Back in 2015, when we started Hip Dozer we were overwhelmed by the amount of talents that were still defending that old school way of doing beats and the amazing creativity that was circulating in the scene.
In a period of time where hip hop was evolving so much and getting always further (sometimes for the best but also for the worst), it appeared evident to us that we had to defend this rising scene of young beatmakers that were so tied up to the roots of the 'old-school' beatmaking but still bringing it to another level.
It has been 5 years since we have created Hip Dozer Records with our 1st Anniversary compilation and this is what makes this compilation such a special project every time. Its goal remains the same and will always be, championing the art of beatmaking that we love and help to showcase new artists from the scene.
This year we have the chance to have onboard some of our favorite new talent from the scene with the like of Burrito Brown, Loland, Imagiro, we also have the chance to have standard bearers like Jinsang, Saib, Flofilz, Melodisinfonie, Kazam, Shuko and, cherry on the cake, the french hip hop legend DJ Cam on top of that.
We want to thank so much all the artists who took part in this project and that were as enthusiastic as we are in its realization. It’s been such a thrill since this venture started and this is just the beginning. Much love to all of you guys listening and supporting wherever you are.
PEACE.
Hip Dozer Fam.

Sound engineer by training, brillions. slowly started to compose, record to find his own sound, 'Nocturnal Nostalgia' as he names it. He quickly found its audience and tastemakers support since he released his first project two years ago. While working on his awaited Bedtimes Stories Pt. 3, he accepted the invitation to be part of Hip Dozer's yearly compilation.
'Lanterns' is a 100% brillion. beat, beautiful and heavily loaded with emotions. The American producer made an edifying blend of a chill-hop beat, some piano chords and a powerful synth. A hovering production, full of chill and romantic vibes.
This is background music, but like, good background music. You can go on a walk listening to this album.
That said, they better have planted that tree. keiron

Probably my favorite of all of the Chillhop Essentials albums so far. If you love Chillhop then I would highly recommend picking this album up as it's a delight to listen to, and for the price of however much you want to pay for it (Although I would highly recommend to send the artists a little bit, the music industry is rough and they can use whatever you can give!) akiraquetzal
