ZHU’s Genesis Series has had a hell of a run; brightening our Mondays with a weekly teaser and then giving us some truly incredible works. As the series concludes, ZHU goes out with a bang unleashing the full audio for his Skrillex x THEY collaboration ‘Working For It’. ZHU and THEY take turns trading vocals while the beat brings us twinkling keys,…

A year and a half ago, OVO Sound artist Partynextdoor or PND for short – dropped a track on SoundCloud titled ‘Persian Rugs‘. The track was a mellow but seductive track featuring a chilled out beat and the usual PND style filtered singing and crooning. Soon after Falcons grabbed a hold of the track and gave it more life. The…

Just seeing Diplo and LIZ come together for ‘Set Me Free’ already looks like a win. Diplo seems like he can hardly miss these days and LIZ’s vocals never disappoint. The track opens with LIZ providing festival ready, albeit poppy vocals that are sure to draw you in. Diplo hits with a first drop that’s aggressive and trappy but proves to only be…

The last time Yogi and Pusha T got together they crafted one of the biggest anthems of the year in ‘Burial’. Considering the track’s immense success and Pusha’s recent love for electronic music, a follow-up was only a matter time. That time has come with the release of ‘Siri’. Following a similar vibe to their first release, the track blends hip-hop swagger…

Our favourite breakout French producers of 2015, Malaa, is back with another dancefloor rattler in ‘H+M’. Leveraging a nostalgic vocal sample, the track professes his love for the varied genres of house music. Celebrating everything from acid and tech, to minimal and jack.

First, Drake made it okay to feel. His embrace of emotion as subject matter made it a relief to listen to songs like ‘Lord Knows‘ off 2011’s Take Care (“I know that showin’ emotion don’t ever mean I’m a pussy“). He’s always held a reasonable standard of raw honesty in his tracks, and this made him a relatable human. Now…

Baauer has had a relatively quiet year. Aside from the Songs From Scratch collab with Fetty Wap, the Trap Kingpin hasn’t made much noise in terms of releases. Spending the bulk of his time in the studio it seems that Harry has decided it’s time to resurface. Last week he warmed things up with an exclusive mix for Triple J and…

Mind Of a Genius has been having a pretty great year. ZHU has been killing it as expected and their second signee, Gallant, has been dominating the internet with ‘Weight In Gold’ clocking nearly 2.5 million plays to date and more remixes than we could keep track of. So it doesn’t come as a surprise that they’re newest duo THEY.…

One of our favourite trap producers of 2015, KRNE, has also been moonlighting in the future bass space with release like ‘Chariots’ and ‘Royal’. Today KRNE brings us yet another futuristic effort with the release of ‘Movin’. Though it may be his least hard hitting work to date, it’s no less striking or impressive than anything he’s released. Infectious and…

Both of these tracks will sound familiar as the first is the verse The Weeknd cut from his version of ‘Tell Your Friends’ and the second is a rework of ‘Say You Will’ featuring Caroline Shaw. Coming off of the recent 808’s & Heartbreak live performance in Hollywood, it seems like Mr. West is ready to break out the auto-tune.…
