Here's another track by Eindhoven-based hip hop producer Y'Skid. Family Music is a bit jazzier than the previous track we featured by Y'Skid, but has still got a great hip hop groove.

Y'Skid is a local producer who has created some great jazz-infused hip hop tracks. This instrumental called Doubtful has quite a different vibe, but we love its laid-back groove.
