S-Type

This whole LuckyMe collective is straight killing it

Ley Kalyan...

...making me break my Ellie Goulding ban for the second time

The original is not my jam, and the ability to totally change it around earns my respect

Sinjin Hawke remixing Dre Skull??

WHAT IS THIS

Falcons(?) touching Busta Rhymes

If you want me to like you, give me a fresh new reason to listen to Busta Rhymes.

Louis La Roche remixing...uh

Just listen to it shut up shut up

Electric Joy Ride and Fusk Asker???

The spirit of Mord is in these children. Bless them father. Bless these little babies.

Brookes Brothers

Doesn't have to be a crazy killer breakthrough every day. Sometimes you can just have solid as shit liquid drum and bass.
This type of music will always be associated with Australia for me, which is weird because liquid is pretty UK-originated. I'm not actually sure what the deal is there.

Flume, remixing Disclosure

I may have linked that AlunaGeorge collab Disclosure did before; I like those guys and....I...
uh....and Flume is this young Aussie with some....uh.
um. uh.
What were we talking about?

Pomrad

Dorian Concept synth approach meets Jamie Lidell one man army approach to beatmaking.

Com Truise

I haven't had an artist push me this hard towards drug use since Black Moth Super Rainbow and that is some of the highest praise I can offer.


It's like if Hotline Miami replaced all of its cocaine with all of the weed in the whole wide world. And I know I've used that game as an analogue descriptor previously but maybe that's just because it's amazing.

Thundercat

Public service announcement that ecstasy isn't limited to the EDM scene.
Also I guess a PSA on fat fucking envelope filters and their myriad rad uses. Myrirad uses.

Kastle remixing Ellie Goulding (covering Alt-J)

I guess this counts as breaking my Ellie Goulding embargo.
These be exactly the noises I want to hear right now.

Hudson Mohawke

The highest praise I can give a song like this is that it is so good, it makes me want to drive into an active volcano.
I can't fucking imagine why Kanye wanted this guy on his record.

REIGNWOLF?!

No words. Nothing.

Jai Paul

I feel like I've put this up before, but a cursory check shows nothing.
Play this loud or you miss stuff.

Four Tet remixing Ultraísta

Dig in.

Evil Needle

German-French groovasaurus rex

helping everyone chill the hell out

Shigeto

....I want a sweet Rhodes piano in my room

For shit like this

Indian Summer

Daaaaaaaang

Danny Byrd ft. Brookes Brothers

This is really good drum and bass. It is decidedly English as fuck all.
I am really into this shit right now.

I guess everything I put up here can have that tag put on it. That might as well be the title of this blog.

Dooqu?

This is exactly the kind of thing I want to put into a mixed set. Dang it so solid.

Studio...Killers?

Okay, so, STICK WITH ME.

A. Virtual band. "Real" members unknown.
B. DANISH. FINNISH. BRITISH.
C. Keytar.
D. LOOK AT THAT VIDEO.

It's so totally different than the standard, more asian virtual band electro pop dealio we see.
It's almost obscene.
No, it's definitely obscene. It's also phenomenal.

Also we, being the collective internet, are pretty damn sure that the lead singer ("Cherry") is actually a man (Teemu Brunila), which is the best possible outcome.

Shamon.

New PrototypeRaptor

Did I not post this already?

This happened.

Klaypex?

When did this happen and how did I miss it what even

EDIT:

FUCKING WOW.
This is really good. I really like this. If you are ever wondering "hey I wonder if we can still do high energy proper working in of female vocals" listen to this.

Savoy

I feel like I've already said something about Savoy but here is more Savoy because those synths turn my head rightside out

Gramatik

Too much anime

Blende

Nu disco forever. I told you I'd go back to Blende

Savant

New Savant record drops today and it's fucking rainbows.

EDIT: Come children. Feast.

Skyy

If you don't think this is the flyest shit you ever heard get the fuck out of my face

Au5 & Fractal?

Glitch hop is an oscillating phase I go through, I guess.
It's very anime, in that it conjures up impossible idealized conceptions of the world in order to tell a story.
It also makes me pensive and insufferable.

Onra

Simple and Tight and Crispy

Julien Mier

I am into this shit right now.

Bonus Round:

Coyote Kisses

Why didn't anyone tell me about this?!
EXTRA CREDIT:

This is why we put up with moombah bullshit. So we can harvest the good and see what things people can do with the new parts.

Knower?

BACK TO THE MID TO LATE 90'Swait this came out this year?

Edit:Okay I'm genuinely losing my mind over these guys what is happening

It's like....if Lone and Towa Tei got sucked into a vector-based videogame made by those music school students from Dirty Loops?

It's like a Hotline Miami soundtrack done by Pomplamoose?
I smell burnt toast. I can't stop listening.
I don't know if I'm a hipster or if I'm on cocaine?

Blende and Surrender Working Together!

I love these kind of synths.
I guess that should be obvious by now?
We'll talk about Blende in more detail later.
This is what it sounds like to be drunk and a teenager.
I guess I'm just glad these songs exist!

José James

Starring Moby on Fender Rhodes, Jake Soolee on trombone, and an unassuming British accountant they found who's surprisingly good at snare-oriented grooves on a simple kit (have I mentioned that's my fucking jam)
PS - game while playing this video is 'count the doodoo faces'

Bombino

Tuareg guitar virtuoso's new record produced by Dan Auerbach. As in, Black Keys.
WHY CAN'T WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE HEADSCARVES ARE A THING.

Uppermost again because NEW ALBUM and also FUCK YOU

AHHHHHHHHHH

Uppermost Forever

Did you know Uppermost put out an album that's like 70% modern rad samples?
Did you know you can get it free on his website?
Did you know it is RADICAL?

Froxic

Glitch hop influences Plasmapool style synths strained through a Koan Sound filter.
This whole goddamn EP, man.

Janelle Monáe

Gaga ideals.
Soulquarian funk.
Unapologetic and slick as hell I'm in love.

PrototypeRaptor AGAINFUCKOFF remushing Soulwax

Can't stop listening

Wise D and Kobe?

Look I don't normally go for straight house music that often but I've been on a real throwback 90's kick and frankly this track is impossible to not like.
Also the fact that this club is in Belgrave, Serbia somehow makes it better?
Everyone is SO BALKAN

Revolte

Holy fucking jesus you french fucking bastards

Elextrixx remixing Felguk

This song is several years old at this point. I had to check to make sure I hadn't put it up here before.
It is fucking phenomenal.
Also I guess you get a picture of Carnage to stare at for a while? Who cares this shit is, if I may say so myself, banger.
This shit is bangers and mash.

PrototypeRaptor

NEW PROTOTYPE ALBUM. GET IT. GO.

Dela ft. J-Live

This is one of the tightest microsongs I've ever heard.
Every goddamn line is killleerrrrrr

Oumou Sangaré

Well lets all just cry
