Onra shifts his sound from this introspective kinda abstract beats Like on his
Chinoiseries and
108 releases for the
Favorite label, from his home country, to a much more electro funky swingbeat kinda sound which refers more to
Dam Funk. The record starts with this collab with Washington native
Olivier DaySoul. It's amazing funky in a vintage kinda way. The synth bass is dominant as the vintage chorus lines are. It's all 80ies feel is real but also a bit confusing because we bought an
Onra 12 inch. The voice of
Olivier DaySoul is so warm... you might remember him from voicing on
Hudmo' recent
Just Decided (from the
Butter LP).
Rock On is so bass thick when it starts (same kinda bass synth) with reverse sucking hi-hats killin it.... The voice samples are making you hype...
High Hopes is voiced by
Reggie B who released on Circulations in the past, has a warm R&B soul style which fits good in this 80ies feel.
I have to think about this one. I like the record but i'ts difficult to find
Onra on this one. Confused? I hope the 2LP later in May gives a, better, insight on the new directions....

Our
LowridersDropp events have a focus on the abstract beats/hip hop scene. We are treating ourselves and hopefully you on a dope line-up. After our first edition with names that has grown status wise since then (
1000names and
Debruit) we are going to treat you on some excellent producers:
Mwëslee and
Dynooo teaming up with our own
Coco Bryce and
Bluntspeakers.
Beatnologic will host the show as residential dj.
Mwëslee is from west coast Spain and you should know him from his releases on
Rush Hour: The first
Beat Dimensions with
Un Joder Suave and the
Megaplast EP for
Rush Hour's sub label
Nod Navigators. He just released the amazing
Eurocarne for
Nod Navigators which, if you haven't bought it yet, will blow you away! Read our review
here.
Dynooo from Ghent, Belgium, was also on the first
Beat Dimensions as
Dyno with
Reign. After this track
Dynooo has been a busy man. Releasing tracks on a range of label amongst the compiler for
Citywurl alongside
LeftO, one of Belgium's 'other' leftfield hip hop producers.
Dynooo just released the already acclaimed
Gum Dragon EP with some amazing beat bangers on it... and some collab of our friends from Liege
Bretzel Zoo (aka
Herrmutt Lobby). He also runs a dope shop called
Mac Fly.
Next to these producers we also give room to two friends who are very busy also within the Lowriders parameters.
Coco Bryce has joined the ranks of the Lowriders team. Ever since his
Myor (his own label)
release with
Slugabed his star has been rising. Releases on
Harmonia, Error Broadcast, Astro:Dynamics and soon on
Lowriders Recordings and much more to come.
Coco Bryce moves gently between Skweee and abstract beats with a dj history in hip hop and tekno!
Bluntspeakers has also been close to the Lowriders family ever since his
LowridersDropp performance last year and is part of the BMU crew. This native Rotterdam producer moves also in between styles with the greatest ease. Hip hop beats for rappers, smooth R&B -ish candy and even some banging dubstep. He is gifted with a perfect ear and has the control over daring crooked beats. Released Alaska for
applejbreak He just started his digital label called Bluntsports which will focus on young talented producers!
Residential
Beatnologic has an ear for warm soulful productions and handles the controls of the dj set like no other, he takes djing to another level.
