Natural Vibe - CD cover

Natural Vibe is the name of the debut album from Beatsquad. The CD contains ten songs, all written and produced by Beatsquad. On this album we express our interpretation of reggae, from traditional roots vibes, over dance hall anthems, to "ska-ish", up tempo rhythms. Like it or not, all songs have some influences from our diverse musical backgrounds in various genres.
In order to keep ownership of all artistic material we have released the album on our own label; BTSQD Music, in the form of a member cooperative (to ensure true democracy, one member=one vote).
The fundamental instrumental parts (drums, bass, rhythm guitar and organ) of the songs were recorded live and then we overdubbed vocals, solos, etc. All recording and mixing was done in our own studio in Stockholm, which kept expenses down to a minimum. We would like to thank the following for their contribution to making this album possible:

  • Adonis from USCB Allstars and Gusto for his appearance on "Let Love Guide Us".
  • Monica Larsson and Helena Guitarra for background vocals.
  • Christer Falk for saxophone on "Hospital".
  • Daniel Wallberg for photographing the CD cover.

Track list:
01. Confidential
02. Fighting Our War
03. Let Love Guide Us (ft. Adonis)
04. C.O.P.S.
05. Hospital
06. Individuals
07. Solid Ground
08. No Part In This
09. Nah Let It Go
10. Natural Vibe
11. Lyrical Bad Boys

 

Please support us by buying the CD, by doing this you will help financing a follow up album. Keep in mind that your money will go directly to Beatsquad instead of a profit hungry record company!

Love to all,
/Beatsquad
