Kiefer curates the perfect beat-led mix to tune out distraction

Focus Beats

Available for 29 days

The jazz keyboardist and producer selects the first hour of this focus mix. Featuring tracks from Slum Village, Hiatus Kaiyote, Dilla, Madlib and more. Following the release of his album ‘It’s Ok, B U’, Kiefer stops by to pick an hour of his favourite beats. His choices reflect his own cross-genre style, featuring a mix of hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and electronic productions. Having selected these tracks from within his own somewhat chaotic home (he lives with two other musicians), he has chosen the perfect mix to help tune out the noise and focus on today’s most pressing tasks. First broadcast in 2023.
