Cold Legistics – Inspired Instrumental Hip Hop [Download]

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Posted by Rob B

Cold Legistics: After hearing some of their beats, I got in contact with Chris Brassard, one half of Cold Legistics, to get a bit of background on them and their sound. Cold Legistics started about 4 years ago, and consists of Chris Brassard & Teddy Rosenthal. Teddy goes by the name of Teddy Roxpin, lives in Boston, MA, and works with a lot of rappers in the Boston area. Chris, a native of Providence RI, currently lives in Portland Maine studying at Uni and started producing when at high school, at the young age of 15. Chris’s main influences are Dilla, Dj Premier, Pete Rock, Hi Tek, RZA, Kev Brown, and Bullion. Apart from the ‘Deeper Than You Think’ EP, Cold Legistics’ most recent release is an album released online last week called ‘Northern Star’, which can be downloaded at the link below:

Download: Cold Logistics – Northern Star

Deeper Than You Think EP: Cold Legistics uses clean, intricate drum beats and have immaculate use of sampling. Throughout the EP you can hear samples of Marvin Gaye, Gil Scott-Heron, Redman, Big L, David Axelrod and even The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, all used in moderation to compliment the beats. The album takes you on a journey through different tempos and sounds, from the laid back ‘Didn’t Want To’ with it’s Kev Brownesque guitar samples & vocals subtly echoing in the background, the Dilla inspired genius of Sampling Interlude’ and ‘I’m Gone’, to beats like ‘Coming Home’ and ‘Traffic Interlude’ which could be mistaken for 9th Wonder produced masterpieces. This EP has a unique sound and is my favourite of what I’ve heard from Cold Legistics, but do check out the ‘Northern Star’ album too.

Future Releases: Apart from future Cold Legistics releases, Chris and a crew consisting of Maine locals O*zee, Shane, Reis and Essence, will also be dropping an album soon under the name ‘In the Attic’. I’ll keep you all posted on news regarding that one.

Big thank you to Chris for help with this post.
