The Heliocentrics - Collateral Damage
Heard this piece on Tuesday night on the Jamie Cullum show on BBC radio 2. The album, 13 Degrees of Reality, took about 4 years to make due to Malcom Catto’s extensive schedule as a session musician.

DeeB - Thru Clouds
Nice chilled jazz hip-hop.
Found DeeB on the Free Music Archive. Cool place to find music if you want to find something new.
Donald Byrd - Cristo Redentor
Nice jazz tune by the late Donald Byrd. Sadly I discovered this due to his death, but nevertheless a great track and will be digging more.
Fat Freddy’s Drop - This Room
Apparently this version is as heard on Gilles Peterson’s BBC Sessions. Personally this is the version I prefer, although many comments seem to suggest otherwise. The acoustic intro with the offbeat electronics and echo sounds give this version a slightly more dreamy sombre tone. The bass that comes in around 1.50 is a fine example of how music should have an element of the unexpected in it.
Another FFD tune which has lots of dynamic and influences, including Dallas Tamaira’s soulful voice.
