Out of left field comes MDNT, a vocalist and performer that you simply would not expect to be blasting onto the scene with his new brand of what he calls "future soul". While a lot of people have been throwing the word "future" in front of old genres when breathing new life into a style, MDNT's signature sound fits "future soul" like a broken-in winter coat you've been wearing for a whole season. His approach to soulful vocals is that of a raw, undefined artist that will surely have an established niche very...
Cabo Blanco happens to be one of those NYC based "underground" producers with a highly developed grasp of music and sound engineering. He doesn't spam everyone with requests for likes or constant emails. He releases quality material as it is perfected, and when I say perfected, I mean it. His signature sound is hard to nail down but one thing is consistent in every one of his releases so far, the emotion is deep and apparent. Sometimes the ratchet side of Cabo Blanco creeps out on tunes like "Slip-N-Slide" with guest...
I'm not even going to make an excuse. My list of mixes and tunes really range across a huge spectrum of forward thinking music on this week's edition of Weekly Flavours. The choice cuts range from dreamy rnb stylings from Kaytranada and all the way to acid-inspired, dark trap music...
∆lex Young. 16 years old. Yung trap god. The kid has been blazing a trail all over the trap scene ever since his remix for SBTRKT's "Wildfire" dropped on the internet 4 months ago, mind you, he was still 15 at that time. I think it's safe to say I heard his remix played out more often in the...
Someone call the smoke jumpers because this EP is straight fire! Cobra Krames just dropped his track EP "Smell My Cologne" with Cerebral Vortex and it’s ready to be served extra hot to all you trap fans. Krames is a Brooklyn based producer/dj & creator of Gold Whistle, a platform for...
Wow, where to begin. There are few songs that can give me physical shivers and goosebumps anymore but MORRI$ has, by far, affected me in that way on "Ladyboy". That says something about a producer in this day and age. Emotion has been stripped from so many avenues of music from the obligation of...
Here we go again with another edition of Weekly Flavours. Back up in the trap. For those of you that have been living on some interstellar planet far, far away in a distant galaxy... trap has been taking over the airwaves, DJ booths, radio stations, and iPods of most of us earth creatures down...
Rest assured. This week's smorgasbord of future-fancied tunes has been culminating over the past few weeks. Sometimes genres can't really describe what is going on from one song to the next. Future bass is an easy way to categorize what I have otherwise referred to as "forward-thinking sounds."...
