yU "Dreams" feat. Danedra Rowell

I really dig this joint. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

The A-side of the next installment in Mello Music Group’s 7” Series comes from Diamond District/1978er producer/emcee yU.

Enlisting Danedra Rowell on vocals, yU eschews the new age boom-bap that got him noticed for something closer to all of our heartstrings. Featuring no rapped bars, “Dreams” is a bittersweet ballad that is less literal than emotive. It captures that late-night, pensive feeling us music heads are very familiar with.  yU is able to craft a sound that is universal and hyper-local, breaking new ground for himself musically.

Peeling back yet another layer of sound from his extensive pallet, yU is proving his versatility as a musician.

HAZ SOLO x MAIYA NORTON "POLYESTER & WHISKEY"

Smooth. Solid. Enjoy.

This project came about by me asking Maiya to send me a mix of songs that I could sample to produce a beat tape. She was super down! She actually had a mix ready for me within a few days. A few ideas got thrown around. Including titles. And we end up with Polyester & Whiskey. A 12 beat x 12 song mix project. -Haz Solo
