Trap/Twerk

Rising producers ELEX & Shwirl first caught our attention with their releases on Crystals Vol. 2. Today they return with a collaborative effort entitled ‘Slow Hype’. The track begins deceivingly slow and stunning. Birds chirp as powerful keys conjure a melancholy vibe. Militant snare rolls lead us into a much more fierce section. A laugh switches the scene as we’re dropped…

Sydney based producer Hydraulix has been slaying the scene on the low for a minute. With a ton of collabs with Oski, official remixes for the likes of Excision, Herobust and Habstrakt, and a bunch of killer originals, he’s one of Australia’s illest out. Despite this and his 30k SoundCloud followers, it still feels as though he’s being slept on.…

UZ is trap legend. The mysterious producer helped to define the genre with his ongoing Trap Shit series that began in 2012. The sounds served as the foundation and inspiration for a multitude of trap producers. Over the years, his sound has expanded and grown with his EPs Frontier to Magellan serving as markers. After 5 years in the game, UZ has…

“There’s always been this common practice of how remixers go about wanting to remix something- like it’s a measure of the original artist and their reputation, or how hyped up they are at the moment. I really just wanted to move away from that and hopefully do justice to something I found to be really special and different.” – KRANE…

Newly out is the official remix of ‘Say Less’ from Dillon Francis, and it is most definitely a banger.

Block Society’s LEViT∆TE has been slaying the (electronic) trap game with forward-thinking slappers for a minute. 808 Mafia is a crew of trap OGs founded by Lex Luger and Southside. Their sounds helped to form the foundation of what electronic trap was built upon and they’ve been slaying the rap game ever since. Today, LEViT∆TE has connected with 808 Mafia’s Fuse (‘Moves’)…

Berkeley, CA duo ÖMÖ need to be on your watch list. Hot off a collaborative rework of Cashmere Cat’s ‘9’ with nøll, comes ‘Muevelo’. The track is easily their strongest work to date, combining hypnotic loops with snapping trap drums. An exotic middle-eastern vocal sample is paired with some filthy sub bass for a TroyBoi-inspired sound. Tight vocal chops and…

You know we’ve been fucking with TroyBoi from time. The hitmaker from across the pond blessed fans with a single from the upcoming album Left is Right. The single, ‘Hooper’ features Healthy Chill spitting a mean verse paired with a hypnotic beat. The production on this is fresh and TroyBoi continues to build on his sound by crafting a bounce…

Sydney based producer Hydraulix has been consistently killing it. Whether it’s with originals like ‘Headbang’ and ‘Jam Dizzle’ or remixes of Herobust and Dirty Audio x Rickyxsan, when Hydraulix puts his name on it, you know it’s a certified slapper. Setting the bar higher once again comes the title single of his new EP Madness. With Kei Leeza on the mic,…

UK bass producer Røhaan has been making some major noise as of late, whether it is collaborating with the likes of Untitld and umru or dropping his own originals (see ‘Broken Society’). His sound is wonderfully weird and marvelously forward-thinking. It’s not made for the masses, but those who get it are guaranteed to be amazed. Never has this been more…
