Shlohmo teams up with singer Jeremih for his latest track, as far as we know his first foray into a more artist side of R&B. Excellent track from the LA-based producer, with a very Weeknd-y vibe — minus the wannabe pornstar lyrics, of course — which to us is a huge compliment. One of our […]

SBTRKT breaks his recent silence by sending Mary Anne Hobbs a new track, which she giddily debuted on her BBC Radio 6 show this weekend. With “Hold the Line”, the British producer known to his mum as Aaron Jerome doesn’t stray far from the ethereal, moody beats that have made him one of the more exciting […]

Producer unleashes four of his heaviest Baltimore Club bangers
Baltimore producer Blaqstarr — one of the DJs who put the Bmore sound on the map, but best known for his work behind the board (M.I.A.’s “World Town” and “The Turn”, and the smash track with Rye Rye “Shake It to The Ground”) — has just opened up the vault to Mad Decent’s Jeffree’s sub-label.

But Norwegian producer Kygo does a very nice job giving it a completely different vibe while still being ultimately respectful to the source material.

Los Angeles producer gets screwy for Diplo & Friends
Personally one of our favorite producers at the moment, Los Angeles’ Shlomo jumped on Diplo’s “Diplo & Friends” show on BBC Radio 1 for a Halloween-themed set. Which is perfect for Shlohmo, as his slowed & screwed style already has an organic spookiness to it. The 45-minute WeDidIt Halloween Takeover mixtape features tracks by artists […]

Lawrence Bros team up with legendary guitarist & producer
If Disclosure gets any shit, it’s usually from old school purists who don’t think the young’uns have the necessary age to reference their progenitors as well as they do. That’s a bullshit critique — who cares how old you are, as long as the work you do is genuine, honest and more importantly good? Their […]
