NOIA – “Nostalgia Del Futuro”
NOIA‘s “Nostalgia Del Futuro” is out now on Cascine. September… The leaves are escaping from the trees, the sun becomes
Anderson .Paak – XXL Freestyle (Louis Futon Bootleg)
Philadelphia producer Louis Futon recently released his bootleg remix (remix?) of Anderson .Paak‘s “XXL freestyle” and it’s a smooth, soulful flip of the original version.
Pional – The Way That You Like (feat. Empress Of)
Imagine a salad, comprised a various flavors and parts all coming together. Each distinct note and flavor comes together and creates something beautiful. That’s probably the best way to describe Pional’s new track “The Way That You Like” featuring the silvery vocals of Empress Of. It is a mixture of sounds that are vibrating with life that warp and come together to create the most pleasant auditory experience. Pional is a wonderful Spanish producer that is known for his great dance tracks, and “The Way That You Like” is just a preview of the array of tracks he has for us in his new EP “When Love Hurts”. You should definitely give this song a listen, it definitely sounds just the way that you like.
Kadhja Bonet – Honeycomb
It is known that the bees are nowadays in danger, and as a consequence, they will become rarer. The delicious nectar and the craftsmanship that they carefully deliver in order to create the structure of hexagonal cells of wax known as “honeycomb” could do so. This rarity, precision, and delightful taste are what come first to mind while discovering Kadhja Bonet’s “Honeycomb”. It’s the first track taken from her “The Visitor EP” due to be released on October 21.
Xavier & The Thrill – Thrill
Many gems can be found amongst the up-and-coming scene of hip hop. I recently reviewed the Chicago artist Noname, whose album “Telefone” was yet another testament to the fact that major artists aren’t the only ones worth looking out for. After all, these rappers are the future of the genre. However, not all artists that attain a buzz online turn out to be particularly noteworthy. For while Xavier & The Thrill make attempts at something significant, these attempts fall flat in the worst way.
TRACE – Low EP
After releasing a hit single over a year ago, TRACE has finally dropped her debut “Low EP”. The release is all about the lyrics, and isn’t for the passive listener. But for those of you who love to ponder, and wander into the darker parts of your mind, “Low” will help you on your journey inward.
Sea Moya – Baltic States EP
When I first listened to Sea Moya’s latest release, I wasn’t convinced one way or another. Instead, I was just left feeling mildly befuddled. So I listened to it again. And then again. And the more I listened to “Baltic States EP”, the more I learned to love it.
Oscuro – All in my Mind
Yes, Oscuro is one of the hottest tipped producers and it is easy to see why. He has many waiting almost in delirium for his new album, due for release later this year. “All in my Mind” is the first track taken from the album (of the same title) and if the whole album is of this standard, delirium will take over.
