In late January 2012 the Ruffcats spent three days and nights at the Lovelite studio in Berlin, where they recorded their debut album “The Essence Vol.1” on 8-track tape. The Ruffcats are one of Germany's hardest working backing bands, laying down grooves for singers like Flo Mega, Bajka or Georgia Ann Muldrow. On “The Essence Vol.1” the 8-piece band is doing their very own thing, banging out raw and dirty soul and funk cuts with a nod towards psych jazz and kraut groove. Needless to say that the music is tailor made for sampling. So we passed the master tapes to some of our favourite producers and asked them to have fun with it. If you listen to this record you may agree that the guys did a pretty decent job, cooking up their own stew based on the original ingredients prepared by The Ruffcats. On top of it, two local MCs are adding lyrics to go, which isn't a bad thing either. If I had to put it in one sentence: with Sopa de Tartaruga (Portuguese for turtle soup) Melting Pot Music is coming full circle.

how we be

“King’s Road Soul” is a lofi beat woven from the streets I grew up on — King’s Road, Quarry Bay.
It’s a sonic postcard from Hong Kong’s east side: the hum of trams, the rhythm of foot traffic, the quiet corners where I found myself.
This track is for anyone who’s ever felt the soul of a place seep into their bones.

King's Road Soul

Free DL / Buy 7":  https://manateecommune.bandcamp.com/album/clay

Manatee Commune, AKA Grant Eadie, infuses his beats with the lush sounds of the Pacific Northwest landscape that surrounds his native Bellingham. Clattering drums hum alongside the chatter of birds, the trickle of rain, and the billowing of wind chimes, creating gorgeous soundscapes that could score future episodes of Planet Earth. On his newest release, "Clay", Eadie's pop sensibility shines through, showcasing his bright and compact production. Marina Price lends her smooth, smoky vocals to yet another Manatee Commune track that is bound to invoke the nostalgia of a youthful summer dream.

- One of my favorite duo’s of all time is Reflection Eternal. They’ve been a key  influence in the way I produce. I gave a lil nod to Hi-Tek’s “too late” with the synth line on this track. Reflection Eternal taught me how powerful collaborations can be within music. The first version of this song came from a jam session I had in Nashville with Gibbs and the boys from Cherub. We all spent a week cranking out music, recording songs, sessions, ideas. A few months later I came across the recordings while on a flight and decided to use some of it. It’s one of the most headphone friendly tracks on here, probably because that’s how it was made.
