Phirefly – Starlite (Prod. by AstroLogical)

artworks-000069244253-5smzo2-original
Wow, this is all kinds of #Vancouver. Phirefly is based in Vancity, as is AstroLogical. And if you look closely, and know your stuff, the artwork was made by ₵OL!И of Pigeon Hole /&+ Sweatshop Union whom indeed have strong ties to the city. ‘Starlite’ is a dreamy beat, very Westcoast in sound and free for a like.

The Chainsmokers – #SELFIE

The Chainsmokers are tearing 2k14 a new one in a big way. It’s like that side butthole American Apparel ad, except with Dim Mak and better looking. This is their FIRST Original production believe it or not. Grab up a copy HERE. The guys were good enough to include a few facts about the making of the video:

FUN FACT(s):
1) Every time we asked someone special for a #SELFIE they said yes, but then said they would send us one later like it was some chore, when all they had to do was turn their phone around on the device they were texting us from….
2) About 15% of the submissions we got from ppl involved Nudity
3) About 5% involved animals
4) #Selfie was named word of the year in the USA and The Netherlands…
5) Drew’s loves describing the taste of water in different cities.
6) Shower Pressure is very important to Alex

Clayjay – Oompa Loompa

artworks-000069648777-cmqbes-original
Over the years there have certainly been a number of artists playing off the childhood classic. No Trap renditions have made their way this direction if memory serves. It would be pretty tight to see a twerk video made up of chops from the original motion picture to this San Franciscan production.

Neak – XIII

a1021894381_10
Neak is a Chicago rapper, not to be confused with LVL rapper Neako. Neak’s 5th project ‘XIII’ is to serve as a precursor for his album ‘Paura/Amore’ due out in the Spring of this year. It’s crazy to think a full album is a precursor. The concept leads me to believe Neak is on somewhat of a prolific tip. ‘XIII’ being seventeen tracks in length holds so many genres, all put on quite fluidly by Neak. I went in expecting lot’s of new Trap (which there is some of), but when early 90’s esq. sample beats were followed by Latin Jazz type’s like A.M.N.R. I was sold on his versatility. Hip Hop heads will be pleasantly surprised in the variety offered with this album.

‘XIII’ saw it’s own release party on the 24 of Jan. Peep game the video for the amount of live instruments present.

Where is that Young Buck character at these days? How much has his muisc career been reduced for stabbing incidents? Time to get into some internet on the former G-Unit honcho. You’s guys can brush up on him with a free download from LA’a Savcloud. His ‘Gucci Gucci’ Remix Instrumental is now up for grabs to, give him credit on the beat if you choose to use.
