  • Discovered by one Gilles Peterson (who saw fit to release this young Bristolian’s first ever recording, ‘So Good Today’, as the first ever single on his new label), Ben Westbeech makes what you might term
    – were it not such a hideously tainted phrase – intelligent dance music. Taking in jazz, drum ’n’ bass, soulful hip hop, funk and lots of other not-necessarily- that-trendy-at-the-minute genres, his debut album is a laidback, breezy delight, and a record awash with melody, invention and lyrical flair.
