SBKRT - surely

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

.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.

Hoodcats - One Pacifico Swing

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

.Instrumentals: Mapzzz- One Pacifico Swing

..Last night was the first time in months that I was able to sleep with open windows, breathing in fresh air and having an amazing, deep slumber.  Maybe that dream-like-coma state is why I feel the need to surround myself with ambient jazz Instrumentals like this crazy jam from Mapzzz: “One Pacifico Swing” from his EP: Hoodcats, that blends the throwback Mark Morrison jam “Return of the Mack” into this jazzy, put-of-this-world beat.  Enjoy!

Cruise Control

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

.Instrumentals: Brock Berrigan- “Cruise Control”

“Englewood, N.J. producer Brock Berrigan has officially firmly planted himself on our radar here at Potholes with the release of one hell of a new single, “Cruise Control”. The track finds the clearly meticulous beatsmith utilizing some killer panning techniques — just listen how those horns exhale from right to left — and some equally fresh drums I’m particularly fond of the hi-hats that seem to be triggered on the spot, which leaves me to think dude created this in a single take.

Stream the track below. It stems from Berrigan’s new album, which drops this Monday.” [PotholesInMyBlog.com]

     Full Crate and FS Green have to be the most soulful act coming out of Amsterdam.    This production duo have been embedded in my speakers since summer, and with each new work, it is evident that they are not going anywhere.  Talk about an infusion of soul, funk and overall VIBE, from the ‘Mixing Monthly’ features (which I reccommend for ANYone to check out), to their recent work with Jesse Boykins III, Full Crate and FS Green maintain a consistent, tangible soul vibe with every project.  Clicking the image brings you to a direct playlist of their 22 newest tracks.  Once there, you’ll enjoy the musical remixes and orginal jams featuring artists like: Mary J.

.Instrumentals: Mecca 83- Life Sketches Vol. 1&2

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.

.OFFICE-BEATS: Sam Champ Remix Instrumentals

  Throughout the week, I think it is important to be able to stream music that is not only appropriate for working in an office but music that is also stimulative of productivity, the kind of beats you can knock your head back and forth to while you respond to emails, write proposals, edit spreadsheets, and everything else associated with our young-adult worklife. 

……With that being said, I am starting a new collection within HerHeartBeatz called OFFICE -BEATS.  

Our first installment of OFFICE - BEATS comes from Sam Champ’s close work with remixes of some of our favorite soul music tracks.  His remix EP was released Dec 2010, and just now he released the instrumental version of his remix EP.  Visit his Bandcamp, link below to check out all of his smooth projects.  Enjoy
