Formerly known as Slakah the Beatchild, now simply Beatchild, Canadian musician, producer and songwriter Byram Joseph returns to BBE with a retrospective instrumental collection, Nostalgia: Beats of 2008-2020...

Nostalgia: Beats of 2008-2020 collects 21 tracks (1 hr, 01 min, 40 sec) of smooth, chill out retrospective instrumental works. We'll skip over the cover, which would have made more sense if this was a compilation album from the '80s, and just delve into how cool and laid back this album is.

Unless you're a real expert on the genre, there is a tendency for all of these track to feel very similar in style. There's a lounge vibe on quite a lot of the songs, but rest assured it's a timeless LP packed with cool tunes. It's certainly one you'll get instantly lost in.
