If there’s one thing that Jamel Tingman, a.k.a. Mr. Melly, does best, it’s spitting truth while crushing bars, especially in his latest release. The NYC-based rapper focuses on some conscientious topics with ‘BeLuxury’, but not before living up to the track’s name by flaunting his rose-gold watch. (Hey, we all need to treat ourselves every now and then, no?) He…

Now that Spring is in the air, Louis The Child couldn’t have picked a better time to release their long-anticipated EP.

Swedish DJ/producer Salvatore Ganacci released some pretty hard-hitting bangers over the last while, but has taken things to a far more sultry level with his latest tune. Compared to the hype-bringing, booty-bouncing tracks he’s been putting out, ‘Talk’ has much more of an R&B vibe to it. This comes paired with a buttery-smooth trap beat which helps roll things along…

DJ Snake‘s trap banger (with Travis Scott, Migos‘ Quavo, & G4SHI) is already a wicked track to begin with – now, Malaa steps forward and puts out a remix that’s just as lit, if not more so.

It’s that glorious time of year again, where the weather is bound to start getting warmer soon, and festivals are going to sprout up for a summer of revelling and outdoor fun.

In the 2000’s few DJ’s were more influential and game changing than DJ AM. From his high profile gigs to his relationship with (then massive reality TV celebrity) Nicole Richie, to his endorsement deals with Nike, Pepsi, T-Mobile…. AM was everywhere. Although he often played the glitz & glamour scene he had the skills to back it up. He wasn’t…

Oregon-based EPROM and UK resident Alix Perez are massive bass producers in their own right, yet together as the duo SHADES, are a force to be reckoned with. Their latest collaborative song, ‘Creepin,” is off their upcoming EP, Night of the Dreadless Angel. As the name suggests, the song feels like it inches towards you like a massive swarm of…

Just when you thought you knew Stööki Sound, they prove you wrong and produce a tune that’s completely unprecedented. Veering away from their bass-heavy vibes, the iconic duo, with the aid of Latroit and Lliam Taylor, go for more of a dreamy, lullaby-like tone, which will leave you more soothed than hyped for a night of turning up. Following their…
