosoul breakbeat sound. He was fortunate enough to play alongside such heavy-hitting acts as DJ Dan, Donald Glaude, Bassbin Twins, Simply Jeff, and many other big names.

When the breakbeat scene slowed down around 2001, Scott went back to his roots in electronic music and began enjoying the sounds of Jungle music, only now the music was more refined. He began to go to Drum & Bass events and would catch LTJ Bukem & Conrad, and the rest of the Good Looking crew every time they would perform in the Southern California area. He was drawn to the melodic, jazzy, and ethereal sounds of Drum & Bass music, and he especially liked it with Conrad hypnotically weaving his lyrics over the tunes. He began collecting Drum & Bass records and also started producing Drum & Bass in about 2004. It was also around this time that Scott further developed his passion for Reggae and Dub music. You can definitely hear the influence that these genres of music have had in his music.

His production became more serious when people started hearing his songs and began to show interest in wanting more of his sound. After a few years of producing and getting a number of tracks signed to major labels, Scott decided to start his own label, Soul Deep Recordings. Since Soul Deep’s inception in January 2011, the label has seen a great amount of success and has been established as one of the top Liquid/Deep/Jazzy labels in the music game. 

In addition to releasing many EP’s on Soul Deep, Scott has released music on a number of other top labels including, Fokuz, Celsius, Good Looking, Smooth N Groove, Telluric, Celsius, Soul Rebel, Jazzsticks, Phuzion, Liquid V, Atmomatix and Sheer Velocity. Currently, Scott keeps himself busy pushing the record label and playing shows as often as he can. You can follow Scott on Social Media to keep up to date with his releases.
