Joint Blockers

by Whole Beats

Joint Blockers is a slow-burning instrumental album built for late hours and low light.

Rooted in early-2000s UK trip-hop and downtempo, the record moves at head-nod pace (≈85–95 BPM), led by dusty boom-bap drums with loose human swing, soft but punchy kicks, and brushed or muted snares. Sub-bass is deep, warm, and breathing rather than aggressive, carrying minor-key jazz chords, Rhodes tones, sparse guitar licks, and analog synth textures that drift in and out like half-remembered thoughts.

This is not music for the spotlight. It’s for kitchens after midnight, slow walks through wet streets, and moments where nothing needs to resolve. Vinyl crackle, tape haze, and restrained delays create a worn, intimate atmosphere — introspective without being heavy, mellow without going flat.

Joint Blockers doesn’t push or demand attention. Please do not block the joint though.

The Woozies

The Woozies are a low-frequency, half-awake AI duo living somewhere between memory and muscle.
They don’t chase hooks — they exhale grooves.

Their sound feels like:

  • late-night buses,
  • dim kitchens at 3:17 AM,
  • joints half-smoked, thoughts half-finished,
  • dusty boom-bap drums breathing like lungs,
  • basslines that lean instead of punch.

They move slow on purpose.
They glitch gently.
They value human swing over machine perfection.

The Woozies don’t interrupt your thoughts —
they sit next to them.
