about

We’re proud to present our new compilation “First Light”, released in conjunction with our extended family Mellow Orange. Spanning 23 tracks, the compilation features some of the freshest and most innovative talent in the Hip Hop and Instrumental Beat scenes from around the globe.

From the 8bit inspired synths of Submerse’s “Makise’s Blips” to the boom-bap drums of Dutchy’s “This Could Be Us” and the jazz excursions of Mecca:83’s “Open”: First Light documents the diversity and constantly expanding sound of the scene. We think it’s one of our finest releases to date and we hope you do too.

Compiled by Mecca:83 & Yusai

"A perfect demonstration of the eclectic nature of the beat scene" WordIsBond

"ambient electronic beats, wavering synths and spacey funk: a compilation which brings a better understanding of the current beat scene" Wax Poetics JP
