Sometimes you need a chill instrumental to ground you and keep you motivated.
“Backflip” is the latest collaborative single from NYC artists Jacuzzi Jefferson, who produces with the group Pool Cosby, and Brooklyn-based artist-producer-bassist Chris Gaskell, known as Paper Fairy.
The track starts slow, almost like a Yebba-inspired neo-soul piece, then flips—just like the name suggests—into a choppy, groovy beat that hip-hop and electronic instrumentals excel at, blending jazzy progressions with a fluid bassline that’s intoxicating and dances throughout the track.
Jacuzzi Jefferson’s signature style blends laid-back beats, chopped samples, and downtempo dance rhythms, which mix perfectly with Paper Fairy’s guitar skills.
This track gives a taste of their chemistry and leaves you wondering how it’d sound with soulful vocals.
The only ask is for a longer version down the line, maybe with even more samples—because when something’s working, why not keep it going?
All in all, a short and sweet track that showcases both musicians’ skill in creating a cool vibe.
