Palais (formerly Palace) was one of our selects for Need To Know Australian Producers back in 2014. After building a bigger buzz in 2015, he took 2016 off from releasing music. I often wondered when he would make his return and it seems the wait is finally over with the release of ‘Instant Crush’. Driven by the sultry and indulgent vocals…

Last year Herobust released I’m Aloud, a genre-defying and boundary pushing project that I described as “one of the most forward thinking and innovative projects the trap and bass genres have seen in years.” To kick off 2017, Herobust returns with yet another groundbreaking EP in Vertebreaker. The project builds upon the sound he created on I’m Aloud while somehow…

CyHi the Prynce has been G.O.O.D. Music’s dark horse for a minute. The frequent Kanye collaborator boasts writing credits on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Yeezus & The Life Of Pablo. He made some major waves as an MC with the iconic GOOD Fridays series (‘So Appalled,’ ‘Take One For The Team,’ ‘Christmas In Harlem’) but has remained relatively quiet…

Big Wild‘s Invincible EP is due out tomorrow but he’s blessed fans with one more single ahead of the release. ‘Empty Room’ sees Wild teaming up with vocalist Yuna for a bittersweet beauty. The track blends earthy elements with an emotional pull. It feels like Spring; the frozen earth thawing and the sun shining more than ever before. At the…

TroyBoi and Stööki Sound are some of the UK’s finest. Last year they joined forces for the absolutely massive ‘W2L.’ Building off that chemistry comes ‘Warrior’. An anthematic cut that straddles the line between lowkey and slapping. It’s not your typical banger. Slow, quite breaks and builds stir anticipation and uncertainty. Exotic undertones are layered with snapping 808s, while electrifying…

What is the greatest time period for music? It’s a question sure to excite and engage conversation at a party, with friends or online. It allows for us to see things from a different perspective and learn about individuals in an interesting way. Some might tell you it was the 60’s with the birth of legends like The Beatles, The…

Party Pupils popped up out of nowhere with their stellar flip of Dram & Lil Yachty’s ‘Broccoli’. Proving they’ve got staying power comes a fresh rework of Max’s ‘Holla’. The future pop sound is absurdly upbeat and just as catchy. It’s cruising in a convertible in Cali while the sun heats your skin. If the pop-friendly sound feels too sweet,…
