…basically in every way. Getting inspiration from all over the place, meeting new people, great artists and listeners. Made my first own track, the weather is beautiful… And I listen to music all day every day… And here’s some of the beats that made my summer so great. A big thank you to all the artists involved. Keep it chilled and sweet, just like your drinks in this hot weather.
…The Sea. One of the newest members of the DWK family will help you with it for sure. Chariman Maf does a great job with soundscapes and he is really into chilled, downtempo beats nowadays. Of course, he did not let us down with his last track either. Quite the opposite… this track is layered perfectly, has all the atmosphere and vibes that you would get from laying on a beach. Take the trip and you won’t be disappointed.
Here’s another great release. deeB is from the Netherlands and made his first solo debut with this freely downloadable EP, called Daydream. As you can see from the title of the post, I got sucked in by the atmosphere of the tracks and the way he uses different instruments is stunning. Don’t miss out on this one. By the way, I got this link from a friend who is making beats of his own, so I’ll link his work too. Can’t go wrong with a double post!
So, the beatmaker who showed me the link also does a beautiful job with sounds. A funky track Infiltrate made a little while ago got noticed pretty quickly so I’ll link the first version of it, and check his bandcamp for the 2nd (improved version) too.
2nd verision:
It is very rare that you can find a beatkmaker / producer who sounds like something new. Well, Kognitif is one of the few who can. His tracks are an earful blend of trip hop, instrumental hip hop, electro and who knows what else… and it sounds insanely great. Little bits and pieces of space will make you want more and in no time all his beats are totally addictive. Give it a try, it’s like a drug.
…is the title of my latest mix that got very nice compliments from my present heroes in music. I am very grateful for all the listeners and feedback, hopefully I can become even better. This mix is full of classic trip hop / abstract hip hop tracks and artists but you can also hear tunes from producers who quickly became favourites in my book even though I’ve only heard them first this year. The basic idea came when a friend of mine asked if I can recommend tracks or artists that sound like Dig This Vibe by Dj Krush. My first idea for him was Dj Cam‘s Mad Blunted Jazz and then mononome, The Blue Squares and off I went on one of the finest digging trips of my life so far. I had about 1100 tracks to check and you will certainly enjoy the 23 tracks that made it into the mix. Their atmosphere and chilled vibes will probably be a trip for you just like making the mix was for me. Feed your ears!
That’s how your world turns after you press play on a new 21-track release titled Basement Skylights from Anitek, Tab, A.U.R.C. and Hernan Faraci. The genre is all around the place which is really a compliment here… overchilled sounds, turntablism, dubbish vibes, trip hop tunes and hip hop beats can all be found among the meticulously created pieces. I can’t even choose a personal favourite, they are so good, so I will link the whole set instead. Free download available behind the picture as always. Make sure you check this one out, it would be a shame to miss it… or as the man Anitek himself put it “A MUST LISTEN abstract hiphop, experimental psychedelicness.”
We want Time Travel! When do we want it? It’s irrelevant… Well in this case it’s not. Cause if you want to time travel, today is the day. Jenova 7 and Mr. Moods teamed up for a new release, titled Time Travelers. We have been waiting patiently and the time has come… Check the DWK site today for the ultimate chillout. Free download.
…to share another epic tune. The Blue Square consists of Radim and Radical, two Greek producers working together since the summer of 2010. In the winter of 2010, they introduced the first sample of their work to the world through the two tracks: «Tic Toc» and «The Old Devil Sunshine». It was really hard to choose a track, but I had to go with Tic Toc as that was the first tune I heard from them. Listen ASAP, the clock is Toc(k)ing… I mean Tic(k)ing.
You might now the guilty parties present in this trio from older posts, but it’s well worth checking them out one by one as for sure. Thing is, these three awesome producers have recently announced that they will join forces in order to create something that will shake your world. And so they did. Mononome, Mr. Moods és Jenova 7 together known as Wax Triptych has released its 1st track. Eargasm!

Az előző posztokból ismerhetitek már az alábbi trió tagjait, de ha mégsem, akkor egyenként is érdemes utánuk nézni. Tehát az a helyzet, hogy nem rég bejelentette ez a három zseni, hogy közösen megpróbálnak valami újat alkotni. Sikerült. Mononome, Mr. Moods és Jenova 7 létrehozta a Wax Triptych nevezetű kollaborációt, aminek első trackje már hallgatható és kőkemény.
And he did. The line in the title is from Jazz.zene by Kovacs. The Hungarian gentleman, Nándor Kovács has created something really unique and everlasting with his album, Piszkos Jazz. He went so deep down the rabbit hole with the beats and instruments, that every track is whole new trip. The album in its entirety is a journey to the past which is a must for all the jazz fanatics. There’s going to be a remix album published soon, there was a remix competition to which anybody could send their works in November, 2011. Nándi is now waiting for the label to drop the remix album. His other alter ego, Savages teamed up with Suefo, the duo is going to have a 12″ coming out soon, as well.

És tényleg. Ezzel a sorral nyit Kovacs Jazz.zene című trackje. Gondolom a névből kiderült, hogy magyar úriemberről van szó. Nándor valami igazán maradandót és különlegeset alkotott Piszkos Jazz című lemezével. Olyan mélyen nyúlt bele a darázsfészekbe az ütemekkel, hogy minden dal egy új utazás. A lemez egészében pedig kihagyhatatlan, minden igazi jazz fanatikusnak közelező darab. A magyar Chameleon Records kiadó gondozásában megjelent korongból remix album is készül, amelyre bárki küldhetett be anyagot. Nándi csak a kiadóra vár, hogy visszatérjen az országba és újabb csemegében lehet részünk. Egyébként Kovacs néven már saját bevallása szerint nem lép fel annyit, de BudaBeats-es eseményeken legtöbbször játszik. Másik alteregoja, a Savages is mindenképp említésre méltó, a Five Finger Discount című album remek beatekkel megpakolt kiadvány, de személyes kedvencem a Hajnalhang című dal.
*update Nánditól: “A savages y suefo formációnak hamarosan egy 12″-es bakelitje jön ki a német agogo recordsnál, utána pedig – valószínűleg még idén, egy album is.” – Örömmel halljuk és nagyon várjuk, köszi!
