We got some brand new music from Amsterdam’s finest – La Melodia – (by way of Eindhoven). Productional genius I.N.T. and sexy miss Melodee take you on a ride full of “Electronic Love”. I dare you to fall in love with these 7 raw, sexy hiphop joints. Shouts to Nalden for the support, Rush Hour for the distribution and Baschz for the artwork. With the use of AR (Augmented Reality) the artwork comes to life and becomes the first vinyl artwork featuring this technology! You can download extra bonus material by holding the album artwork in front of your webcam. For all the digital freaks visit La Melodia’s Bandcamp or get your vinyl freak on over at Rush Hour.

When our colleagues at Laidback Radio asked us to do the ‘Pick of the Week’, we were like lets do this! Now our very first pick is one that we are truly very excited about. We’ve been friends with Jay Hats for a while and admire his musical genius. Just like LaMelodia, Jay is also from Eindhoven. And next to being a producer, he’s also a sound engineer.

Jay Hats’ music is best described as a crossing between tropical world music (loaded with frantic percussion) and contemporary club music. Jay’s music sounds like an honest breath of fresh air on a warm summer night and we dare you to take a dive into this tropical, future vintage. Let Jay take you on a trip around the world with a wide variety of arrangements cleverly blended into one album.

Together with Jay we’ve been working on getting his debut album the release it deserves and we are happy to inform you that it will be out this summer. Stay tuned on more music from the tall man…soon! Keep smiling bro..oh and follow Jay on Twitter or Facebook!

I.N.T.

Producer I.N.T. has been at it for a while. Known for his soulfull touch in hiphop one could find his 1st release back in ’93. In 2004 he released his first 12” as the producer for Melodee, on their own La Melodia Records. This well received 12” will lead to a Melodee album, which is almost completely produced by I.N.T. Next to hiphop this producer is also busy with exploring new styles of music. For instance the leftfield side; which resulted in his first solo release on the Nod Navigors project. Besides producing I.N.T. has also been active as a DJ in the underground scene of hiphop for quite some years. Recently one can also find him in the urban scene, as this artist is always looking for new musical imput and challenges. It is clear that we haven’t heard the last of I.N.T: as it appears he has a bright future ahead of him.
