Mixtape Mondays with the bros from Paper Plane Project. These dudes have just dropped a solid mix paying homage to the electric piano. The mix focuses on current international soul/jazz-infused hip hop and beats all made using their favourite instrument. I remember the first time PPP came through Stolen Records with hype brewing around their first album, since then they have continued to push and evolve their own unique sound, Finishing off a second instant classic album called Miles Apart. Which by the way you can cop on their bandcamp here MILES APART.
Wow can’t believe i was so late to jump on this especially considering i have a bunch of homies representing. Amazing peek into some of Sydney’s finest up and coming and established beatmakers. Big love to Well dressed vandals for making it happen. IM stay up. Free download here. Ghetto Ambience Summer 2012
