ETC!ETC! continues to keep Moombahton moving in 2016. His bootleg of ‘One Dance’ has been catching plays all year and before the year closes out, he’s back with another fresh flip. Taking on Dillon Francis’ ‘Anywhere,’ the producer builds upon the poppy vocals to craft an infectiously bouncy banger. Adding in some Moombahton Flavor, ETCETC! takes the tasty vanilla soft serve…

From the UK grime scene to djs and rappers in North America, the “all black everything” wave has never been stronger. Furthering the momentum comes the all black anthem from Donae’o, JME and Dizzee Rascal – fittingly titled ‘Black’. Kicking the track off comes an enticing pre-hook that shows Donae’o’s vocal range. As the bass deepens the infectious and simplistic hook…

Big Sean has been heating up the back half of the year. After letting off the fierce ‘No More Interviews’ and ‘Bounce Back,’ Sean Don is back with another new heater entitled ‘Moves’. The 808 Mafia produced cut features an unsurprisingly knocking beat that is ripe for Sean to drop bars over. The smooth hook is a warm up for the…

Titling a track ‘Episode’ is a good way to raise some intrigue. At first glance it leaves you wondering what exactly it is in reference to. Is it a moment in time captured on record? The first installment of a greater series? Autograf’s latest turns out to be something different entirely. Like any good story,  it doesn’t reveal it’s purpose from…

Yagi (formerly MikeyR) landed on our radar earlier this year when we premiered ‘Hold On’. Since then, he’s been grinding hard, pumping out tunes and building his catalog. With a new album on the way early next year, Yagi is back with a beastly new single in ‘hiLITe’. When those dark keys hit you in the intro, it’s hard not…

Barclay Crenshaw, Claude Von Stroke’s alter ego, is back again with another brain-bender. This time in mix form, Crenshaw transcends genres and dimensions over the span of 40 minutes. From the outset an otherworldy and sci-fi inspired soundscape pull you in. It’s a space ship acid trip equipped with an inexplicable range of sounds that somehow drift into each other…

As 2016 comes to a close, Oddisee is ending the year with a bang, announcing a new album entitled The Iceberg. The twelve track project will arrive on February, 24th next year. To tie fans over and build excitement, he has let off the first single ‘Things’. The production maintains an upbeat, almost dancey, hip hop feel (think Q-Tip’s The…

For this week’s installment of FUXWITHITFRIDAYS we’re mixing things up. Instead of us putting together our list of selects, we had MOD crew’s Lil Texas and Yung Satan give us their picks. The two are fresh off their collab ‘Private Yacht,’ so it felt only right that they come through for a little B2B selection. There’s a ton of under…

Making a name for himself off consistently impressive remixes, Nebbra took a break earlier this year to craft his stellar debut EP You. Today the gifted producer gets back to his remix roots on a fresh flip for The Great Escape. Built around the strong vocals from the original, Nebbra takes ‘I Can’t Resist’ to war. As the lead vocals escalate in…
