In Rare Form, Vol. 2

Eighteen tracks of dusty, instrumental hip-hop that strip away the vocals to reveal the intricate architecture of soul-sampling and cinematic drum breaks.

The perfect set of beats for when you need to get things done but still want to feel like you're in a noir film.

A focused, soulful urban meditation that balances rhythmic drive with nostalgic warmth.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the drum break on 'Peace of What' snaps with a dry, wooden resonance that anchors the swirling soul samples.

The transition into 'Up in the Clouds' where the atmosphere shifts into a more ethereal, floating synth texture.

The intricate layering of 'Saboteur' where multiple melodic loops weave together without ever feeling cluttered.
