This is the best album of the year. It seems like the tunes always had to be performed like this. This is mindblowing in so many aspects.
Thanks to @Jameszooo and Asko Schönberg. Real art.

The third single of the Chispa EP “What U Say (I Want Beer)” is out today! It might be an unconventional club banger, with an odd 7/4 meter, but your classic four-to-the-floor vibe.

LAHRINSPIRATION #2: Xero Slingsby
Leeds Other Paper: "Do you see yourselves as part of the Jazz 'scene'?" Xero: "F*ck off. Why would we want to be? The Jazz 'scene' in England is so bloody snobby!
This is a cover of Xero Slingby’s version of The Allegroes. I really love the fact that it’s just a rhythm section, bass and drums, with alto sax. The sound is more open and gives more room to do freaky stuff.

This tune was originally inspired by Kanye's "Hell of a Life", and/or, the original sample by The Mojo Men - She's My Baby. I took the bass line and added a different melody to it. After all these years it's still great fun to play:

In case you want to start your Monday right, check out my “Free Swinging Jazz Dance” mix for Magical Mystery Mix, made 5+ years ago (!). Probably it was taken down due to copyright issues but I’ve re-uploaded it on my Mixcloud:

“Why Do You Look So Good in the Summer?” drops today!
Summer is around the corner: mini skirts appear, accidental sunburns and sand in places you don’t like. A track for your mini bluetooth speaker while you hang out with your friends, all acting cool.
