EYEYY JAWNWAYNEE + UCLA Reggae Jazz Fest

Just spotted one of our favorite miscreant beats-rhymes-liver Jonwayne postin' on the Facebook:


We'll be hittin' that, yes.


Also, I went to the first day of the UCLA Reggae Jazz festival yesterday - a report for y'all on Thundercat, Sonnymoon, Booker T. Jones and more when I get my photos developed.


Here's a track from Thundercat to tide you over, get your summer vibes on if they aren't on full steam yet.




Cheeeeeeeers

M. Constant - Bugged EP


So it's been a while (like always), but I have something quite compelling to present: Boston-based M. Constant's Bugged EP... four originals, three remixes, and a bunch of funky punch. This man's style treads a wobbly line between beats and dance, getting your head nodding and your booty shaking, usually at the same time. Its a bit like rubbing your stomach and patting your head, but even more satisfying. These beats (?) are creative and organic, morphing style and feeling right underneath your feet...  but M. Constant keeps it all tied together in a very musical way. I could go into more detail, but I'd rather let him speak for himself below. 


If you like what you hear, be sure to cop it. 


O'er n out
