Why do we like this?

I can always use a little Sade in my life, and if it has some 808s, then even better.  

Aywy. is from Sydney, Australia, and he decided to further his production skills at the beginning of 2014. So he released a song a day from January 1 to January 9. The end result was accomplished by using Sade's 1984 album Diamond Life and samples from his Roland TR-808.  

My favorite of the bunch is the "Smooth Operator" remix, which is heavily tweaked and chopped, but still super buttery.

The album is available for free download on Aywy.'s Bandcamp page here.
