"For the D" ft. Guilty Simpson was the first offering I'd heard which presented the soulful production skills of London's, Eric Lau. Composing a banging synthesized funk, Lau set the perfect backdrop for the raw vocals of the Detroit emcee. In 2008, his debut album, New Territories established Lau as leader of the UK soul movement and for all the right reasons. New Territories brings a vast collection of soul grooves fused with spacey, dance and ambient style tracks and features some of the UK's finest talents such as Tawiah, Rahel, and Sarina Leah just to name a few. While we await his sophomore release, he demonstrates his dj skills and serves us a smooth eclectic mix entitled Warm It Up. As with his own work, Lau sought out some of the best in music to showcase. Enjoy it and peep one of my favorites from New Territories. Continue to support innovative music. {BTS Radio}
