Nanna.B - Vitaphone

Release Date: 29 October 2012

Label: Green Shades Music

"Danish singer Nanna.B is ready with her debut Vitaphone, a 12 track album, all created throughout 2011 and early 2012. The title is inspired by a Basquiat painting, and consists of the two words "Vita" and "phone", meaning "life" and "sound". As Nanna writes in the album booklet, Vitaphone: "is a testimony as to where i've been, where i am and where i'm going; South, North, inside, outside, inner 

space, outer space, somewhere in between and somewhere out between". The sound of the album is organic and warm with dusty beats and Nanna's voice as the two main elements . Most tracks 

are with live instrumentation, but a few more electronic and some all-vocal tracks also contributes to the 40 minute musical journey, where the more experimental sides of soul is also being explored. This is a result of the collaboration with the main producer of the album, Damp, and with an ambition to create an album sounding like a soul concert taking place on a trip to the moon, the two spend most of 2011 in an homebuild analogue studio in the countryside of Denmark. 

When downloading the entire album you will also get the bonus track "Arrows""

Produced by Damp

Executive Producer: Nanna.B

Mastered by Mads Oustrup at NEST,

(except track 12, mastered by Al Benedict)

KVZE - Kontrast

Rok: 2011

Label: Budabeats

Nowa twarz w Budabeats to producent ze Stanów Zjednoczonych (Richmond) ukrywajacy się pod pseudonimem KVZE.

Charakter materiału można określić jako powrót do lat osiemdziesiątych. Masa sampli z tamtych czasów z muzyki disco tworzy ciekawą ale momentami trochę męczącą kombinację.

Crookram - Through Windows

Rok: 2010

Label: Bankrupt Recordings, Budabeats

Discogs

Crookram po pierwszej EPce "19/76" (pisałem o niej tutaj) wydanej 2 lata wcześniej w Budabeats oraz drugiej "Escape, the EP" wyprodukowanej razem z Sagesse (poprzedni post) rok wcześniej i wydanej w Bankrupt Recordings, powraca z długogrającym albumem.

Tym razem płyta zostaje wydana w obu netlabelach. Usłyszymy na niej kontynuację tego co było wcześniej lecz w nowej odsłonie. Świetne downtempowe bity pomieszane z tajemniczymi samplami z filmów tworzą kolejny niepowtarzalny album.

Tracklista:

1 Back To The School 1:20    
2 Crookrilla 3:45    
3 Breakdawn 3:35

Discogs - Must Be The Neitherlands

Rok: 2008 

Label: Budabeats

Węgierski zespół grający na żywo, w skład którego wchodzą:

       Melinda Csorba, Ádám Kovács, Dániel Gál, János Bene, Árpád Kiss, József Lakinger.
Pierwszą rzeczą jaką wydali był singiel "Hi Fi" w 2002 roku. Później po dłuższej przerwie (rok 2006) wrócili w całkiem innej konwencji z albumem "From The Head To The Feet", który wydali własnym sumptem.

Kolejnymi produkcjami zespołu są 2 EPki (a raczej single) wydane w netlabelu Budabeats: "Nofun Nofun " oraz "Must Be The Neitherland". W obu przypadkach mieliśmy do czynienia z tytułowym utworem i jego 3 remixami. Lecz oba single zwróciły uwagę poważniejszych wytwórni (Narrator Records, Wagram Records) 
i  w obu singlach zostały "podkradzione" 2 wersje utworów. Teraz za darmo w budabeats możemy dostać tylko po 2 remixy.

Muzyka grana przez zespół to dub, breakbeat i nu jazz połączony z urzekającym wokalem Melindy Csorby.

  

Utwór "Nofun" w remixie Crookrama (również reprezentanta bubabeats), którego już nie doświadczymy na singlu wydanym przez budabeats:
