.Instrumental: SBTRKT- Surely
This energizing beat was a bonus album track from SBTRKT, leaked yesterday and spread over the internet like wildfire. Don’t let the dubstep bass line hit you too hard when it drops. Great blending of chimes and organs over the beat.

OFFICE BEATS CERTIFIED.
Mecca 83 is tough. Period. Play track 2, “Together(ness)” and tell me your head isn’t knocking. These beats are stand out in a time of many instrumental beat tapes, a balanced bland of true soul boom bap and spacey new aged keyboard. Or, as he refers to his sound: Acousmatic / Tape music / Experimental / Hip Hop.

Frank Ocean- Thinkin Bout You (SBTRKT unofficial edit)
::HerHeartBeatz Electronic/Soul Pick of the Week! :
The combination of Frank Ocean’s winning falsetto paired over a deeply saturated bass line by London producer SBTRKT, is undeniably ear-catching. The remix catapults the smooth RnB track into the eerie post-dubstep world.

With Golden Glasses Full Crate takes the listeners to the dancefloor off course in his own groovy way. Various styles of tracks
Full Crate is on the forefront of Dutch progressive electronic music. Also the Red Bull Music Academy acknowledged his talents and invited him to come together with likeminded people for two weeks worth of recording sessions, lectures by musical luminaries, and late night jams (only 60 artists worldwide has received this invitation).
Since the buzz, which started in 2009 with his independent free release of “She was Fly” Full Crate has worked with artists like Eric Roberson, AB (Black Milk), Ntjam Rosie, Daru Jones, Jesse Boykins III and others. [Soundcloud.com]

Soulful House, Lounge/Chill-Out, RnB, HipHop, Broken beat and Nu-Jazz are the categories that Ben Westbeech’s latest album “There’s More To Life Than This” falls into. It’s an enjoyable, uptempo collection of music that slides in perfectly when you need a break from average electro or average soul music. Each song is high quality resulting in an album that will stand the test of time. This is definitely going to be a classic in my collection.
www.benwestbeech.comRecorded in Berlin, New York, London, Bristol, Munich, Stockholm and Stuttgart with producers Motor City Drum Ensemble, Redlight, Georg Levin, Chocolate Puma, Midland, Soul Clap and Henrik Schwarz, the album marries Ben’s songwriting and soul/jazz instincts with a house edge provided by some of the scenes leading producers and the result is a harmonious, elegant and above all, individual set.
