OK Joy - Typewriter Beats

What's up STBB?

Got a new tape for you for free download on Thursday August 29th, 2019. All material from 2014, 1 year earlier than my last tape. Being mostly Hip Hop, it's not as diverse as the previous one but I decided to release this one after because I like these songs better. This track Calzone is my ode to the Westcoast.

Here's another one, some organic guitar hop.

I live in a neighbourhood about 45 minutes from Vancouver. We call it the forest because there's a lot of parks and trees out here.

Dope, looking forward to the tape on the 29th!!

Thanks Waxramble!

So here it is people, Typewriter Beats. The concept is just the drum machine as a typewriter, typing up sampled messages and sending them off into the world. This time around Hashbrown and I collaborated on the album art, but the bird pic was still taken by my Dad as usual. Sampled from #Jazz, #Soul and #Rock records. With every tape I try to include a lot of different vibes so hopefully you'll hear something you like.

thanks for listening Joa! much appreciated. It's really interesting you mentioned those 2 tracks cuz I wouldn't have picked those as my favs from this

Congrats on the release, the album art is dope by the way

Really like the drum on BBQ! I know it's short but Intrigue is my favorite one, would be dope to hear an extended version of this. Getting repeats from me today at work in the meantime :lol:
