Urban Species & Imogen Heap - Blanket

Blanket


Genre: Acid Jazz (Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop)


Urban Species is actually a British hip hop band in the late 90's. This song in particular with Imogen Heap was actually made in 1998. It's actually a really old track but my god does it have such a nice beat. The  collaboration just works so well together. Took me quite a while to find this song but glad to be able to share it now :)

(I highly recommend this album, turns out a lot of people play this at bars and lounges to set the environment. If you'd like to support this artist, you can purchase his album Blanket on amazon.)




**On another note, I'd like to thank all of you who have been visiting my blog, I am truly happy to know that there are people who have similar music tastes as I do. I highly encourage you to comment and let me know what kind of songs you want to hear, improvements you want to see on this site (like what should I do with my layout?), or anything else that's on your mind! I actually do read every comment :) My apologies if me not replying makes me seem like a stalker, but ya, if there are actually questions I will definitely answer them! and finally, spread the word about this blog if you'd like to share the love and have other people listen to awesome music too, not the usual repetitive sounds on the radio!

    For those who are more into rock and metal, I shall try to find some cool ones to share on this website as well, the only ones I listen to that I can recall are Coheed & Cambria and Rise Against, but I'm sure you guys probably already know of these two bands :(
