Mostly new jazzy beats & breaks from :

Opener from Ann Arbor Michigan beatmaker and occasional FlyLo collaborator Sam Baker aka SAMIYAM’s new EP Man and Machine, with clanky slack beats. Buy from Boomkat.

The first Poo-Bah release of ‘09 is given over to the excellent Samiyam under the coordination of cosmic trooper Ras G. ‘Man vs. Machine’ follows up his recent Hyperdub killer with one of the best examples of the LA beat scene we’ve heard this year, featuring Samiyam in a purely esoteric mode, shaping seven woozy analog bumpers with a blend of stop-starting 8-bit edit techniques, booming bass drops and that skunked-out LA slacker character that defines so much of his work.

London beatmakers Obba Supa’s To:AM Free:AM, which went largely unnoticed until I gave them a second chance yesterday and clicked with it.

The diabolical rhyme dynamics of Teknical Developments lyrics paired with beats cloaked in a blue cheese fog of THTC from Hey!zeus dwell and celebrate in the time of A.M. A time which reveals the full existence of the human cypher in its entirety, From the crooked corrupt cloaked by its shadows to the optimism of dreams and a new days break. TO.AM is a dedication to the time FREE.AM is an experiment in the freedoms of the infant hours Two separate organism from the same body of concept naturally evolved from late night studio sessions all past the hour of midnight.

Hull City producer Pat D’s new full length on A Bridge Too Far Recordings called “Soulscapes & Jazz Breaks“. Collaboration with Lady Paradox as the MC, crisp jazzy beats and oldschool breaks on this one.

And an alltime classic from AFTA-1’s 2008 release Aftathoughts Vol. 1 “Quest”
