Author: montrey

This is your Daily 2% – Chilled and Ready to Serve. We will try to bring you one “chill” track every day. This is for when you get home and you are trying to unwind. You reach for that glass of wine or that unlit Black & Mild or maybe you reach for something more herbal. This track is for those times. We will try to bring you at least one a day. We are just your milkmen and I’m here to make a delivery. Chill…..

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Gorillaz. Considering the fact that the this is about the time that the new Gorillaz album is dropping; i figured it would be fitting to pick a track from that album. The track i’m bringing to you today is called “Broken” which is of course off the album Plastic Beach.The album itself is already receiving mostly positive reviews and we here on Earmilk love the album and this track stood out to me and not just because its a little chiller than the rest but this song in particular seemed to draw massive amounts of imagery in my mind that others did not. Maybe it’s just me but regardless..check out the track and relax….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Martin Denny. Any fans of Exotica out there? The genre started in 1957 when Martin Denny released an album called Exotica which spawned a whole new type of music that involves sexy tropical island drums, animal sounds and a lounge feel. This is about the time the whole tiki craze started. A lot of real islanders were upset because this genre was nothing like the tropical environments at all but nonetheless I’m a fan of the genre. Today’s song is also actually called “Exotica” and its from the album Forbidden Island. This track should be played in the background as you mix drinks for the lady/guy friend and of course the drink of choice is a nice martini(chilled). Check out the track and relax?….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by the Scottish duo known as Boards of Canada. I think I’ve introduced these guys enough on here to go ahead and skip it this time. The track i’m bringing to you today is called “Twoism” and it’s from their album by the same name, Twoism, which takes you all the way back to 1995. If you aren’t familiar with these guys then I definitely want you to give this track ample time because you might not appreciate it right from the beginning but once it gets going you’re gonna love it. This track may be best for headphones or a pretty good sound system because its got some very nice ambient noise that is very layered. So listen to the track and chill…

Today’s delivery is brought to you by KJ Hines who hails from Austin Texas and the track i’m bringing to you today is about one of my favorite topics of all time. The track is called “Hi, Hello” and once you start listening to the track you’ll see why this deserves to be on a Daily 2% over here on Earmilk. Most of the tracks i’ve heard from this guy have been hot and this one is no different. If you dig the track leave a comment so I can get some feedback. Check out the track and chill….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Blu over an Exile beat. The track is called “LoveLine(s),DedicatedToLastFe’vrier” which is definitely a mouthful but fortunately its a mouthful of fine wine that’s been aged to perfection. Blu took the beat from Exile’s “Love Line” track off the album Radio and just goes to work on it with a smoothness that only Blu could accomplish. I’ve also included the original Exile track so you can really hear how smooth the beat is. It has bits of Exotica and Jazz mixed in that comes off so flawlessly through experimentation. So check out the tracks and chill….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Easy Star All-Stars. A lot of people were introduced to this group back in 2006 when they dropped the Radiohead cover album entitled Radiodread. The album was a filled with dubbed/reggae versions of classic Radiohead tracks and these guys really are able to keep the essence of the original song yet make the song their own. The track i’m bringing to you today is “Within You Without You” which features Matisyahu and its from their latest album entitled Easy Star’s Lonely Hearts Dub Band which is a tribute album to The Beatles’ album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.  The track is very trance-y and melodic but it is these qualities that make it worthy of a Daily 2%. You may be reminded of groups like Thievery Corporation when listening. Check out the track and chill….
