Keep On Repeat

Very excited to hear new music from Phoenix producer Myrryrs, who is gearing up for another release on Body High. The new EP will act as the follow up to his criminally slept on I’m A State of Mind EP from last year. Head below to stream Is It True?, the first offering from Myrryrs Southside Horror EP, which will be available everywhere on May 28th.

The always generous Bay area production duo Friendzone have blessed us with another free download in anticipation of their full length LP, DX, which will be released through Brighton based label Donky Pitch later this year. Head below to stream new track Always, a bouncy, sample based kaleidoscope of sounds that should be a good indicator of what to expect from their forthcoming album. Expect more new music from Friendzone sooner than later.

Beloved Canadian super producer Ryan Hemsworth is prepping the release of a new EP, Still Awake, which will drop on his newly launched website next week. The folks over at Mixmag premiered the ambient first single, Perfectly, yesterday and announced a string of European tour dates that Hemsworth will kick off on May 29th in Copenhagen.

I have been following Parisian producer Andrea for quite some time now observing him release one off singles and free downloads via his Soundcloud page. Just a few months ago he helped form a new independent label/imprint by the name of Moose Records, and aside from an introductory compilation, Andrea’s Cruising EP serves as their first official release. Coming in at five tracks, there are three originals featuring appearances from Rejjie Snow and Julia Losfelt, in addition to two remixes from Sun Glitters and Slow Magic. Andrea’s entire Cruising EP can be streamed and downloaded free of charge below.

Been waiting to hear ViLLΛGE & Arapaima’s joint EP in full since we got a taste of Love On The Line about a month ago. Their six track EP, The Catch, finally saw the light of day last week thanks to Origami Sound and can be streamed below. The release features three solo tracks from ViLLΛGE and three from Arapaima, and will be followed up by an official remix EP featuring some of their favorite artists in the months to come.

French producer Evil Needle experiments with sounds ranging from downtempo, soul, hip-hop, electro and just about everything in between on his latest album, Qualia. Released on Huh What & Where Recordings, the 13 track instrumental album delivers a fresh palette of synth and drum sounds, along with a couple very welcomed collaborations. Most notable is Intrepidity, a brain rattling tune featuring co-production from Hawaii’s Mr. Carmack, whose presence is hard to overlook thanks to the neck snapping snares. With another feature from Freddie Joachim, the rest of the album rides very smoothly while offering a unique variety of sounds and moods. Support creativity through the link below or simply stream and spread the word.

I posted Let Me Go Up, the first single from 4llsouls & Chloe Martini’s joint EP when it caught my attention a few weeks ago.

Stream and download the fourth release from Take Care Recordings and check out a special new solo tune from Chloe Martini featuring French vocalist Anna Paul below.

Finally got around to listening to Carried Away, a three way collaboration between Pittsburgh producer Tülpa, Florida producer Henry Krinkle and Leeds three piece, Atlas. Each artist puts their own unique touch on the track, tying the sound back to their musical roots and geographic location. Carried Away is a much welcomed experiment exploring sounds in house, garage and beyond, and it can be streamed and downloaded below free of charge.

The first song to get visual treatment from Kaytranada’s debut EP, Kaytra Todo, is the thumping EP closer, Holy Hole Inna Donut. The video features strange clips of what looks like found footage from a game of Jai alai somewhere overseas and it strangely fits with the music. Kaytra Todo is out now on HW&W Recordings & Jakarta Records (Europe) and can be streamed and purchased via the link below.

To coincide with start of his headlining tour through out the West coast, L.A. super producer RL Grime just released an intense remix of his favorite rap song of 2012, Love Sosa. With a considerable amount of added bass, Grime has reworked Chief Keef’s hood anthem into a more dance floor friendly tune while keeping the meat and potatoes from the original in tact. Jump on any opportunity you can to catch RL Grime’s live set and you will be in for one of the most fun DJ sets out right now.

Baton Rouge based producer Suicideyear has popped up on my radar several times over the past year, mainly for his dark and drugged out remixes of popular tracks by Danny Brown, Lil’ Wayne & Birdman and Waka Flocka Flame. With help from the overseas homies at Southern Hospitality, Suicideyear just released his first official mixtape, Japan, which was executive produced by Wavriel and features 13 new instrumentals plus a nasty Travis Porter remix. Along with the mixtape is the official L.W.H. directed video for standout, Interest, a track that was premiered by Brodinski live on BBC Radio 1 a few weeks ago. Watch the video for Interest and stream/download Japan in its entirety below.
