It’s past 3am. I’m plumbing the depths of Elena’s Art Museum halls looking for some merch. Nothing on the first floor. Nothing on the second one. Patience, after all I’m pretty much a newbie here on Minecraft, I’ve always preferred Counter Strike.

Writing a rap song about the various girls in your life is practically a rite of passage for young rappers making a name for themselves.

The king of wobble is back and stronger than ever! Fresh off the self-released ‘Mr. Policeman‘ and ‘Squeeze’, the first single from his upcoming EP on Deadbeats, Rusko is showing no signs of slowing down with his third track in just over a month.

The latest from the pepper patch, Kyral x…

Sydney Australia’s Shivaji first caught our ear a few years back with massive tracks like ‘Make Moves’ and ‘Torch.’ While he remained quiet for the bulk of 2018 we are excited to announce he’s back in full force with the release of ‘Villian’. The track builds upon the signature sound we’ve come to love with an engrossing and epic build…

One of the few artists to successfully navigate not one, but two codependent music careers, Sam Pool deserves nothing but recognition for his ability to transition from his roots producing Drum & Bass under the moniker SMPL into the shockingly experimental freeform guise of Champagne Drip. With releases on the likes of Quality Goods Records, Wakaan, and Bassrush, the sheer…

I still remember how it all started. I was invited to kick it with a few high school friends that I hadn’t seen in a while. We all linked up in the Distillery District of Toronto for some drinks and eats. The conversation was great, we shared stories spanning the last few years of our lives and laughed throughout the…

Since the release of The Choices We Face EP on bitbird, DROELOE have been busy touring North America while continuously cooking up new beats for fans to enjoy. The dual single ‘Facing The Sea/Through The Storm’ was an emotive listening experience about finding yourself and tackling challenges head-on. Today, the Dutch duo return with another story-telling single titled ‘Only Be…

As one of the most shining prospects to touch the ranks of Icon Collective music school, Kyle Hagberg’s previous experience as a drummer has given him an acquitable advantage that has translated wondrously into his career as a distinguished name in the dubstep genre producing and performing under the guise Kompany.
