You might have heard of this fellow already, Danny Native had a track on the Our Music Our Culture compilation, as well as some self-released EPs. Now, just as you think that this thing called broken beat is about done, Danny delivers his debut LP with 12 “brukkers” that were made for the dancefloor.

A Thousand Days of Patience starts with the heavy-weight track Tomorrow is the New Today, which you might have heard on a previous download-only EP - just this time you get additional vocals from Amalia Townsend, already famous for her collaboration with Opolopo and her own band Sekoya. There's one other track with vocals from Aisling Stephenson, while the remaining ten tracks are spiced up with samples.

Unfortunately, I cannot provide you with a proper preview, but head over to the Coopr8 Store to listen or buy the record. There has also been the Pieces of Me mixtape from Danny which features some of the album tracks. Looks like the album is download-only, but I'm still waiting to get this confirmed!
