The Blue Deck is an instrumental Hip Hop beat album by The Jezter.

It was self released in 2005 on CD-R to friends and family with a download made available for a couple of years to the rest of the world.

2011 Remastering

The original album had great ideas but suffered from lengthy tracks and bad mixing/mastering. For the remastered edition every sound and instrument has been examined and optimised for a much more professional feel. Other changes include shortened tracks and the removal of movie samples as these became irritating after a few listens. The track ‘Beast’ has been stripped down so as to be less cluttered and messy than the original. Finally the whole album as been newly mixed and mastered.

The Blue Deck is available for free download courtesy of Hot Baked Goods.
