Today we celebrate the release of LA-based beatsmith AshTreJinkins inaugural album on Leaving Records, helmed meticulously by fellow American producer Matthewdavid.
Deploying 11 tracks of gritty lo-fi beat work and scuzzed out electronics, ‘It’s Trash Now‘ explores muffled strains of leftfield hip-hop – reminiscent of Matthewdavid’s ‘Outmind‘ released on Brainfeeder in 2011 – presenting a murky reflection of the producers penchant for abstracted beats and lucid dreamscapes.
‘Out The Way, In The Mix‘ is a masterstroke of simmering slowed down funk, skittering hip-hop and fractured downtempo ambiance, resulting in a hazy amalgamation of sandpaper strewn beat-driven music.
‘It’s Trash Now’ is scheduled for release 1st December via Leaving Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
