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 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….

Today’s delivery is brought to you by machinedrum featuring Nami Unreal. I came across machinedrum through a friend and I’m glad for that day because I havent listened to much IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) but the more I hear some the more I really love it. machinedrum hails from New York and much like Flying Lotus; he has produced music for Adult Swim interludes and we all know Adult Swim has some of the best music sprinkled throughout their programming. The song i’m bringing to you today is called “Roll & Feel” and its from macinedrum’s album entitled  want to 1 2? I’ve also included the music video with this song which is what really got me liking the song. The song also featurs Nami Unreal who is a j-pop/electronica artist that hails from Tokyo. This song really tries to put you in a little trance so check out the song and chill…

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Sade. In celebration for her latest album dropping yesterday; I thought it’d be a good idea to post one of my all time favorite songs of hers. The song i’m bringing to you today is called “Cherish the Day” and this version is from her live album entitled Lovers Live which came out in 2002. This live version shows just how versatile Sade’s voice is and how close it is to the studio version of the song. Hopefully she goes on tour for her latest album, Soldier of Love, because seeing her live would be a once in a lifetime type thing and I would make every effort to attend regardless of the location. I would suggest using this song for cruising in the car at night, sexy time or when you are about to sleep and you can put on the headphones. Check out the track and relax…

Today’s delivery is brought to you by one of my favorite reggae groups…Katchafire. The group pretty much started out as a Bob Marley tribute band and we’ve posted about this group before and pretty much all the tracks they produce are instant classics for me. The song i’m bringing to you today is called “Who You With” and its from their album entitled Revival. The reason I’m posting this one today is because I would really like to get feedback from our readers about the topic of the track. My friends and I have argued on whether the song is talking about marijuana or sex/condoms/hooking up. Really need some feedback on this one so if you listen to the track and you appreciate what we do here on the site then please leave a comment on what you think they are talking about. So check out the track,  chill AND comment…

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Stephen Marley & Mos Def. How can you go wrong with this type of collaboration? Honestly this track was destined to be a classic right when these guys decided to do a song together. This song is from Stephen’s 2007 debut album called Mind Control and the track is called “Hey Baby”. Tracks like this are what inspired me to do such a thing as a “Daily 2%” in the first place so check out the track and chill…

Today’s delivery is brought to you by Gang Starr featuring Inspectah Deck. A lot of hip-hop artists nowadays can trace some of their influence back to Gang Starr and its good that they chose such good role models because you never get let down by a Gang Starr track. The track I’m bringing to you today is called “Above the Clouds” which is from their 1998 album entitled Moment of Truth which was a huge successful release for these guys and pretty much the whole album is laced with amazing tracks. Most of you probably know this already but just in case I like to let people know what’s up. Check out the track and relax…
