Repeat Pattern (previously posted here) has released a new digital album with one of my favourite indie labels, Cascade Records. The album is available for a name-your-price download on http://cascaderecords.bandcamp.com/album/08-09

It’s a neat acid-jazz cross trip-hop record, I highly recommend you go grab it… and while your at it, why not support the artist with a few bucks?

PS: I’ll be posting another mixtape for new years, so stay tuned for Jan 1st

I’ve had this album for quite awhile, sitting on my iTunes accumulating plays.

I think it’s time I posted about it.

40s With Ghost is a short track (under 1 minute). I highly recommend you check out the FREE ALBUM which is a collaboration between artists Ackryte, Broke and Repeat Pattern out on Cascade Records’ bandcamp page.

This track by Broke is a jazzy downtempo piece with neat sampled flourishes throughout it. I chose to post this particular track simply because it’s a good teaser for the rest of the amazing album. Seriously. Check it out.

Have I posted any drum and bass/jungle before?

No?

Oh, that’s strange… Here’s Adam F with 8 Ball. It’s pretty rad. It’s got this jazzy bassline drop in it- something I’d play if owned a hectic snooker bar where everyone wore suits with fedoras and drank scotch on the rocks. Anybody know of anywhere like that? I’d like to go.

I guess this track will have to do in the meantime…

Oudies – Jijopers by Chris

Ok, after countless hours of Skyrim (I play for the music, I swear) I’m back to posting.

Oudies is from Chile, he produces some groovy hip-hop instrumentals with lots of interesting samples- from recordings of the ocean to old jazz records. I’m really digging his stuff at the moment.

This track Jijopers has one of those cool slap-rattle things which name escapes me at the moment punctuating the broken-beat that jangles along with some simplistically pretty synths. It’s a short one too, so if you are left wanting more- check out his soundcloud or his free album on bandcamp.

Juzhin – Tupona by Chris

Juzhin is a downtempo artist from Moscow putting out some really amazing music… and he’s giving it away for free on Soundcloud, so get in there before the rest of the world discovers him.

Tupona is a pleasurable mix of acoustic sounds. I’m guessing there are samples in there because I can hear the pop and crackle of vinyl. It’s really neat stuff, a laid back fusion of chamber-jazz and ambient; artfully crafted in a way that pushes Jason May (the man behind the music) beyond the negative stigma of ‘producer’ and into the respectful realm of being a ‘musician’. That said, everything is well produced to a very professional quality, and although his soundcloud following may be small, you can safely bet Juzhin is no stranger to being played through the headphones of many.

John Arnold – Cabin Fever by Chris

Cabin Fever is an acid jazz track with a steady latin-esque beat that could have you dancing, or alternatively sitting back sipping cocktails.

The choice is yours… because Cabin Fever doesn’t mind either way.

Grammatik – Is It Over by Chris

Signed to Pretty Lights’ own record label, it’s not really a surprise that if you are a fan of the former, Grammatik will suit your tastes perfectly. Chilled trip-hop beats with funky jazz vocal samples spicing things up in Is It Over is something reminiscent of Pretty Lights’ tracks such as Finally Moving or the previously posted Something’s Wrong.

Definatley worth a listen if you love Pretty Lights or are completely new to the style- either way, Grammatik is still great, and you can support him by downloading his album (FOR FREE) off of the Pretty Lights Music Record Label site.

Ofcourse you can try him out first with a download from here 😀
