The homie Suff Daddy is about to slap you upside the head with his third (and probably best) album already. This weed smokin’, gin drinkin’ motherf*cker from Berlin has really outdone himself with “Suff Sells”. Big up to David for really evolving musically and stunning me with not only the drunken boom bap beats we’ve grown so fond of, but also with his wide range of influences. I hear a lot of Jazz, Soul and Funk influences which are really working well I think. One of the most impressive jams on here is of course “Det2bln” featuring Phat Kat and Elzhi, so listen to a little preview. Album drops June 1st and is available digitally right now. Both vinyl & CD can be pre-ordered on his Bandcamp page as well.

Waajeed has been blessing the world with previously unreleased material for quite a while, but when we heard he was going to put this “Deep Inside” remix featuring Sa-Ra Creative Partners out there, we were psyched. This particular Belle Isle remix was on a PPP mix CD, they had sold at shows and features Selan on the boards. We’d like to thank Jeedo for deciding to put this one out there for everyone to enjoy.

Long before Moovmnt even existed there was plenty of good music to go around. One of these wonderful songs was sent our way by Mr. Sousa from Rotterdam earlier this week. To be honest I had never heard of House of 909, but after having heard “The Blandford Superfly” I’m glad I now have. Right here we have a beautiful mix of soulful House, Jazz and Funk which you will undoubtably love! The single is availble on in case you were wondering.

To celebrate their ninth birthday, Jazz re:freshed decided to cobble together some of the better recorded tracks from over the past years as a free downloadable gift to say thank you. Not only do these recordings capture the spirit and passion for the music that the Jazz re:freshed patrons have, but they also give you a good idea of what the vibe and energy is like at these Jazz re:freshed nights. They named the album “Prelude” because they have upgraded the sound system at the venue and are now able to record bands at a much higher quality. Making this album a prelude to their Jazz re:freshed Live Series which is coming soon. Now here’s a music night in London we will definitely be visiting during our next visit.

Today we bring you a warm summer breeze in the form of “Overshadowed”. Really feeling this Atjazz dub remix he did for South African House producer Jullian Gomes. Some of you out there still need to get in the mood for summer I reckon, so we hope this will do the trick. This will be out on vinyl next week so if you’d like to own a copy visit Juno.

When my homie DJ Blue told me about self taught composer/writer/arranger/producer, Ahmed Sirour, I took the time out to listen to his latest “The After 2am Sessions” LP. Ahmed is from Brooklyn NY and released his EP a year ago utilizing 3 themes of love: the romantic, the erotic, and the spiritual. He added 6 brand new songs and turned his EP into a full album.

So at the moment our southern neighbor Lefto is visiting Japan and unveiling or sorts of new music from the land of the rising sun. One little gem I picked up thanks to him was the same titled Jazz Collective album. It’s kinda avant-garde Jazz (which normally I’m not that big on) but as a whole I think this project is something well worth exploring. There is one amazing song on there called “Renovation” that you all should hear. Make sure you support by visiting 0r their Bandcamp page.
