This year we’ve opted to do the playlist on both SoundCloud and Spotify. This way no matter which platform you prefer, we’ve got you covered. We rounded up the hottest summer bops from Skrillex, Diplo, Whethan, Rome In Silver,…

The future beat tide continues to rise and we’ve definitely caught the wave. UK-based Afrosamuraiist is one of the genres brightest new stars. He first caught our attention last summer when he landed a spot in our Focus Five series. Over the past 12 months he’s continued to grow and evolve as a producer with standout singles like ‘I Guess,’ ‘I…

Ever After Music Festival celebrated its 5th year with its biggest offering to date. With over 32,000 attendees across 3 days and 3 stages, the event showcased why Ever After is one of Ontario’s best festivals. The bass-heavy line-up boasted heavy hitters like Kill The Snails, Excision, G Jones, Noisia and many more. While most attendees hit the event to headbang…

Argentinean producer Dabow is one of the best out right now. From older tracks like ‘Ole,’ to his CREAMA EP, and his latest collaborative banger ‘Godzilla,’ Dabow never misses. It seems his consistency and quality is finally starting to attract some major attention as he’s set to make his US debut this weekend with the legends at Brownies and Lemonade.…

One of raps brightest new stars, YBN Cordae, is back with a fresh single alongside Chance The Rapper. ‘Bad Idea’ is a warm weather anthem that’ll take you to the summer BBQ. The mellow and soulful backing creates a mood reminiscent of Scarface’s classic ‘My Block.’ The track sees Cordae switching between vivid nostalgia with bars about grass-stained hand me…

Toronto is on a wave right now. Following the Raptors historic NBA Championship, the world was wondering when Drake would drop new music in celebration. It didn’t take long for Drake to announce he’d be releasing two new tracks in ‘Omerta’ and ‘Money In The Grave’ on the fittingly titled The Best In The World Pack. The two pack is…

Friday is finally here and you know we’ve got a grip of heat for your listening pleasure. As always we’ve rounded up the hottest releases of the week. We’ve got that new Dreamville heater featuring J. Cole, JID, Bas, EARTHGANG & Young Nudy, plus music from tapecut, COFFIN, XV, Saka, Chee, EAZYBAKED, QUIX and more. Dive in below.

Russian producer tapecut is no stranger to taking classic hits and turning them into fresh slappers. ‘richbwoii w/ t1r’ and ‘give it to me’ remain getting plays from some of the hottests DJs around despite being released a year, and six months ago respectively. Building upon his knack for flipping older gems comes ‘weesh,’ a knocking bop that’s constructed around…

In late 2017 my SoundCloud digging unearthed a rare gem in zotti’s ‘crystal.’ The impeccable work left me mesmerized and delving through his back catalog to enjoy his equally impressive previous work. I was so blown away that I concluded my post stating, “zotti is the future.” Oddly enough since that date he’s only released one song, a remix of Bonzai’s ‘Cruel’.…

“Yeah, I say fuck you, ‘less I’m with ya/If I take you out of the picture, I know real niggas won’t miss ya/No lie, no lie, no lie-ee-i-ee-i/No lie, no lie, no lie-ee-i-ee-i…” the anthematic chant from Drake on 2 Chainz’s ‘No Lie’ provided the perfect foundation for Cashmere Cat’s iconic edit. The track is a testament to Cashmere Cat’s…
