Trap/Twerk

As Noh Life’s Ian Ewing & Strehlow gear up for their Alaska Cold Tour they’ve blessed fans with a new cut to match the tour name. With some bars from Mike Regal they create an infinitely hazy record that is more chill than Alaska. This is kush blunts and double cups of lean in audio form. Life moves too quickly…

Toronto producer Noahplause is back with a vengeance. After releasing the aptly titled ‘I’m Back’ last month, he followed things up with the even more impressive ‘Nice Yo’ and ‘Bus It’. 3 absolute heaters in the span of a month is no joke but he’s not finished yet. Today we have the pleasure of premiering his latest monster ‘Pull Up’.…

Herobust is here to heat up your winter. After kicking the year off with the filthy ‘Vertebreaker,’ he’s back again with another smash. ‘Dirt Heater Tea’ not only sees Herobust behind the boards but also on the mic. Instead of recruiting a rapper or flipping a sample, he’s decided to drop some bars himself. The result is actually on point,…

Boombox Cartel are beasts. Their QUIX assisted monster ‘Supernatural’ was one of the biggest tracks of 2016 (#9 on our list) and they’re showing no signs of slowing up. Today they return with an absolutely murderous flip of Mr. Carmack’s remix of Kaaris’ ‘Chargé’. Yeah, this is the re-remix. The intensity and richness of the horns could open a medieval…

Veteran Los Angeleno DJ Zooly just dropped “some new 105bpm shit for the 2017,” and the man knows of what he speaks. ‘Wanna’ is the perfect combination of trap and twerk styles for a time when nostalgia has never been in higher demand. The sounds he crafts the track around are familiar and comforting, while demanding dancers get down and…

Medasin is known for his ability to produce wildly different sounds and vibes. Most recently, he’s been leaning toward beautiful, future feels (see ‘Daydream’ and ‘California Heaven’). Today, he flips the script and gets back to that gritty shit with ‘Territory.’ From the first beat it packs a punch. Wonky brass is melded with rugged sound design, gun clicks, and…

Andrew Luce is no stranger to reworks. He first caught our ear with flips of 50 Cent, Twista, Snoop Dogg and more. While his sound has grown and evolved over time, it seems his love for remixes hasn’t been lost. Today he takes on The Weeknd’s ‘What You Need.’  The flip makes the vocals feel triumphant while still remaining sultry.…

Quality Goods Records are creators of the kind of the music their name suggests, and last year saw some absolute bangers get served up through the label founded by bass bad-man UZ. The gang opens 2017 in similar style, and their first release is a multi-artist compilation, QGRC-002. Landing in full on January 20th, one of the album’s most notable…

If you’re a fan of Mr. Carmack or QUIX then you need to get up on Keenan Mathias. The producer has been killing SoundCloud on the low for the past few months with tracks like ‘critical,’ & ‘busta bus’. His latest monster is entitled ‘maple’. The track smashes together Riff Raff vocals with industrial filth, hypnotizing melodies and bolstering bass. It’s…

Gladiator low key murdered 2016. From their stellar Transit EP, to the barrage of boundary pushing singles (‘Half Moon,’ ‘Berserk,’ ‘Plug’) they proved that they’re still at the top of their game. It looks like 2017 will see more of the same, as the duo return with another stellar single in ‘Sierra’. The track embodies the great outdoors, crafting a worldly…
