Empia – Morning Call

The catalog of Carl Elliot continues to grow at a high quality and steady pace. His latest is more Trap of slight but does retain samples using in pervious works. ‘Morning Call’ does also retain his euphoric style which I’m sure most will enjoy.

Future Classics Mix vol 15 | Mixed by Bombaman

Bombaman has been on our radar since before Future Classics conception and eventual launch. His productions have surfaced under many a moniker but remained the same bass heavy, non Dubstep bangers and mash.

fcmv16
St. Petersburg Russia’s Beardus bares a clear affinity for the future music geared towards the ladies of the floor. His impecable taste in Hip Hop woven within, around and over, serves his mixes well, both past and present. Look for more from Beardus by way of Philthtrax & 6HETTO8ASSKREW.

L S D X O X O – BURN feat. DJ Uniique

artworks-000066366659-nyjij1-original
About one month ago Brooklyn Juke / Jersey / Footwork producer L S D X O X O put out a real heatey ‘S O F T C O R E’ EP. After about three days of circulation or sometime in between a lean capital resident went to a chop & screw of the EP’s track six, to a surprisingly enticing effect. Not to mention his doing so to he EP in it’s entirety. Is there more chopped juke n’ footwork out there?

1127Music – Too Many Ha Tracks

avatars-000053840026-0ffnw5-crop
A new entity on the cloud, presumably from Egypt.. 1127Music. Completely devoid of any Ha samples, sounding nothing like Vouge, the track has an expert of an interview with the speaker knocking the convenience of technology “replacing artistry.” Bold words. Too many people forget that the mind behind all the button pushing, knob tweaking, splicing and so on is a human one.
