Audio: Bilal - Robots (Remy LBO Remix feat Blu)

Bilal - Robots Remix Project by Plug Research
Plug Research released a remix EP for Bilal´s Robots some time ago. All of the mixes are dope but the Remy LBO Remix feat Blu is the only one for free. So take this as a present and get the others if you´re willing to pay a little.

Documentary: Art Pepper - Notes From A Jazz Survivor

When I was young I thought Jazz is something for the well situated, older people who like to sit at home listening to that harmless tootling. Then, when I got a bit older I grabbed Coltrane´s "Impressions" and Hancock´s "speak like a child" from my mum´s crates and realized that the music is actually extremely wild and intense. But somehow I still had an image of an reputable disciplined musician in mind (maybe because of the fine suites). So I was shocked getting to know some of the jazz greatest biographies. And still, I find it quite funny that a lot of the prudent upperclass listen to music of some hardcore drug addicts. 

Notes of a jazz survivor allowes an intimate view in the life of an jazzlegend. Although I´m not his biggest fan I liked this well filmed documentary with and about Art Pepper.
