Jazz and house newcomer some trumpet, some keys, and some samples, with solid beats and melodies for his debut 12 inch. Hailing from the NYC, Kareem created eight tunes that show off his imaginative composing skills.
Can you feel it: The experience begins with jazzy chords and Kareem on the trumpet. The jazzy feelings continue as the trumpet sounds over the 7th chords.
Sands of Time: Synth melodies rain out as the beat drops and builds. A bassline appears for a second to provide a groovy intermission.
Flavor: Bouncing melodies begin as percussion strikes that leads into chords. Later voices filter into the background as another melody line sneaks into the mix.
Deep Space: Flowing arpeggios begin as a bass line and other synth lines appear to cause a mystical swelling of sounds. No beats, all heart.
In Orbit: The second side begins with crunchy beats and 7th chords. Trumpet notes ring out and flow, and the B section quickly appears, and then right back to a section.
Heart: Fast jazzy sample appears as the bpm is pushed up to give a nice flavor and variety to the vinyl. Short and sweet tune for the heads.
Solid: Classic drums start to action, quickly followed by arpeggios and a pulsating bass sound. Head-knotting tune.
Portal: To end this this release, a bass sound begins and quickly joined by drums. The bass melody continues to ride in the forefront meanwhile supported by a vocal sample. Later a chord progression comes in and takes it deep.
