Through all the mean mugging gangster violence we hear about coming from Chicago Slot-A shines through with oh so much chill. Reworks and remixes all over the place in every new way. His latest project ‘Shades & Flavours 2’ includes fourteen of works like this. These are just two standouts from along list of a piece of Chicago you should know over the mainstream news that precedes the city.

Two things; it’s Missy’s year, and second, mash ups seem to be trending back in. Does anyone remember AM:FM:PM?? Tha blog dedicated souly to mash ups, and amongst the earliest in memeing? There might soon be enough steam for them to roll back in. Esp. if the “custodial art engineers” by the name of Beta Sector keep churning jams like this. A perfect party ripe piece comprised of “Work It meets the Bar-Kay’s giant break from Holy Ghost, along with a host of classic hip hop samples.” Put the needle on the record.

Ever since the homie KAMM introduced Show Clothes it’s been nothing but up and up for the Chicago based Tropical master. I for one was thinking T-Pain had peaked when we all heard him sing for real. Obviously it could go the other way entirely, but, fan I’ve never been. And leave it to a remix to sway one back in the other direction of your feelings on an artist.. Disconnected ramble end, just listen and love.
And in the spirit of boo caressing music you should also get in on his Mariah flip.

At long last Autograph released their first original production. If you can believe it, everything until this post has been a remix, and we all felt like we knew them so well. Feels as though it’s all been a dream. Also at long last, a long overdue last is this post, apologies. Do the follow thing and grow up with these guys.

Fresh as fresh can be this is. New name on the scene, first track. Go on ahead and name anything fresher than that combo. And hand picked organics do not fall under the same umbrella. G-House is where this lands, say so said by Flashy Ways. Hit play with an open mind, so as not to get cornered, there is plenty of familiar in this chune. Some might even wander into mash up thoughts. Keep em’ earballs clean for future Flashy Waves.

Shaunic the hedgehog ain’t the yungest in the Jersey game, but he’s on of the city’s better reps of the club exclusive genre ;) A legend in his own right. It’s a new trubute piece to the legend Drizzy, the only one. Reach out and grab it.

Pigeon Hole tend to kick up the most dust in the new year leading up to festival time. It’s a good sign. Tends to get the mood built. This year has some G-Funk in rotation, another welcome surprise. The Snoop D O double G laced wobbles on in a true West Coast fashion.
