Kiesza – Give It To The Moment feat. Djemba Djemba

It’s more of a produced by credit if you think about it. But who knows wtf is going on anymore, things just aren’t the same. Djemba Djemba has been venturing into the mainstream more and more, to me the his working with Rapper Bukkweat Bill may have been a turning point. Once the bass drops though, it’s same ol’ Djemba. He keeps it real in the bass for whomever. DL for a price.

Villa Medema – na na na

Got a new one for yall’s. Villa Medema, an unheard name until today based out of Denver, and member of new collective CVILLOU has let loose a hard chilling heater. Using Akon’s ‘Right Now’ as the R&B key to our hearts, backed by substantial bass, dreamy af synth work, and drums to lean to was made one to bliss out to.. so hard. Check up on the artist and collective for future works.

OBESØN – Friend To An Enemy

There’s no questioning the rise and prominence of collectives. And it’s funny how “union” is such a dirty word and “collective” is so sought after.. Hegemon though, huge strides on it’s rise to a current abilty of 27k plays in a day. It’s no wonder Apple and the big three are laying so hard into streamings own ability of reach. Rant points aside OBESØN went very chill in the Trap for the Nest QH Premiere. Free DL HERE.

Shako – Indunk

Let’s just take a moment and bow our heads. Think of Boy 8-Bit in the early thousands and how dope he was. Then let’s shift toward the notion of Acid revival. Now, combine the two and before you now is one of Boy 8-Bit‘s more recent monikers with which he has delved into such waters. Out on Revival Turf.

Nora En Pure – U Got My Body (UFO Project Remake)

Of late what has been keeping my attention to an artist or a track is any playfulness. Playfulness for me being genre melding, and lightness, overall. Dirty wobbles are certainly a huge selling point as well. This remake comes as a re-introduction to Spaniard UFO-Project after an number of years. And it seems as though the producer has been sending out plenty of the right vibrations in that time. It’s being tagged #RebelBass, but you can decide.

Xaatu – Models

It’s a Kanye “Good Life” vocal sample innit but there’s a good chance you wouldn’t have noted it if you hadn’t read this first.. Hit it and cop the free HERE. #MoreAssThanTheModels

Leikeli47 – Fuck The Summer Up (KRNE Remix)

Was reading some words on the pace of accomplishments achieved by Ekali since he first surfaced under the moniker. Shortly thereafter noticed a re-post from Ekali of KRNE. KRNE being another name that has risen to prominence in what seems to be a very short time as well, mind you I don’t know the actual timeline. But it’s with tracks like these that make his rise a no brainer to anyone who may be in question. Listen to the original by Leikeli47 HERE. And bang out to KRNE’s above, of course.

PS.  If you’ve been lacking in M.I.A. this’ll quench nice.

DJ Mehdi – Signatune (Masayoshi Iimori Edit)

It’s weird to be back. But it’s high time I took to the keys again. For my first in months it felt right to begin again with what I believe to be the most appropriate and relevant way the beloved DJ Mehdi’s ‘Signature’ could have possibly been touched. Japan’s Masayoshi Iimori, who has gotten a god nod from Nest HQ hit ‘Signature’ as his latest revisit in a series of cira 2005 Ed Banger Records remixes. This one is such a dope journey you just can’t miss it.
