SAINT LANE - ZIP CODE

Music, Original MixAlli LindseyComment

Born from struggle and hardship, Auckland-hustling rapper Saint Lane is steadily carving out his own atmosphere in the hip-hop scene. Resurrecting an often over saturated sound, “Zip Code” is a hypnotic take on contemporary rap. An audible symbol of Basquiat, this joint is ripe with rhythm, saturated with dope flow and syrupy transitions- whistling tones penetrate the rolling drum beat that define its very nature. Saint Lane’s vocal tenor is approachable yet outstanding, breathing a new life into modern hip-hop. Conjuring up a nasty yet melodic track, “Zip Code” is both a party anthem, and a smoke session necessity. Listen to the movement.

SWAYLÓ - DESERT FLOWER

Music, Original MixSara NatkinsComment

After spending time behind the scenes in the music industry as a festival curator, Austin-based creative Swayló is diving head first into electronic production of his own. His debut single, “Desert Flower” boasts his signature take on tribal-trap. A sonic collision of mathematic sound design paired with worldly cadences, this single is palpable with every transition. A mandala of thunderous bass is complimented by glistening digital frequencies that cascade atop the free-form nature of its entirety. While “Desert Flower” is a hard-hitting listen, it has moments of psychedelia that kindly sooth the trap tenor of which it is defined by. Swayló’s inaugural release is a striking testament to his bright future. Experience the sounds of consciousness with “Desert Flower.”

JONNY SUM - I DREAM EP

Music, Original MixSara NatkinsComment

It’s Friday, and you know what that means- it’s time for the weekend and time to finally get that stressful work relief on the dance floor. That’s why today we wanted to showcase Brooklyn-based artist Jonny Sum’s brand new EP, ‘I Dream’. This two track EP is a dream for any house music fanatic.

The first of the two, the title track as well as the single we decided to highlight here, bursts with an energetic rhythm that you can easily step to. It’s matched with a minimal melody that accentuates the pulsating beat that’s overwhelmingly addictive.

The second single, ‘Mood100’, is exactly what it’s titled. The track will undoubtedly release feel-good endorphins through its vibrating bass, minimal keys, and seesawing sound design. Get your night started and your heart pumping with this diamond of a release.

ODESZA - LINE OF SIGHT FT. WYNNE & MANSIONAIR (CHET PORTER REMIX)

Music, RemixKelsey JamesComment

A year and a half ago, ODESZA released their monumental third studio album A Moment Apart. Since then, the duo dropped various remixes along the way up until today: the official A Moment Apart remix album featuring friends of Foreign Family Collective. Chet Porter is one of the featured artists on the album, being a fan-favorite from the FFC label. Chet is known for his beautiful, ethereal music, which he incorporates in his remix of “Line of Sight,” featuring WYNNE & Mansionair. In this remix, he stays true to the power of the vocals by WYNNE, but manages to add his own pop up-beat flair.

His music always seems to wrap me up in a nice warm hug. Give it a listen and see for yourself!

DIDO - WHITE FLAG (MICKEY KOJAK COVER)

Music, Original MixAlli LindseyComment

If you didn’t cry to Dido’s “White Flag” when you were way too young to be crying to any kind of music, then you haven’t lived. The legendary track is a staple in Dido’s collection, just barely taking precedence over her equally phenomenal release “Thank You.” In a fearless pursuit, Australia’s rising producer Mickey Kojak gave the early 2000s single a chromatic treatment. The multi-instrumentalist and wide-range electronic producer revives Dido’s original with his own vocals and a unique take on the established beat. Although Mickey is goofy and charismatic as hell, his cover is equally as emotional as the original. Nostalgia pairs like a fine with his signature sound here as his vocal presence is more apparent than ever, allowing listeners to delve into a side of Mickey that is often overlooked. This Aussie cutie gets better with every offering, and we’re eager to hear more from the doll himself.
