So unless you’ve been under a rock as of late, you’re probably hip to the fact that the much-lauded pairing of Dutch beatmaker Nicolay + Little Brother’s Phonte AKA The Foreign Exchange are about to drop another album. Leave It All Behind will be dropping digitally on October 7th with a double CD release to follow on October 14th including a full instrumental disc. So if you’re not already salivating just at the thought of this impending goodness, take a listen to the first single “Daykeeper” featuring Muhsinah, and also the album sampler. After wrapping your ears around this, you’ll be drooling for sure. Less hip-hop, and more soul/downtempo/jazz, Leave It All Behind seems like it’s going to be sonically beautiful and a must-have. “Daykeeper” is a fresh track with a smooth, soulful beat that feels like sunrise.
