Trap/Twerk

Woolymammoth and Tsuruda are both highly regarded for their immensely inventive and often dark sounds. So when the two come together for a song it’s only fitting that those attributes are magnified exponentially. Working on a remix for Crooked Colours, they drag the already downtempo ‘Step’ into a deep abyss. A minimal backdrop allows the haunting vocals to take an even…

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…

Medasin might just be this year’s most exciting break out artist. His collaborative EP Pink Polo with Masego was one of this year’s best releases and production for IshDARR and a slew of killer SoundCloud drops have proven he’s got the versatility and consistency to stick around for years to come. His latest release ‘null’ further illustrates the fact. A mixture of…

Up-and-coming Toronto based producer/DJ, Internet Daughter, landed on our radar with her remix of Saint and Uniiqu3’s ‘Yo (I’m Lit)’ and a killer collaboration with Noahplause. Today she returns with another heater in ‘Damn Girl’. Her grittiest work to date, the track combines pitched down vocals, with menacing horns, foot-in-your chest kicks and some snappy snare rolls. All this amounts…

Two of the trap game’s finest, TroyBoi and Stooki Sound, have decided to come together for a massive collaboration entitled ‘W2L’. The track boomingly welcomes listeners to London. But this isn’t an exploration of Buckingham Palace and the Natural History Museum on a bright red double-decker bus. This an audio journey through dark alleys, cold streets and basement clubs. The intro…

Australian producer Sable’s dark alter ego Shadow Sable has been creeping his way into our SoundCloud feed with banger after banger. From ‘Player 1’ and ‘Want It’ to ‘Team Rocket’ every single tune has been pure heat. Today Sable proves the consistency of his side project with the release of ‘Realm’. The track drags you into the darkness with entrancing…

The power of music is undeniable. From making us to dance, to altering our moods and providing us with a feeling of togetherness and belonging. There isn’t much that music can’t do. Further underlining this is the latest release from Polar Youth. ‘Zhongguo’ illustrates the transcendent power that music holds taking listeners on a worldly journey that is evocative, reflective and…

Looks like there’s another producer coming out of Australia who’s posed to slay the game. Sydney based Moonbase Commander just uppercutted his way onto our radar with his new release ‘Southpaw’. It’s everything we love about trap: pitched down vocal loops (what up Rich Boy!), tidal waves of bass, and abusive 808’s. Mix in some epic futuristic synths and air…

RL Grime has been keeping things pretty hush since he dropped his VOID album earlier this year, but today he finally let the wraps off of the remix he teased fans with earlier this month. ‘The Hills’ is a great track by The Weeknd to begin with but this trap rework is also pretty amazing. Grime takes the dark trap…
