Sometimes I stare in space… Here’s this new beat I made just now. Tears in space

My man Kasimir used to make monthly compilations of new tracks. It was a great way to discover good new music, without having to wade through tons of new releases. I trust his judgement and taste, and for me, his compilations show that there is still a lot of great Hip-Hop out there amidst all the mediocrity. It is by no means a selection of exclusives and never before heard new and unreleased tracks. The tracks don’t even necessarily have come out in the last month, it’s just new music we like. Last week he dropped a new one, the first since 2 years. We’ll try to make this a monthly thing from now on! Download all the tracks in a zip file here.

And here’s a small preview…
De La Soul – La La La
Flomega & The Ruffcats – Pay Me Right (Suff Daddy Remix)
Strong Arm Steady – Get Ya Money Right
Royce da 59 – Hood Love (feat. Bun B & Joell Ortiz)
Lykke Li – Little Bit (Feat. Drake & Mickey Factz).

A couple of months ago I made this beat Be someone new. It was the first post of this blog, actually. The song I have sampled it from is one of the tunes in this great mix I’ve been listening to of soul songs from the early 60′s by DJ Miguel Vargas (via Domeshots And Fat Laces). And no, I did not sample it from the mp3. I actually digged for this record and own it on vinyl… echte beatmakers weten toch .
