"Not much. Chilling with my loafers in the snow, you know?"

"Hey man." "Hey Michael, wassup?"
"Not much. Chilling with my loafers in the snow, you know?"
Talk Hard sent me this seamless blend of Kavinsky and B.I.G. called 'Nightcalling Big Poppa' at the exact moment when I pressed play for the Diplo Mad Decent Transformers in the Hood Mixtape. And here you were, thinking the universe was nothing but random events and chaos.
The best Shlohmo tracks are made in moonless absences you have never heard of. And although this new one called "Wen Uuu" is mild and clear, it is still smudged with the darkness blotting out hope, the gale prophesying your downfall.
“Let everything happen to you. Beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.” -Rainer Maria RilkeLet's start the day with some heart-stopping beauty and terror by this guy (who looks like this when posing naked with a bird on his head). Contains snippets from Lost Highway, the Warszaw track by David Bowie that inspired Ian Curtis to start Joy Division (and still kicks major witch house ass today), Brian Eno, Amadou & Mariam and one of my current favourites: Obsessions (oOoOO Remix) by Marina & the Diamonds.
Radio Soulwax is releasing it's New Beat app mix tomorrow, but NME has the exclusive mix up already. I wish you could see D's dance moves when the first beat kicked in seconds ago. More Radio Soulwax HERE.
"Long Gone", a shameless belter from "1997", the free 'internet album' by Terius 'The Dream' Nash gets the video treatment. It's mostly black and white posing with some girl and her cleavage. But it's also a perfect excuse to profess my love for the entire album. The
How did you spend your year since the first Drankenstein mix gave some of the dirtiest, southest rappers of all time a purple nurple they would never forget? I spent it mostly guzzling up new skills, greedier than Lil' Tunechi on a relapse sizzurp bender, and collecting gems from the brain of the dragon. Who ready? Who runnin'? First hater that steps up, is the first one that gets tossed out.
It's the second official The Weeknd mixtape called 'Thursday', you guys. So now Thursday isn't just the new Saturday anymore. It's also the new edge of 21st century music. Drake makes a welcome appearance, bleeps, grinds and general depressive degeneracy abounds. You know what to do.
Just when you thought official Lil' Tunafish mixtapes were about to be extinct: here's the bait for Tha Carter iv. Say what you will, when Wayne gets to cruise missile speed, he still goes hard (for your face, like Oil of Olay) while the rest go figure. OK, enough with the half-assed quotes. Download the thing already.
The 'the sound of Johannesburg' mixtape, a BLKJKSSNDSYSTM collaboration with Domus Magazine and Athi-Patra Ruga, is a real treat for anyone who likes to step off the beaten hype machine track.
There are certain things my family has to live with. One of those things that I imagine are included in the 'or for worse' clause of our (as yet unspoken) vows is my fascination for Claudine Longet.
A no-nonsense full-on party mix for sweat-soaked summer nights. You barely need to move your finger to download, so I suggest you do just that.
Ed Banger's bad boy SebastiAn is set to release a mammoth full-length debut, years and years in the making, featuring the likes of Justice, M.I.A. and Mayer Hawthorne, who provides the vocal for the latest leak: 'Love in Motion'. While you're waiting for the album, I've dug up the legendary 2009 Sebastian Mix for Kissy Sellout.
"The Very Best" with Easau Mwamwaya is essential download material. Their previous mixtape clocked more than a million downloads already. Feat. music from Kanye West, Billy Idol, LCD Soundsystem, Kate Bush, Rusko and contibutions from Baaba Maal, African Boy; Marine Gasolina, BLK JKS and many more.
Death Grips "Exmilitary" is the gritty flipside of The Weeknd's "House of Balloons": balls to the wall, groundbreaking, no compromise hip hop of the future.
