‘The First Day’ is the debut album from French producer Will Galland,
aka Quiet Dawn. Since signing to First Word in 2014, Quiet Dawn has
released two singles, ‘New Dawn’ featuring Oddisee (featuring a remix
from Eric Lau) and the more recent ‘Golden Moments’ featuring Sarah
Gessler. These served as the perfect introduction to QD’s style, with
jazz, hip-hop and broken beat influences combined to create something
that is very much his own sound......

peeped me some beats by Eric Lau and they were very nice, i heard some more tunes (check out at the blog) a while ago but this beat is really meeting my taste. Vibing, energetic and hits the central theme. (Also Crusie Control was really dope. FreshyFreshFreezy.
Nice and smooth. Put this on your Ipod and take a ride around the block. Eric Lau will be releasing his new instrumental album on the 27th of September.
Good shit.

Fact Magazin:The young Turkish singer, full name Ahu Kelesoglu, has already built up quite a reputation for her collaborations with Flying Lotus, Mr Beatnick and others – it was she, under the name Dolly, who contributed the sublime, dusky vocal to Flying Lotus’s ‘Robertaflack’. Increasingly focussing on solo work inspired by house, techno, the golden age of jazz singers, European movie soundtracks and much else besides, we reckon Ahu’s really going to be one to watch in the months and years that lie ahead. We took the opportunity to ask her a few questions, and she reciprocated not only with some informative answers but with an exclusive mixtape for FACT as well. A wonderful audio tour of our girl’s formative influences and current interests alike, it includes music from Brigitte Bardot, Daedalus and Matthew Herbert, not to mention two unreleased tracks by Portishead’s Beth Gibbons. Listen, read and enjoy.
