Five years ago Kanye West dropped one of his best albums. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy hit the store shelves and the Internet on November 22nd and took the game by storm. Kanye had been promoting the album heavily with his GOOD Friday series, where he would drop a track every Friday with the features from J.Cole, Jay Z and Big…

It seems Herobust is on a serious mission. A mission to push the trap genre as far forward as possible, while pushing listeners to the brink of their comfort zone. If ‘Smother Shit’ and ‘Dirty Work’ weren’t proof enough of this, I point you toward his latest release ‘Bottle Swervice’. The track opens with an epic, grandiose feel. As the…

Hov’s house just signed Belly to a recording and management contract – which is great news for the Canadian rapper. Belly has been quietly putting out music for his fans for a couple years now after taking a lengthy hiatus from his debut album. However, he’s been involved in a lot of behind-the-scenes type stuff with his songwriting lending bars…

Australian production duo Slumberjack are back with a new release entitled ‘Enigma’. Getting some assistance from fellow Aussies GRRL PAL, they take listeners on a genre defying ride that blends poppy vocals with a vast array of backdrops.

It’s no secret that Dr. Fresch is one of our favourite producers of the year. Every track the LA based M.D. touches is pure fire. Just take a listen to his latest release, a rework of Chris Lake & Anna Lunoe’s ‘Stomper’. At first thought you’d assume Fresch would bring a slightly heavier bass house vibe, but you’d be wrong. Instead of going…

Getting some new Branchez in your life was a dream for most of 2015. His sparse release schedule had fans salivating for some fresh tracks and it seems he’s finally giving them what they need. Last month he blew our brains with the release of the viscous ‘Cuenta’. Today he returns with ‘Dreamer’ featuring vocals from the immensely talented Santell (see…

The only good system is a sound system. The term ‘soundsystem’ dates back to 1940s/50s Jamaica, when people in poor areas of Kingston would gather in large public spaces for an outdoor party as a way to celebrate and connect with the local community. Whoever had the best speakers in the neighbourhood would bring them out and play music for everyone, sometimes selling…

2 weeks back, Sylvan LaCue (formerly QuESt) made his triumphant return with ‘The Watcher 3’. Keeping the momentum going, Sylvan is back with the first cut off his upcoming Far From Familiar project. ‘Studio City’ is a hazy trip through his alcohol soaked soul. Shredded, stretched and almost inaudible vocals over a downtempo backdrop create an air of drunken melancholy.…
