Kind of Dope goes all LoFi Hip Hop with this haunting Miles Davis style muted trumpet led ballad. Piano harmonies to die for and an old skool tenor sax vibrato lusharoony, ably supporting the trumpet. Dope shows their ability to set mood and keep it locked. Lush.

Solo is one of those mind poems conjuring a lonely night in the neon lights and gentle misty drizzle in a far-off City of lost souls. Nowhere particular to go.

The sound design resonates in and around the space to add to the mystery and calm. All this then passes through multiple filters
Composed before current events but unnamed, SoundTrack SoundSystem found the sonics of this Tenor sax led Jazz Ballad with added beats resonant with the daily news from Ukraine and decided to name it Kyiv. Sounding like its been lifted out of a 50s Noir and then been a bit mangled, space and moody melodies are
Kind of Dope return with something extra sexy. Organ, Tenor Sax, Flute and synths lay a deeply satisfying patchwork of engaging harmonies and melodies that travel nowhere in particular but definitely set the right mood for your chillin’ requirements when you’re looking for that slice of jazzy fusion with strong seventies undertones. This could, as
