This month, Fatima working with London producer fLako (aka Dirg Gerner) release their single “Black Dough” […]

November Playlist: New from Ta-Ku, James Blake, The Stepkids and Jonwayne
Our November Spotify playlist starts off melancholy with our favourite pick from Ta-Ku’s newest record “Songs To Break Up To”.

October 2013 SoundCloud Playlist – New Rainy Milo and Yuna x Robin Hannibal
Found some musical gems in this month’s SoundCloud playlist. Pay special attention to 17 year old UK singer, Rainy Milo’s new track “Don’t regret me” and relish in her refreshingly London accented, hazy jazz infused hip-hop beats. Also take note of Eprom’s remix of Kendrick Lamar’s M.A.A.D. City ”“ best heard as you work out […]

May 2013 Spotify Playlist – Romare does it again plus Toddla T, Pomrad, Nicolas Jaar and more…
Obviously slightly obsessed with Romare this month on both Spotify and SoundCloud. He is clearly an artist with some serious sampling skill. His track Your Love (You Give Me Fever) shows off that skill with some frenetic soul-heavy cuts from Peggy Lee’s “Fever” which is looped throughout the track. Enjoy! 2013 May: Romare, Toddla T, […]

April 2013 SoundCloud Playlist – Romare remixes Kodaline and makes it way better plus new Kaytranada, Four Tet & MeLo-X
Bit of a bumper SoundCloud playlist this month! There’s something in here for everyone including Kodaline fans. The original Kodaline track, High Hopes isn’t normally my cup of tea ”“ a little too mainstream-radio-boy-band sounding for me ”“ but London producer Romare has really made it his own by picking up the beat, cutting it […]
