This month there is very little room for words because there’ so much music to listen to. Not only did we curate another extensive playlist with 30 essential songs released during May, but our good friend Matt Wax over at Beat Lab Radio provided us with a further, massive dose of wave music. Right before celebrating the 10 years of Beat Lab Radio, they partnered with another acquaintance of ours, vibe.digital, for a full month of insane b2bs. The mix series concluded last week with a monumental episode featuring the two heavyweights: Plastician and Klasey Jones. They were preceded by REMNANT.exe b2b Ktrek, BACKWHEN b2b ESCPE, Brothel b2b Sidewalks and Skeletons, and SBU b2b enjoii, for a staggering total of more than four hours of wave poetry. You can listen to all the episodes here.
Kicking off with the newest single by barnacle boi, ‘KNOW Ü’, our Wave Monthly playlist offers the usual dive into the best in wave, hardwave, phonk, and everything in between. We have a gritty edit of ‘Baby again..’ by hyperforms and more flips and remixes from obey, haydys, deadcrow, and MYSTYK. For the more soft-hearted, there are plenty of vocal and instrumental ballads such as niburu’s ‘TOGETHER’ , etsu’s ‘Continuum’ or TYLER BREAKS’ ‘angel’. For the lovers of hardwave or stumping phonk-inspired beats, KTrek, KYLLER, kim & limedisx, FATE, Bafu, SBU & MRKRYL and DRIVERAVE got you covered. There’s even space for a couple of liquid drum&bass and jungle crossovers to cap off the playlist. For the first time since the beginning of the year there’s no Juche music, but only because his two new tracks weren’t uploaded on SoundCloud. You can check them on Spotify.
