[News] Jai Paul Confirms Newly-Released Album Is An Illegal Leak

Well it appears that the unexpected release of Jai Paul's debut album over the weekend was, in fact, too good to be true. Jai Paul has confirmed this morning that the Bandcamp upload that appeared online over the weekend is an illegal leak. Reportedly, the self-titled album was illegally leaked after Paul had his laptop stolen (thus the reason for no track names). Paul had this to say via Twitter: To confirm: demos on bandcamp were not uploaded by me, this is not my debut album. Please don't buy. Statement to follow later. Thanks, Jai — Jai Paul (@jai_paul) April [...]

[Album Stream] Jai Paul – Jai Paul

Jai Paul is a British producer and songwriter from Rayners Lane, United Kingdom. Paul's first demo recording, "BTSTU," has been a hit ever since its initial release back in 2007, and last year Paul followed up with his second demo track, "Jasmine." Considering Paul signed with XL Recordings back in 2010, it was just a matter of time before he released new music, and on April 13 it appears that he did just that with the unexpected and unannounced release of a sixteen-track album via his Bandcamp page. Stream the entire album below, as well as his 2012 track "Jasmine," [...]

Jonathan Bates last released a full album under his moniker Big Black Delta in 2011, and on April 30 he'll follow it up with a self-titled sophomore release. "Side Of The Road" is the first single from the aforementioned LP, and I'd expect the remaining tracks from the former Mellowdrone vocalist/bassist to be equally impressive. Website // Facebook Page
