Underground Vibes (30th Anniversary Edition)

Emerging from Paris's smoky mid-90s underground, DJ Cam's debut full-length carved out a space where jazz, hip-hop, and ambient minimalism could coexist in perfect equilibrium. Underground Vibes wasn't just a record - it was a manifesto for French trip-hop before the term had currency. With its languid swing and dusky loops, tracks like 'Mad Blunted Jazz' and 'Dieu Reconnaitra Les Siens' capture a late-night poise closer to Mo' Wax or early DJ Shadow than the brashness of boom bap. Cam's genius lies in restraint: dusty samples, faint vinyl crackle and beats that breathe. In this quiet tension between groove and introspection, he helped define an era of European downtempo cool.
