blue lab beats: xover
The London underground scene is evident in Xover. And we're all over Blue Lab Beats at the moment. It took some time until we were relaxed enough and peacefully listening to this amazing first full-length album that sums up a couple of years of original creations. Before, Blue Skies EP and Freedom EP caught our attention. There was something truly special being prepared. And they present us Xover.
It’s 16 tracks long, which seems like a lot, but each track brings something unique to the table. Collaborating with some of London’s finest people (Kojey Radical, Moses Boyd, Nubya Garcia, Femi Koleoso, Melo-Zed and many others), this teenage duo produced one of the best albums of the year so far. The record puts a unique spin on jazz and neo soul vibes with the hip hop culture, somehow, omni-present. An amazing debut. Creative, new, inspiring. We leave you with a broken-beat remix of "Say Yes".
