Sometimes you need a chill instrumental to ground you. Keep you motivated, you know?
"Backflip" is the latest collaborative single from NYC artists Jacuzzi Jefferson, who produces with the group Pool Cosby, and Brooklyn-based artist-producer-bassist Chris Gaskell, known as Paper Fairy.
The track starts slow—almost like a Yebba-inspired neo-soul piece. Then it flips, just like the name suggests, into this choppy, groovy beat that hip-hop and electronic instrumentals absolutely excel at.
Those jazzy progressions blend seamlessly with a fluid bassline that’s genuinely intoxicating. It dances throughout the entire track.
Jacuzzi Jefferson’s signature style? Laid-back beats, chopped samples, and downtempo dance rhythms. Mix that perfectly with Paper Fairy’s guitar skills and you’ve got something special.
This track gives a real taste of their chemistry. Leaves you wondering how it’d sound with some soulful vocals layered on top.

The only ask is for a longer version down the line. Maybe with even more samples—because when something’s working this well, why not keep it going?
All in all, it’s a short and sweet track. Showcases both musicians’ skill in creating that cool vibe we all crave sometimes.
