JVM

James Vincent McMorrow's voice is ridiculous. Star Slinger did a pretty special RnThug remix of this song, but the original speaks for itself:

Stem

It's great when vocalists remix records, especially if they have great voices. The addition of Guillermo Scott Herron's vocals turn an already haunting song into something even more introspective... Maybe he's made the song more uncomfortable. But I dig it. 


D'Eon

Oh heiiiiyyy D'eon!


Boom Clap Bachelors

Without Boom Clap Bachelors there would be no Quadron- which is reason enough to rate them. And this:

Niki and The Dove

On first hearing my friend and I decided Niki and The Dove is like a 'what happened when Cyndi Lauper went to Jamaica...' and then we listened to some more songs and another friend suggested she's likeAnnie Lennox post-apocolypse.... Either way, I like it.

Yes Strut.

Star Slinger does it again. This time he's teamed up with fellow producer Teams to make this summer banger:

Crush

Could Drake be more of a swoon? No.

Syd Tha Kyd

Yes there's a girl in Odd Future; she's the DJ, sound Engineer, and has made this dopedopedope TUNE:


Thanks Animal Collective

Rad mix.

Swoon

Not sure when I became too cynical to seek solace in acoustic music anymore, but it happened. I stumbled upon J. Irvin Dally today though and am now in a weird nostalgic trance. Turns out he's also a bit of a swoon. I can't find a video of his tune 'Little Ones' but that's my favourite.

Emay

Oh and Emay also deserves individual attention because he's a sick rapper and producer and his flow's incredibly refreshing. You can call it chill-hop if you want, I just think it means hip-hop is getting pretty good again.


Seeing Suge..

Previously mentioned beat boy Star Slinger has another rather exciting project on the go... 'Seeing Suge' sees him join forces with Blackbird, Blackbird and Emay. The result is a chill-wave, meets psychadelic hip hop experience...as perfectly demonstrated by 'Braking' which samples Memory House. Very good boys.


Stolen Dog

At last, new Burial! So good when you can listen to a producer and detect it's them within about milli-second. He's made us wait far too long, but his moody introspection is just as relevant as ever, and both tunes live up to expectation. More please.
