WKND BEATS #8:
Hi-Res –
Beats For The Ride

Fresh w/ something new for this autumn,
the WKND Beats series rides on -
with its latest (ed/add)ition being from its first repeat contributor,
the PRTLND-raised & as of recently, SoCal-based, Hi-Res.

With his last solo offering, 1080 Beats (aka WKND #6),
being released over two years ago -
& a good amount of steady emails coming into the site ever since
asking & pleading for more – seem even concernedly so,
this new set show&proves that Res definitely wasn’t fxckin around during his time off.

Despite it being his most compact offering to date,
it still manages to bare a wider range of styles than ever before;
his repertoire now including a few upbeat joints
that venture a little bit closer to the eclectic dance side of things -
surely ripe for the Ableton beatsets of the day -
as well, of course, w/ a few more nighttime-ish smokey headnodders
& that perfect, extended hidden album track/beat interlude feel
that we’ve come to know him for.

Always one for the straightfwd,
he’s dubbed this set simply Beats For The Ride.
But take that as a mere suggestion,
& do what them what & where you will.

Below you can preview 3 outta the 9 in this set
before downloading the full project below.

& be on the lookout for a follow-up to the New Chill
rap project w/ partner-in-crime, DaveNotti,
to come out… uhh… eventually.
Those two take for-EVER w/ their shit,
but it’ll be worth it tho.
