Don't know what to do in the cold raining day? Maybe you can watch TV, play games or even sleep all day long. But I have a better idea, how about having a cup of coffee with some relax jazz music? Just click the play button and enjoy the incredible world  which DJ Cam creates !!

Look at this album cover, a golden sky with shadow of the hill. This could symbolize the style of DJ Cam's works. DJ Cam (born Laurent Daumail in 1973) is a French DJ. His tunes are almost entirely a hybrid of both hip-hop and jazz music, and is presented in an abstract manner.
I believe you can heard these two kinds of music combine together in harmony way.

 His first LP was Underground Vibes in 1994, and was revolutionary for its time, featuring familiar jazz samples and  heavy hip-hop influences. His second studio album was Substances, which carried on with the tradition of its predecessor. He released The Beat Assassinated in 1998, which contained cameos from underground rappers, and also released The Loa Project vol.2

In 2003, he departed his regular sound for the Soulshine LP, which featured an appearance by Gang Starr's Guru (Credited as Baldhead Slick). He went back to his hip-hop roots in 2004 with Liquid Hip-Hop, in 2006, he released an iTunes exclusive Best Of compilation, featuring a new song at the end.

DJ Cam has recreated many classic masterpieces, such as Bobby Hutcherson's "Montara", Roy Ayers's "Everybody Loves The Sunshine", andDonald Bird's "Think Twice" ans so on. I really recommend this album to those who wants to have a beautiful time.
