Lido appeared out of nowhere in early 2014 and in less than a year has become one of the most respected producers out. A big part of his rise has been slew of impressive remixes for everyone from Bill Withers and Bastille to Banks and ZHU. Given that, it doesn’t come as a huge surprise that alt-J connected with the Norwegian producer for a fresh rework of ‘Left Hand…

Ryan Hemsworth’s new record, Alone for the First Time,’ is out November 4th via Last Gang, but you don’t have to wait to listen and…

“To those of you who are easily frightened, we suggest you turn away now, To those of you who think they can take it, welcome…to the mad house”. With Halloween only a day away, I couldn’t think of a more fitting tbt then this. Back in 2009 when Dubstep was just beginning to make noise in North America, underground legend Murs decided…

The Teflon Don drops this chill new track in anticipation of his upcoming release, Hood Billionaire. ‘If They Knew’ features tight production from Timbaland and the sultry R&B voice of K.Michelle, both of which highlight Ross’ low-end rhymes and flowy vocal gait. Hood Billionaire drops on November 24th, but we can help you keep your patience by providing you with another Ross track and…
