Bastard Jazz

Bastard Jazz Recordings is a Brooklyn, NYC based boutique record label founded in 2001 by A&R and label head Aaron Schultz and Art Director Jay Marley. With a focus on *genre-defying* music, Bastard Jazz has become known for its diverse roster of talented artists who push the boundaries of traditional genres.

Since its inception, Bastard Jazz has been dedicated to showcasing innovative and groundbreaking music from around the world. The label's releases span a wide range of styles including *electronic*, *hip-hop*, *soul*, *funk*, and more.

With an emphasis on quality over quantity, Bastard Jazz prides itself on carefully curating each release to ensure that every track is a standout. From established acts to up-and-coming talent, the label's roster includes artists such as *Captain Planet*, *Lord Echo*, and *Potatohead People*. These musicians bring their unique perspectives and creative visions to the forefront, resulting in captivating and memorable music.

Potatohead People is a Canadian hip-hop/electronic producer duo from Vancouver, BC. They first met in high school and bonded over their love for J Dilla and Madlib. In 2008, they formed Potatohead People and started creating innovative instrumental music. Their 2012 EP 'Kosmichemusik' gained recognition when it was reissued by NY label Bastard Jazz. The duo's debut LP 'Big Luxury' was released in March 2015. They have collaborated with artists like Kaytranada, Phife Dawg, and Questlove.

After developing a friendship with Illa J, the younger brother of J Dilla, Potatohead People produced a full-length LP for him which was released on Bastard Jazz in late 2015. Throughout their career, they have worked with notable musicians such as Moka Only, Pomo, Ivan Ave, and The Pendletons.

OkayPlayer describes Potatohead People as a "formidable tandem" and their unique sounds have been supported by Soulection, Nightmares on Wax, Big Boi, and more.

Newest Listed Items

On their third full-length release, Potatohead People widen the frame of their progressive musical vision and deliver a far-reaching yet approachable set of moods and grooves.

Mellow Fantasy continues to showcase the trademark instrumental prowess of the duo and their ease with the loose but hard-hitting drum style brought to the fore by Jay Dee's influential productions, but goes well beyond basic boom bap bread and butter, with singer-centered R&amp;B and uptempo bumps sharing the stage.
