Gramatik Pours Out Some Top-Notch Downtempo With New Release "Coffee Shop Selection"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Known for his high-energy live sets that blur the boundaries between electronic and acoustic music, producer Gramatik has dropped a brand new set of laid-back downtempo tunes that will surely do you well as your head off into the evening hours. His new 22-track release is entitled "Coffee Shop Selection" and is loaded with roving guitars, funky bass, mid-tempo drum beats and lush organ fills--just the sort of material you'd hope to hear as you sip a cup of java and contemplate the nature of all things. The release is something of a compilation and features both classic and brand new material from the producer, who has made an underground name for himself as a consistently strong supplier of sheeny, post-party downtempo sounds. The entire project can be streamed in full below, and be sure to check out Gramatik's upcoming tour itinerary, which will bring him through the West Coast and a number of midwest spots as well.
