Ruffmixlosttape2

‘Ruff Mix Lost Trip 2’ is an instrumental project produced by London’s Omar Teknology. This is a follow up to the ‘Ruff Mix Lost Trip’ which Omar dropped back in November. The project files of every single beat on ‘Ruff Mix Lost Trip 2’ are lost – hence the title & rough mixes.

However, that doesn’t detract from the release, ‘Ruff Mix Lost Trip 2’ showcases Omar Teknology’s beat making ability with  8 experimental  Hip hop/Electronica/soul fused sounds. This isn’t something you’re going to be jumping around the room to, however if you want to sit back and relax I suggest you put this on.

Shawn Lee – ‘Boom Bap’ #Instrumental #AUDIO @iloveshawnlee

Track taken from ‘Golden Age Against The Machine’ is a passion play. A living audio love letter to the golden age of hip-hop. This spans the early 80’s to the mid 90’s. Shawn takes up the story

“Like many other musicians, sample based production effected me deeply. It permeated the how and what i played. The sonic qualities of my productions, the arrangements and my drumming… hip-hop at its best was raw and unconventional…. there is something magical about grabbing a loop from an old funk record and layering it with some strings from an easy listening record and pitching down a horn stab from a jazz record and a guitar lick from pysch rock record …. and then pinning it down with a fat beat”

Tragedy tha Beast – ‘Value of Life’, Tragedy explains “”Value of Life” is inspired by the continuous devaluing of life specifically in my hometown of Chicago. I won’t act as if this is anything new or recent, but I also won’t sit by and act as if I’m not moved or disturbed by the lack of, either. The instrumental is a Tae Beast (T.D.E. producer) beat from his 2012 project, “The Tae Beast Tape, Vol. 2.”

For those that don’t know about Jazz Spastiks, they’re a highly gifted production duo residing in Edinburgh, Scotland. Blending their love of Jazz with Hip Hop, they make nothing but pure head-nodding, neck-snapping beats.

This limited edition 7″ Vinyl consists of 2 solid sides. The A-side ‘Move’ features the legendary Apani B Fly on the mic. Apani’s impressive flow and delivery perfectly complements this finely produced, laid-back, feel-good JS beat. This is a joint you can put on in almost any situation!

The B-side contains 2 tracks. First up is ‘Frequency’ – a fairly fast-paced, upbeat track featuring underground Canadian emcee Moka Only. This is then swiftly followed by a short bonus beat (not stated on the sleeve) entitled ‘Tapedeck’.

7” Vinyl in 3mm spine and full colour sleeve. Limited to 300 copies only.

SHIPPING: On or around 23rd June, 2014

You can listen to snippets of both sides via the link below:
