John Frost - Love, Life, Trials & Tribulations [Download]

John Frost Album Artwork
John Frost is a man that represents the blue collar worker. Honest, hard working and with a lotta backbone. This son of a soldier has been working hard over the last year to finish up his official debut album, “Love, Life, Trials and Tribulations”. John grew up travelling around the globe and can be called a citizen of the world, and is sharing his wisdoms of life and love on this album. Love, Life.. became an album in the truest sense of the word, lyrics with topics grabbed straight out of life, a fantastic and coherent musical backdrop, and enjoyable from beginning to end. The productions come from producers extra ordinaire Jeejaa, of whom we can never get enough at Super Nice, and Phonc, who is known from John’s previously released EP Who Is… John Frost? Featurings come from the talented Cedric Salah, the Front Porch Poets, HP, Sel and MadEye. Make sure to grab the free download below, and if you have the chance to see John with his live band The Souldiers this coming summer, don’t miss it!!

Ralph Rip Shit & Lemonface - Basketcase [Free Download]

Basket Case artwork
What happens when UK label Associated Minds and the Dutch Super Nice Music come together? It creates a Basketcase. Producer Lemonface from Amsterdam creates a funky soundtrack for the slightly screwed up in the head Ralph Rip Shit to go lyrically bananas on. The dynamic duo are working on a project together and this single is first evidence of that to see the light of day. Expect more from these crusaders in the coming months!

Blu x Madlib - UCLA [Audio]

UCLA

Back in ‘11 it was known that Blu was working on a secret album ‘UCLA’ with producer Madlib. Today Blu dropped the album, you can listen it here. Enjoy! [EDIT: It seems Blu was so nice to remove the album from bandcamp shortly after putting up. Wonder why…]

Super Nice Music presents The BUMS - Like This [Free Album]

The BUMS
Super Nice Music is proud to present The BUMS, two of the few honest and true Hip Hop craftsmen still out there. The album, “Like This”, is a re-release of the 2008 debut of the duo hailing from North Carolina, and contains a never before released bonus track. We bring you this overlooked gem with the announcement that The BUMS are back with new music coming in 2012.


The BUMS are MO (MC, Producer) from Richmond, VA and TJ Hooky aka Dick Grayson (Producer) from Fayetteville, North Carolina, USA. The acronym BUMS stands for Building Up Musical Sounds, and not without reason. Both MO and TJ come from Hip Hop’s golden age, both produce music and like to blend the all-time great American music like R&B, Soul, Jazz and Funk with the classic Hip Hop from the likes of Dilla, Pete Rock, Madlib, DJ Premier and Dr. Dre.

The BUMS met in 2002 through a mutual friend and shortly after started working on their debut LP, entitled Like This. Although originally released in 2008, the Super Nice crew feels like this LP is not recognized for what it is, a true Hip Hop classic, and therefore decided to re-release the long player to give it the shine it deserves. This fourth Super Nice release is just a warm up to more and better things to come from the unique duo that is The BUMS!

Currently The BUMS are hard at work in the studio to finish off two new projects: A Beautiful World and Bumtacular Fleets, which are both expected to be released on Super Nice Music in 2012.  After releasing these two projects MO and TJ hope to expand the sound of The BUMS to different genres such as Jazz/Instrumental and R&B projects.

DJ Amir - I Don’t Know (Bling47 Breaks Dilla Edition) [Video]

Personally I like music history, discovering which samples were used or which musician played on the original record. So I’m excited to see these video series about breaks and samples etc.

BLING47 BREAKS DILLA EDITION is a video series that show and tell stories of how J Dilla’s music influenced and touched some of the Dj’s and producers. They were asked to go into their own private record collection and tell a lil about their favorite J Dilla sample. They kick the first episode off with DJ amir.

Super Nice Music 2011 [Free Download]


2011 is the year that Super Nice Music first showed it’s being to the public, and here we’d like to brag a little bit and say that 2011 was a very good start for us! It was an idea with which we played around with for quite some time, and finally executing the plans felt really good. We started the blog which almost instantly had a decent amount of traffic, and we released our first album which was Dave Redi’s beat tape Insomniac Music. Big milestones, but we wouldn’t be called Super Nice if we would call it quits now would we?

As the year is not over yet, and because we would like to thank all of you for your continued support of Super Nice Music, we hereby present the “2011: The Best Of The Blog” compilation, which serves as a gift from the SNM crew to you! We’ve asked some of our favourite artists from all over the world if it would be ok to give away their music for free, and to our surprise nobody gave no as an answer.
 
The result is a versatile listen! With people from literally all over the world (Japan, USA, UK, The Netherlands and France), this is our statement that Super Nice music is all over the internet as long as you look for it and listen good enough. A big thank you goes out to all the artists who have made this all possible, without you there would be no Super Nice Music.

// Pac Div (USA) // DTMD (USA) // Boonie Mayfield (USA) // Evil Needle (FR) // The Stuyvesants (USA) // Metabeats (UK) // Def Dee (USA) // Bugseed (JPN) // Kosyne (UK) // Apollo Brown (USA) // Koen (NL) // Mecca:83 (UK) // Versis (UK) // Hassaan Mackey (USA) // Ralph Ripshit (UK) // yU (USA) // Hannibal King (USA) // The Physics USA // Redbeard (UK) // Dave Redi (NL) //

Last but not least, stay tuned as next week we have a special Christmas treat for all of you, before we take some time off to celebrate the holidays. We’ll be back in January with our next line of projects!!
 
Stay safe!

Dave Redi - Days Dawn [Video]


After the successful release of his instrumental debut, Insomniac Music, Dave Redi is now back with the visuals for a favourite of the project, Days Dawn. 

The Days Dawn video takes us on a journey through Arnhem, a city in the eastern part of the Netherlands and home base to Dave himself. The visual displayed is Arnhem through the eyes of Dave on one of his many journeys through the city, on his way to befriended beatmakers, his girlfriend or the innercity. Travel along and vibe to this little bit of travelling music.
