    Finally the voice that accompanied many of the great SBTRKT songs on this self-titled LP has released some solo work to go along with an upcoming EP, Dual, set to release July 29th. Sampha is really able to stand out as he can maintain a smooth delivery in his R

    When it comes to the more creative side of hip hop beats, Ras G is one of the oldest sonic alchemists on the West Coast today. He’s got a new album on the way via Brainfeeder Records this year, and from the sound of this first track from it,

    Sun Araw releases this video and track as a premiere on Chocolate Grinder. The song is a meandering guitar-pedal jam without forward momentum, a lazy summer afternoon refracted through Sun Araw’s psychedelic lens. Percussive clicks, synthesizer washes, and what sounds like a very-manipulated insect noise cycle through the piece,
