Words from Batsauce:

"Summertime was made during a cold bleak Berlin winter in 2010. I always loved the song ‘Summertime’ in almost any of it’s many incarnations. So, I decided to make a project from the many versions of the Gershwin classic. I thought of it as sonic vitamin D. After I had more than 40 beats made, I sent some out to my rapper-friends — and singers— to add their sunshine to the album. Ironically, it wouldn’t be completed until the end of the 2010 summer. FULL PLATE is celebrating the 10th anniversary with a limited edition yellow cassette. The project features Paten Locke (R.I.P.), Massinfluence, The Perceptionists (Mr. Lif & Akrobatik), Dillon, Qwazaar (of Typical Cats), Chop, Baje-One (of Junk Science), Lady Daisey, & Wynton Kelly Stevenson (of Duct Tape)."
