MYRNE has been burning up our SoundCloud feed for the past few weeks with our favourite artists showing major love. So when his EP found itself in my stream I knew I had to take it in. Fundamentals is the perfect introduction to the talent embodied by MYRNE. The four-track effort is a mind-bending ride that blends cheery synths, familiar…

I had never heard of Wolf Grey or Kompra before, but I knew as soon as I heard their new track ‘Trust, Lately’ from the newest The South East Grind compilation, I was instantly hooked. The smooth beat and accompanying vocals really make this track an easy listen. The use of the vocal sample in this one along with the spacey pad…

Australia’s talent pool seems to deepen with each passing day. The latest Aussie to land on our radar is Sunshine Coast native Anozira. First catching our ear with ‘Happy Daze,’ we had the pleasure of getting an early listen of his EP (out April 18th) and are proud to premiere one of the project’s stand out tracks ‘Crazy’. The song opens with…

It’s hot! Montreal natives 1DAFUL are feeling nostalgic on their latest, taking on 50’s club classic ‘Disco Inferno’. Whether it’s nights out at the club, highschool parties or grade 8 dances, chances are this track probably holds a special spot in your heart. From the jump they let you know they aren’t playing as pitched down vocals and heavy drums set…

RL Grime is back in a big way. After a few months off, the producer has treated fans to a new release and accompanying visual. The track is a slow burning journey rich with emotion. The video was shot using a GoPro attached to a weather balloon.The seemingly simplistic idea actually makes for a perfect visual experience. As the song…

It seems like someone has locked Gladiator in the studio and is only feeding them if they produce bangers. Either that or they’re just really motivated. The duo kicked off the year with the release of the incredible Transit EP and followed it up with ‘Chilly Bin’ and ‘Berserk’. Adding to their output comes ‘Half Moon,’ a mid-tempo massacre that is equal…

Bam Bam is back and just as you expected, the Queens rapper hasn’t missed a step. Alongside Jah Tiger and Meyhem, Bronson goes in over a groovy beat effortlessly. ‘Mr. 2 Face’ will be on Blue Chips 7000 which is due out later this year. Check out the track below and let us know if you fux in the comments.…
