As part of The New York Renaissance mixtape, Joey Bada$$ has put out a new track entitled "Day In The Life". The bars laid down here are as inspired as ever, with the prodigy dropping his golden-era delivery over a vintage, trumpet-sampling Harry Fraudbeat. Check it out below and download the tape here.
There's a certain aspect to Nicolas Jaar's music that astounds listeners all over. He says it best himself: "If it has its own life, then it's really, really exciting." Jaar could not have described the beauty of his own production any better, with each minimalistic song beaming full of animation and existence. His partnership with The Avante/Garde Diaries produced a breathtaking clip of a man being engulfed by darkness. Unsurprisingly, Jaar is the choice artist to fit the mold of those images. Check out their excellent interview here.
Brooklyn trio Little Daylight have released their second single in "Name In Lights". The cut is aired-out, dreamy, and calm. A contrasting down-tempo tune is not what was expected from the catchy synth-poppers, with their previously released "Overdose" being one of the most infectious songs heard this year. It shows a versatility that keeps listeners wanting more but, for now, these two tracks are all we have. Check out "Name In Lights" below.
Deerhunter have shared the title track off their upcoming Monomania LP, which is out May 6th of this year. The track is bat-shit crazy, with Bradford Cox and company tapping into their garage/noise rock capabilities. Eventually, it works up to a barely-discernable Cox repeating "Monomania" over and over again, with clamoring guitar chords backtracking. The band first debuted the cut on a raucousFallon performance, which can be seen below.
Kastle has put out the latest track from his upcoming LP and, thankfully, it is his much-anticipated collaboration with JMSN. Turned on to each other by Kastle's earlier remix of JMSN's "Alone", the two have recorded two cuts for the forthcoming LP. "Make You Stay" is constructed with that twisting and hazy production that complements JMSN's style so well. Off the atmosphere alone this could easily be his own track, which is not a bad thing. Check it out below and listen to the first single "Red Light" here.
The A$AP Rocky-featuring remix of Jessie Ware's "Wildest Moments" is set to be featured on the North American release (April 16th via Interscope) and the "Gold" UK edition(April 15th via PMR) of her 2012 debut Devotion. Rocky drops a few condensed bars here and you almost wish he would say more. Nonetheless, this is A$AP Rocky on a Jessie Ware track, which would make for a sick future collab. The rework will join the previously heard "Imagine It Was Us" on both editions mentioned above.
