Melting Pot Germany Vinilo y CD

Review: Filofilx is a classy beatmaker who has been turning out some top notch albums for a while. His last one was Close Distance on the Melting Pot label out of Germany back in April and now come, we assumed based on the shared title, some of the key cuts that we can only assume never made the album. Elements of soul, funk, downtempo, jazz, Balearic and R&B all get mixed up in his studio and out com the sort of lush beats that you hope never end.

Flofilz is at the heart of the contemporary beat making scene. He has turned out some super dreamy and inviting albums in the last few years and this is his latest. It comes on Melting Pot outta Germany and as ever draws inspiration from soul, funk, downtempo, jazz, Balearic and R&B. All of those get tipped into a cauldron, stirred around carefully and pull out the other side as heart melting, often romantic hip hop beats. The noosing chords lend themselves oblate night listening, but the aching vocals also make this one for lovers.

Review: Lesky and Waywell is a pairing made up of a German lo-fi heavyweight and a UK guitarist. Mesame (which is Georgian for "the third") is a lush new soundtrack to sun kissed pool parties, with all the smart samples and hooky melodies you need to make for a classic afternoon. Soothing guitars site next to lazy beast, with plenty of classy yacht rock vibes and neo soul keys, trap-staled drums and tunes which draw on the Indian concept of the third eye chakra which "provides higher consciousness and perception beyond ordinary sight and refers to the psychedelic influences surrounding the album sound."
