This album covers a huge range of pop and jazz-inspired influences-from old favorites (Nat King Cole's Straighten Up And Fly Right, Arlen & Gershwin's It's a New World and Hogey Carmichael's Lazy Bones) to modern hits (Michael Buble's Home, Jason Mraz's I'm Yours and Imogen Heaps Hide And Seek). Commissions especially for the album come from Bob Chilcott, Mia Makaroff, Ysaye M. Barnwell and Roger Treece.

![Top 4 / Various - Top 4 (Various Artists_ - 12-INCH SINGLE [12 inch Vinyl Single]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/6beba143-6c09-4ab4-80cf-0299adcadec6.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Top 4 features four songs from four forthcoming LP's on the Cold Busted tag. To start the series off we have beats from tag favorites Sim Nagai, Mister T., and Emapea plus two artists who were recently signed to the tag Goodge and MichRyc. Sim's latest album, Equator Hotline, features exotica-fueled beatscapes and transportive vibes. The equator itself is breached on InchDeep in the RainforestInch as busy percussion playfully accompanies the downtempo drum beat. Goodge's jazz-funk dreamscape is sonically interpreted through the grooves in tracks like InchHeart of the CityInch from the forthcoming album Echoes of Yesteryear. Here, cool electric piano keys, a snazzy saxophone, and scratchy guitar are buoyed by an uptempo drum track that transmits a cool inner city feel. MichRyc's friend Emapea helps out with InchMonkeys in the Jungle,Inch from Under the Surface, a deep instrumental hip hop cut that almost sounds influenced by Saharan guitar bands like Mdou Moctar. Mister T. returns to Cold Busted with Synchronized Roots, another fantastic album encompassing the many styles of the prolific producer. InchLooking AboveInch continues on a dubby tip, delivering a more heady and smoked-out feel. Each record is limited and pressed at 45 RPM with two tracks on each side for maximum fidelity. Album Tracks 1. Sim Nagai - Deep in the Rainforest 2. Goodge - Heart of the City 3. Michryc & Emapea - Monkeys in the Jungle 4. Mister T. - Looking Above
