Just a nice little gem I found on Soundcloud a while ago (audio)

I've had this one sitting around for awhile but because of the surplus of good music that had been going on over the last week, it kind of kept getting shuffled to the bottom of the pile. But now that nothing's really jumping out at me at the moment, I figured I'd go back to this gem that popped up randomly on Soundcloud.

I don't really have a lot to say on this other than it's one of those beat tracks that scratches all of my itches: it's got a solid groove, some nice little unpredictable change-ups, a bit of atmosphere while being jazzy at the same time, and no shortage of keys, bass, drums, and horns. It's basically the complete package for me and I definitely look forward to hearing more from these guys.

Exotic!! Would love to find out how to produce such sounds :)

Looking at the description of the song, I was actually quite surprised that the song uses a lot of live instrumentation. But yeah, I hear ya on that.

This is nice!

Just bumped into a new release on Ghostly records, Shigeto. Thought of you when I heard: When we low, and In Case you forgot. + A2D

You should check it out!

Man, I have no idea why but Shigeto is name that I know but constantly keeps slipping my mind. I'll definitely be on the lookout now though.

nice song

That’s a really super cool sound. Reminds me to back in MY days:)

Amazing tune with jazzy vibes :-)

Glad you dig it.

you're welcome, bro :-)

Awesome beats although the mix could use a little bit of work imho

Which elements?

Well this is entirely subjective, it actually sounds great the way it is.
I would pull back on the kick a little bit, it's quite overbearing, especially in the beginning.
Maybe the same with the keys at the end of the track.
The balance between percs and melody is great, and I really like the way you've use the stereo field. Not a bad mix by a long shot, just not the mix I would have gone for.

I gotcha. Thanks for your input though. I also just read your profile description, so now I got a better idea where you're coming from, haha!
