J Bizness – Destination (Video)

J Bizness’ “Flight Plan” is well over 30,000 feet at this point. The instrumental album from the LA producer took off in August and has been exploring the skies since. Today, Mello Music Group and director Erick Lee share the visuals for “Destination,” one of the more introspective, almost somber cuts from the LP.

Airports and plane travel in general have always had a bit of an introspective element to them. They are places of connections, departures and arrivals. Playing off the dramatic vocal chop, pulsating drums and emotive synths, Lee visually matches the mood by seamlessly combining shots of the people and planes that make travel possible.

Like a plane taking off just at dusk, “Destination” is moody and cerebral. You can catch a connection to “Flight Plan” at your local independent music retailer and …

J. Bizness – Flight Plan (Free Triple Instro Download Pack) (MP3)

Kicking off the Mello Music Group Instrumental Series is J Bizness with “Flight Plan,” a 24-track collection of instrumentals inspired by the miracle of flight. To launch the coming of the new album J. Bizness is giving away a triple pack of instrumentals from the project.

The accomplished Ontario, CA producer (LA’s Red Bull Big Tune Champ) creates a relaxed feeling of ease with his production that is well contrasted by just the right measure of funk. “Landing Gear” has spacey synth patches and electro accents while “Turbulence” is darker and grittier, alluding to its namesake. The rising and falling synthesizer lines in “Nonstop” mirror the path of flight.

If you frequent the invasive TSA lines and iron birds, let “Flight Plan” serve as your soundtrack, or for the …
