DJ Cam Quartet - Saint Germain des Prés Café 9 (2007)


It has been an amazing summer so far I have to say, so here's some chill summer tunes. This is off the ninth edition of a nu-jazz compilation released regularly in France. The second disc of this set is 10 songs from DJ Cam with a nice jazz influence. Enjoy the sunshine.

Bonobo - One Offs...Remixes & B-Sides (2002)


This is a b-sides album where nothing really sounds like b-sides. All quality and all smoked out, this little release from '02 is perfect for late night listening.

Deceptikon - Lost Subject (2004)



I've only recently heard of Deceptikon and this album seems like a good introduction, considering it's his first LP. It is full of tight drums backing soft keys and floating samples, creating a nice contrast. May it bring you darkness.

Dert - Talk Strange (2008)


I've been listening to so much of this guy lately I can't decide what to post, so I went with my first. An eighteen track beat tape inspired by Bjork. Dert has some nice cuts on this that make it worth multiple listens. He's made it available for free on last.fm as well.


More full albums from Dert here and here.
