Y’all remember the KONY campaign? Well thank goodness this isn’t it!
I gotta mention that Starboy is my favorite name for anything right now. When I have a son, I will name him Starboy. He will then be picked on and through that, Starboy will learn to fight like a maniac, enter the underground MMA circuit, WITH THAT NAME! Then proceed to win a bunch of titles and become literally STARBOY! World champion fighter. Just sayin.

Been streaming Noer the Boy’s Soundcloud nonstop since I got my new speaker system and I feel like I’m hearing his stuff for the first time. So many layers of intricate beat weaving. I’d say his music borders on sound art for the way it experiments with timing, switch-ups, and futuristic sounds. Never heard anything quite like it.
Noer the Boy’s got a hand in some really sweet collectives throughout the States, namely Noh Life of Milwaukee (Strehlow, harris cole) and California’s Courteous Family (Tsuruda, Woolymammoth) where the bar is high and output is even higher. If you’re not already acquainted… damn son, you are in for a treat.
I love it when I discover a dope artist on Soundcloud who’s actively touring and luckily this is one of those times. You can catch Noer the Boy with DJ Shadow at the Commodore on October 2nd (tomorrow!), and in major cities across North America over the next few months, including Montreal & Toronto.

Atlanta’s Victor Perry ‘4AM Nostalgia’ EP came to light just three short months ago. It gained him much attention for his lyrical capabilities while he explored the complicated nature of both being in love and what love is in itself. Since it’s release the opening track ‘Rainbows’ has been receiving the remix treatment. SMLN, alas, [cardboardbox] and The Wookie have had their takes released. Next up is zewmøb. Delivering possibly the most danceable remix file-able under New Disco and or House, all the while holding true to the 4AM Nostalgia, just of a different time in club music. Their New Disco take with a splash of Future Bass feel good do-goodery is available for free here. Social links for both parties below for the get to know.

Sometimes I hear digital bass and horn samples and I’m like, WTFFF turn this SHIT OFF!! And sometimes, I’m like, ripping off my shirt, letting my grover body be exposed to the elements of my air conditioned apartment, and the desolate stares of the fiends in the back alley, and I dance my Euro heart out. Today is one of those days

This cut is dope. The drop is a perfect amount of pop and not though. True crossover music is tough you guys. It’s as tough as the chicken I tried to cook last night, forgot on the stove and basically turned into a fucking black piece of poultry leather. Also, not sure what’s going on here. Spaces or Spacies?! I looked online but I couldnt get to the bottom of it. I think the artwork guy fucked up yo! Why don’t you help me figure this out and follow them on their Soundcloud ;)

New la flame from the BLU J camp. File under Deep and House. I’ve got to make mention that if pop were to be made with this kind of care and depth, I’d be on board. Grip the free Ariana flip here.

Normally when I hear analog instruments in pop or dance music and especially indie, I am like, ” take your analog guitar or whatever, and slowly jam it up your analog orifice because then it will be more exciting” I can’t stand just regular old instruments, nothing new, same fucking chords just recycled over and over blablablaaaa. Sometimes though, a song gets it right, adds some little synth spices and flavours from different genres of music and then it’s a great experience. So shouts out to Ruby Empress. You hit that niche little note. BLAM!

Normally I hear Ellie Goulding or read her name and im like, swweerrrvveeeeee
But this remix is actually sick because it hits the Major Lazer and Biebs and Diplo sensibilities that I actually love in pop dance music. So I’m gonna continue to pretend to be tough and shit when I go out in public by punching babies in the face, but when I go home I will dance to some Ellie Goulding. Because it ain’t easy being a gangster.
