So is the one in the previous post, Oscar Mbo.Black Coffee [south african outfit?]
Sorry that one didn't work, I guess Soundcloud does regional licensing too. I sometime get 'not available in your region' on YouTube videos posted here, I guess it's unavoidable.^^^I was thinking about the snippets thing on SoundCloud...and here we go again...

...And this time I will go to learn more. afaik, I've never seen that msg/link before. I only know it's the big corporate distribution companies that cause it and I have to go to Youtube if I really want to hear it.
[Did I ever mention that I dislike big corporate record companies like I did since forever, and...]

Holloway - Into the 00's EP
View attachment 208804
Edition of 300 vinyl:
shallnotfade.bandcamp.com/album/into-the-00s-ep
Two years after his label debut, Holloway returns to the Time Is Now catalogue with four tracks which, whilst all offering a taste of nostalgia, do so in diverse ways, making it a release at once multifarious and holistic.
Since the release of ‘Some Days’ EP back in June 2020, Holloway has gone from strength to strength. A monthly Balamii residency; releases on Earful of Wax and Bluff Records; and a wicked contribution to our first All Stars compilation have seen the London producer harness a distinct sound somewhere between soulful atmospherics and club-ready ruffage.
The title track on this EP is a succinct embodiment of this dualism. Luring you in is a wistful ambience which harks back to the blissed-out atmospherics of early iterations of D’n’B with a complex tapestry of guitar twangs and reverberating instrumentals that you can get lost in. This, nonetheless, is not long before the jazz-tinged skippy two-step drums come into their full force, bolstered by a rude bassline that adds another layer of depth. ‘Destiny’ follows suit. Syrup-smooth vocals which ooze nostalgia tickle the soul before a warped bass line adds a layer of ruffage and situates the track firmly within a club playlist.
The B-side takes things up a notch. ‘Ode to Shakeys’ is a dynamic, skippy speed garage banger whilst the aptly-named ‘Hypnotiq’ is a meditative take on jungle, peppered with tickles of piano and saxophone that evoke the sporadic nature of free jazz. The perfect closer.
Into the 00’s EP drops 24th June 2022.

! ahahahah! That's like what I thought. For the past year or so, I've skipped all the dnb/jungle in my feed.....I can't remember why I actually clicked on that one. Then my impression was that it's like "neo-dnb/jungle", not the usual cliches.That was great, I was in the mood for some jungle and didn't know it
The Soundcloud "Learn more" was quite useless. I know it's any artist/label that's distributed by Sony/Warner/UMG/BMG. ...I wonder why it's done by or on Soundcloud but not on Youtube. (Although there are a few instances on Youtube that show up here.)Sorry that one didn't work, I guess Soundcloud does regional licensing too. I sometime get 'not available in your region' on YouTube videos posted here, I guess it's unavoidable.
I started with hearing a remix of a Madonna [Ray Of Light] track in the car one night. ...Sasha..[?] ...which led to William Orbit's version of Adagio for Strings...and then we got more classical music.A trick I play for my "classically trained audiophile" friends.
I'll run Tiesto and Adagio-for-strings past them, and watch their body for signs of uncontrollable movement.
AHA! So you LIKE this! Here's a glowstick for your ride home!
