“Beatsoul” is the dialogue of two musical instruments which understand each other very well: the gramophone and the MPC beat-machine. The majority of this dialogue is well-prepared and thought out but, as every conversation, at times improvised.
This unique soul selection of well-known, as well as less familiar songs is a tribute to their authors. It is also a return to the best times in music’s history – the 70’s, when the words “rhythm and blues” carried a sincere meaning and inimitable vibe.
Dj DBT
Through several recent years played at tens of parties in Lublin and many other cities (Warsaw, Lodz, Szczecin, Sopot…). He is both – a funk-bomb and a master of chillout. His sets are always a unique selection. A keen collector of wax albums.
Ment XXL
He is one of few Polish beat-makers who play live using the MPC 2000XL beat-machine. He produced the Rasmentalism album “Dobra Muzyka, Ładne Życie (Good Music, Pretty Life)”, which has won him a lot of fans. He is often placed among top Polish hip-hop producers.
At present Dj DBT and Ment XXL are working on a new album called W.E.N.A and Rasmentalism Grają Duże Rzeczy.

Footprints Vol. 10 Matam: For Human
Exactly 4 years ago in spring, 2005 the first Footprints mixtape appeared. During these years a lot of material promoting the music of the 1960s and the 1970s came out. The time for an aniversary mixtape has come. Matam rather left "keeping legends alive" idea - digging through pretty large amount of net-labels not only from Poland. In this almost one-hour set we can find tunes from many labels such as: Buddabeats, Estrada Nagrania, Dirty Birdexx, Bump Foot, Moon Label, Humanworkshop, 16 Wersów, Test Tube or Tokyo Down. Matam completed the mix with dialogues form Jovita movie (1967) by Janusz Morgernstern so the whole thing refers to Polish PRL culture promotion. The author of the cover is a legendary RSO196. Hope you enjoy it!
