Some awesome house music to get your Friday evening started. The first track is a bit more experimental. Definitely more vocally focused, but the vocals, by above pictured Ladyhawke, are incredible and the beat is pretty excellent. The second song has so many people in it it’s ridiculous. All I hear are some great vocals […]
I am psyched to announce the arrival of Notorious Lights part 2 by the acclaimed musicians behind Notorious Lights part 1, LJC. It’s fresher than ever. LJC takes some killer tracks from Pretty Lights and matched them up perfectly with Biggie Smalls. Check out a preview below and find the full mixtape from the link […]
I’m not sure if it’s just because of the song by Tennis, which reminds me of a breezy, sunny spring day, but this track by G- Eazy is legit. Check out his version and the original song from Tennis that is sampled below. I can’t stop listening. Waspy (ft. Tennis) – G-Eazy Marathon – Tennis […]
Ground Up out of PA has been gaining a lot of traction lately and will even be playing a show with Chris Webby of CT pretty soon. They’ve got serious flow and the production is excellent with some help from quality sampling. First song samples Vienna by Billy Joel in case you’re wondering. If you […]
This is an awesome track by Masta Ace. The sample used is called “Lazy Day” by Spanky & Our Gang. It’s an airy, poppy song released in the summer of 1967 about a walk in the park. Masta Ace marvelously turns this track into a critique of the hood, showing how it’s not all good. […]
Scanning the music scene, it is often easy to miss new up and coming bands. Luckily, when you have a name like Peephole, people are apt to stop and take a look and perhaps a listen. Started by Kent Odessa in Brooklyn, NY, Peephole has been getting people out of their seats and dancing for […]
It’s been a while, but we have a medley of listener contributed music for you. The video above is a great techno remix with some awesome film clips. If you dig that video, check out That’s It, That’s All for the whole documentary. The second track is off of up and comer Young Prince’s new […]
Stillness Is The Move by Dirty Projectors is one of my all time favorite songs that I heard today for the first time in a while. It has an awesome beat and the video is strange, but I love it because its funky and different- two perfect adjectives to describe the Dirty Projectors . Plus, […]
This is such an awesome remix of The Black Kids’ “Not Gonna Teach Him” by The Twelves. It’s so awesome, Weezy F Baby is thrown on at the end. Alt rock? Weezy? Don’t worry, this is a remarkable remix, rather than a repugnant Rebirth rock track. Not Gonna Teach Him (The Twelves Kickmix) – Black […]
A sick underground track that the title suggests is by Hieroglyphics and Souls of Mischief although Souls of Mischief is actually part of the collective Hieroglyphics and I can only hear Souls of Mischief rapping, no Del or anyone else. I could also have a complete misunderstanding of how exactly the one/two group(s) work together. […]
