Brenk Sinatra - Midnite Ride II (2019)




Order CD: hhv.de
Stream/Digital: brenksinatra.bandcamp.com


Limited edition of 300 copies on CD. 

4 years after the release of “Midnite Ride”, one of Brenk Sinatra’s most cohesive albums, fans and music connoisseurs now have every reason to be excited about this instrumental classic‘s sequel. 

It was never really possible to box Brenk‘s detailed production work into a specific category. It’s the same this time: “Midnite Ride II” is building bridges between Boom-Bap and Trap music, two sub-genres that all too often seemed to be impossible to unite in the past. 

The album resonates with Brenk‘s current state of mind like none of his previous projects regarding sound aesthetic. Nevertheless, “Midnite Ride II” delivers a seamless sequel to the first part of the series while at the same time opening up completely new spheres within the sound universe that the beat authority from Vienna lives in.

Geliks - Spaghetti Ice (2019)

HashFinger - DANDELIONS (2019)






Dandelions, the brand new album from HashFinger is brimming with mature, textured boom-bap which sees him move back toward ground last trodden on his Headcount debut Lessons. Gone are the large, vocal samples which were a hallmark of Kites and Elsewhere – this time out the beat maker from Bradford opts for a more introspective and organic sound. Summer is here and the dandelions are in bloom.

The Expert - Excursions (2019)





Order Vinyl: theexpert.bandcamp.com


Straight out of Dublin comes the accomplished beat-maestro The Expert. Inspired by golden-era giants like The Rza, Pete Rock, and Large Professor — as well as new school titans Oddisee, Exile, and Eric Lau — The Expert got his start in the Irish Choice Prize-nominated duo Messiah J & The Expert. In 2015, The Expert broke out on his own with the renowned album Dynamic Drift and collaborations with the likes of Tanya Morgan, Zilla Rocca and Has-Lo. 

Now The Expert arrives at Cold Busted with Excursions, a 20-track exploration of smooth instrumental hip-hop for the mind and soul. The album is a laid-back journey filled with intricate nuances and sublime rhythm constructions. There are moments of pensive beauty (“If”) and soulful jazziness (“Vacuum”) as well as evocative Latin-tinged moments (“Firmino”) and splashes of spacey moodiness (“Believe In This”). All in all, Excursions is a melodic trip from beginning to end, suitable for unexpected destinations and extended travels.

Blu & Damu The Fudgemunk – Ground & Water (2019)





Stream/Digital: store.tidal.com


With Ground & Water, Blu and Damu The Fudgemunk have released yet another standout project as part of their already-incredibly noteworthy catalogues. But this time, they’ve done it together. After collaborating in different ways over the years, the two joined forces for a release that’s every bit as dope as you’d hope considering who’s involved. From the Los Angeles rapper’s tight-as-ever rhymes to the Washington, D.C. native’s crunchy production, Ground & Water captures exactly why Blu and Damu are so revered.

For Damu, that meant diving into the storied discography of his new partner-in-rhyme. While the producer always thought highly of the emcee’s talents, he says he realized that Blu’s much greater than people give him credit for. That led to the excitement of creating Ground & Water, because Damu knew he’d get to tell a story through a cohesive release. The story is one that treads personal, introspective territory that Blu delivers like only he can.

On standout track “Share The Love,” Blu and guest Raw Poetic (one of Damu’s frequent collaborators) tackle the dusty, meditative production with thoughtful raps about wanting to see the world in a better place with inspirational lines like, "Stop being so tight, and be more lovable/ I guarantee more opportunities open up for you." Similarly, Blu bares his soul on instant highlights “Feet on the Ground,” “Rhymes & Gemstones,” and “Greyheaven." His verses take a deep dive into relatable topics like faith, guilt, spirituality, humility, and so much more, proving that his pen game is as sharp as ever.

“When you listen to the lyrics and digest the subject matter, there's a lot of depth in his words,” Damu says of his collaborator. “I wanted to provide a similar depth in the music.” To say he matched Blu’s efforts would be an understatement, which you could find out for yourself right now, by heading over to your preferred digital retailer or streaming platform and giving the project a spin. The project, whose stunning artwork is designed by the legendary Joe Buck (De La Soul is Dead), will also be available in the coming weeks on vinyl, CD and cassette, through Redefinition Records.

Skyzoo & Pete Rock - Retropolitan (2019)




Order Vinyl: fatbeats.com
Stream/Digital:mmg-skyzoo.bandcamp.com

White vinyl, limited to 200 copies, exclusive to Fat Beats.

When rumors spread months ago that Skyzoo had begun working on a collaborative project with the iconic Pete Rock it quickly set social media aflame. While details were scant, Mello Music Group is happy to finally reveal the details and officially announce Skyzoo & Pete Rock’s new album, Retropolitan, with Billboard who premiered the lead single It’s All Good. 

It’s All Good finds Skyzoo skating over a beat from Pete’s secret “SP-1200 stash,” and this one in particular was produced in 1994 around the same time as Pete's Illmatic sessions with Nas. 

Retropolitan includes 12-tracks, all produced by Pete Rock, with features from Styles P, Benny The Butcher, Conway, Westside Gunn, Elzhi, and Raheem DeVaughn. 

It is more than an album of beats. & rhymes. It’s two generations of legendary native New Yorkers putting it down and pulling no punches. Skyzoo & Pete Rock use this album to create a love letter and a wakeup call to the city, as they have witnessed its culture stripped away layer-by-layer.

Order Cassette: sbrothers.bandcamp.com

Limited to 100

Harkening back to a simpler time when hip-hop was comprised of party rhymes and recognizable sounds, the almighty S Brothers are here with a maxi-single-style release that will have you dusting off your Walkman. Luke Sick (Sacred Hoop, Grand Invincible) and Doug Surreal (Jack Spaar, Motel Crew), two Bay Area underground hip-hop vets, approached this project as a way to pay homage to the Megamix era of hip-hop, about 1988-1991. Beyond just a good listening experience, well-versed hip-hop heads will have fun spotting all of the various references and callbacks to classic jams. Luke himself says it best when describing this tape as “the kind of hip-hop that made you fall in love with hip-hop.”

jarjarjr- Free Parking on Sundays (2019)




Stream/Digital: radiojuicy.bandcamp.com

Radio Juicy proudly introduces up and coming Irish producer j a r j a r j r to the family. With this incredible EP that tells a specific story (see the artist's words) he takes you in his world for a moment. So don't be shy and let go. The album comes illustrated with the beautiful art by Jim Spendlove. Here take a minute and sit with this EP you'll thank us later!

----------------

My new project is a departure from the ways of old. Free Parking on Sundays is an aural accomplice on your Sunday morning drive.
The EP is comprised of 6 tracks, each documenting the critical stages of thought that ensue following a heavy Saturday night.
'Wake Up Call' coaxes you from your covers, with an ethereal introduction. What follows is a rush of energy, joy and confusion as you reminisce and reflect upon the happenings of the night before.
Taking the bull by the horns, you begin your journey with "U Turn", the false naivety in thinking that your actions will bear no consequences and that all is well.
Guilt takes a hold in "You Call it Madness", deep in thought you narrowly avoid crisis in "Close Encounter".
The hustle and bustle of the city snaps you back to reality when you witness a "Quandary on Wandesford Quay".
Finally, you find peace. Forgiving yourself and the night gone by. You feel "Earthed" and are ready to start fresh, embarking upon new adventure. Navel gazing is healthy, but not too much. So be kind to yourself and learn from your mistakes.
