Keelay & Zaire - Prelude To Drive

This is a real treat for all you folks that check out the J-Ronin tapes and always wonder about that production duo Keelay and Zaire that routinely turn in heat rock for your favorite emcee to spit over. If you do peep out the "All Elements" drops or just have an ear for a lot of stuff that's been rotating on New York and Los Angeles's underground scene lately, than you should be at least a lil' bit familiar with the production magic of relative newcomers Keelay and Zaire. Reppin' San Fran (Keelay) and Dayton, Ohio (Zaire), they seem like they'd be a somewhat awkward match, but thanks to the Sole Vibe movement, guys from all over the country are getting to collab together and they were no exception.

Mixing a lot of keys and synths with sampled records and hard hitting drums the two have garnered a lot of respect for their work thus far, handing in beats to some of the game's better up and coming artist's like Torae, Skyzoo, Supastition and Blu. This release here is no different and the soulful creativity is very present on "Prelude To Drive". The free digital EP release provided by Keelay and Zaire showcases their innate ability to mold their sound around a mood or feeling. Enjoy.
