DJ SLIINK - TEXT UR NUMBER (REMIX) FT. (FETTY WAP + DJ ENVY)

Music, RemixSara NatkinsComment

Born and raised in Jersey, I have to admit- there’s nothing I love more than a good ol’, quality Jersey Club record. That said, it was only natural that when I was passed along the legendary DJ Sliink’s latest release, I couldn’t resist sharing its Jersey club greatness with all of you.

Those who are dedicated Fetty Wap fans (like myself) are most likely familiar with his 2017 jaunty single “Text Ur Number,” which had previously credited The Breakfast Club's DJ Envy and Sliink with its initial release. But interestingly enough, the rendition I'm posting here is not a "remix" fundamentally. Rather, this is what was supposed to be the original production of ”Text Ur Number.” But of course, radio couldn’t handle the quick-tempo vocal chops and bouncy, blood-pumping beat behind the latter and put out something that was more “radio-friendly” instead. All I have to say is, I am much more than thankful this OG version was revealed.

[PREMIERE] CHINA ROSES - PIEDATERRES

Music, Original Mix, PREMIEREAlli LindseyComment

Combining elements of hip-hop, electro-pop, and femme musicianship, Aussie’s own China Roses is creating a genre all their own. Their latest release, “Piedaterres” is an intellectual, musically effervescent piece righteously saturated with feminine energy. Seductive vocals complement a house-esque production that fearlessly enter the bloodstream, possessing the listener with a signature sound. A full metamorphosis unfolds as the track reveals itself, as the twosome works in synchronicity to create a story with instruments, both internal and external. This blossoming track is both introspective and thrilling, putting China Roses on the map and fossilizing their swift come-up in the ever-changing music industry.

LMBO - DYSPHORIA

Music, Original MixAlli LindseyComment


Manipulating an accurately self-proclaimed genre of vibes, LMBO strikes once again with their original track, “Dysphoria.” The twosome carries the burden of collaborating cross-country, while one member hustles in New Orleans, Louisiana and the other is a prominent member of the Michigan music scene. Despite the distance, the duo is equally as formidable as outfits who work closely together. Their latest release is a striking piece- gentle, yet simultaneously brooding and saturated with a fluid rhythm. Gentle melodies complement a breathy, house-oriented cadence that cascade upon crisp, full-bodied vocal chord progressions. This framework of cross-genre fixtures work not only as a musical piece, but a proper work of art. "Dysphoria” is set to be a breakout single for the ever-so-unique LMBO, fossilizing their imprint as one of the most exciting acts to watch this year.

Music, RemixAlli LindseyComment

Making massive waves in the electronic music industry, LA’s own Madnap returns with a remix of Kill Paris’ “Red Lights” featuring Dotter.  A creator with a deep sense of wanderlust, Madnap has performed in cities by the likes of NYC, Chicago, and even London, England. As his global influence continues to unfold, his dexterity follows the same pattern. Fluid and versatile, this particular flip is an echoing chamber of textured production, consciously rewiring KP’s original mix. Radiating walls of synth drip with swagger, puncturing the OG mix with a revitalizing energy. Robust and memorable, this “Red Lights” remix is one of his finest flips to date. Kick off your week by exploring this righteously maddening labyrinth of sounds.

AOBEATS - PILOT MIXTAPE

Original Mix, MusicSara NatkinsComment

It's pretty safe to say that Moving Castle founder AOBeats just won over our hearts here at Beautiful Buzzz with his latest project, an 11-track mixtape titled "Pilot." Featuring Moving Castle comrades like Manila Killa, Robokid, and Sakima, AOBeats also enlisted an assortment of other talented names such as Mark Johns, Satica and many more to help bring his musical vision to life. "Pilot" is much more than what we bargained for when we heard AO was dropping a mixtape. Pulling a spectrum of elements from genres such as pop, electronic, hip-hop and trap, each track is just as ear-pleasing and addicting as the next. Major props to everyone involved in this project, as it's by far, one of AOBeats' most incredible yet. With music that sounds this good, you can find me sitting on the edge of my seat in anticipation for what else is to come from him.

[PREMIERE] NØLL - ANYMORE FEAT. AIDAN JAMES

Music, Original Mix, PREMIEREAlli LindseyComment

Texas’ genre-defying mystic nøll just revealed his digitally enchanting single, “anymore” featuring Aidan James. The first single to release from his debut EP, “anymore” is a dynamic labyrinth of notes and bars working together to cast spells on its listener. Vague trap samples glide atop a down-tempo r&b production, where classically digital electronic music expels outward. The lyricism in “anymore” is defined by a robust vocal ebb and flow, flickering with passion and seductive allusiveness. The future is bright for nøll- “anymore” stands as a palpable  testament that music is nothing short of a calling for this young taste-maker. Experimental and approachable- it’s one you need to feel.

"As a producer, it’s always a struggle to decide what you want “your sound” to be. I’ve decided that the only way to derive that authentically is to base it off what YOU think sounds good. Around this time last year, I became obsessed with acoustic guitar sounds. I knew Aidan, who does cool looping things with the ukulele, and sent him a beat based around this one guitar riff. We both bonded over that organic mix of percussion and live guitar. After he sent me the vocal, I knew I wanted to build an atmosphere that fit the somber vibe. To achieve that, I played around with different foley and glitch samples to build a sonic landscape. I always wanted to juxtapose an experimental soundscape with layered harmonies. For the vocals, I wanted it to seem very much like an internal mental struggle with oneself; much like listening to a devil and an angel over your shoulder." - nøll
