    Danny Brown seems to be popping up everywhere lately. His output has been consistently strong, this song included. Backed by a beat that would sound right at home on Heems’ Nehru Jackets, Brown and Schoolboy Q lay verses about their favourite pastimes. It’s a fun song, and will fill

    On August 28th, Wild Nothing will be releasing its latest album, Nocturne, on Captured tracks. While the band can certainly be lumped in with many others chasing after a dreamy pop rock sound, these guys certainly set themselves apart with their memorable songwriting and distinctive hooks and verses.

    Japanese Juke&Footworks Compilation by JAP MUTATION BOOTYISM The sounds of footwork, juke, and ghetto house have come a long way since their Chicago origins, and have caught on in a big way on an international level. Loads of electronic producers have been experimenting with the jittery, high-energy sounds–
