bluestaeb: everything is always a process
Francisco Espregueira
Connection Paris - Berlin. Bluestaeb just released his third solo album Everything Is Always a Process, a smooth neo soul-induced epic featuring artists such as Noah Slee, Harleighblu, S. Fidelity and Melodiesinfonie, via one of the best music houses in Europe - Jakarta Records.
Everything Is Always a Process marks Bluestaeb's search of new influences and a new creative environment, moving from Berlin to Paris. Created between 2015 and early 2018, the album embodies the process of this transition - as well as collaboration with instrumentalists and vocalists from all over the world and recording in different studios in Paris, London & Berlin.
One of the key figures of a new generation of up and coming hip hop beatmakers, Bluestaeb has emancipated from genre thinking and instead merge old school aesthetics with a new school attitude and organic instrumentation. In 2015, his critically acclaimed sophomore album Rodalquilar (also via Jakarta Records), he set a blueprint for this approach by combining warm samples, futuristic synth melodies and tight drum programming.
Everything Is Always a Process is available for purchase in digital and vinyl formats. It's one of the highly awaited releases of 2018. Now that is out, let's just play it and enjoy. On repeat.
