about

‘Soul Food & Skunk Breaks’ is the fifth release by Thijsenterprise as a producer and is a full-length, sampled-based beat tape. Entirely focussed on getting high.

The idea for this project was sparked in late 2018, when Belgian music blog SoulFoodForTheKidz (soulfoodforthekidz.blogspot.com) asked Thijsenterprise to make a special guest mix for their ‘Smoke Breaks’ series: mixes with the sole purpose to enhance the listener’s smoking experience. After creating that mix, he couldn’t let go of the idea to create a full-length beat tape with the same purpose, with care for sequencing as if it's an album.

Thijsenterprise created his own hazy universe with this tape: from rolling a joint to lighting it up and getting high. Or, in the words of Jonas van Overwaelle (founder of SoulFoodForTheKidz): “I hear MONSTERS of loops that slowly creep up from behind a thick curtain of smoke. Leaving a sticky green trace while filling the room with a sweet and mysterious scent…”

This tape shows a new step for the beatmaker: a bigger focus on off-grid drum patterns and different textures, while never letting go of what he loves most: chopping soul and jazz samples, using raw drums and dirty basslines. All for the love of the perfect loop.

Today's double-digital release of ‘Soul Food & Skunk Breaks’ and ‘Night Store Beats’ (thijsenterprise.bandcamp.com/album/night-store-beats) happens between ‘Snits’ and the upcoming ‘Lahringen’ album on vinyl in November. The upcoming record brings together his work as a beatmaker and decade-long passionate work as a saxophone player, creating a head-nodding, off-kilter clash of hip-hop, jazz & punk.

Sit back, roll one, and enjoy.

Favorite Track: Whichever one is currently playing. This album kills, and you owe it to yourself to listen with no distractions and headphones on. The mixing and mastering of the album feels worth shouting out — every instrument can be heard distinctly yet never overtakes a track. The bass and beats are deep and resonate, pulling you down into the warmth of this album, while the horns and winds lift you into their lilting and bold exultations. Could Not Be Worse
