THOREAU X TINA DECARA - ILLUSION

After a slew of successful remixes, our boy Thoreau has finally released his first original, and it was certainly worth the wait. His latest effort, an exploratory future bass record "Illusion" is an epic tune from the second you hit play. It starts with string plucks and sound effects as ethereal ahh's lead us in to Tina Decara's first verse. The tune envelopes you in pulsing gyrations of sound right after she sings "I'm High on the way that it feels" leading us into an impactful chorus with an energetic rhythm section and warped vocals. The second verse brings in Thoreau's signature blend of beats and rock guitar. We've come to expect a spicy blend of guitar and synths in most of Thoreau's productions, and this one falls right in line. Illusion is a dope addition to his growing catalogue of sweet tunes and is a proper advancement in his sound.

RUSTY HOOK - RELIEF (FT. TRUITT)

For the unawares, Rusty Hook, aside from his contribution to the Slow Hours project, has been lurking around SoundCloud racking up millions of plays and drawing off the oldest heads on the platform. He has been building his cv and biding his time, but now he is ready to release his first original project, Romance is Dead, Good Riddance. The first single of the compilation, ‘Relief’, features smooth and colorful vocals from brother-sister duo Truitt. Rusty Hook’s production on the track blends R&B with electronic, leaving a lasting impression. Combined with the sultry lyrical delivery of Truitt, the track truly shines.

SJ - REFLECTION (FEAT. ANNA PANCALDI)

Tritonal's label Enhanced has just given us their latest offering - a song first deep house tune "Reflection" from new producer Sj that really struck my fancy. The tune features Anna Pancaldi's lovely vocals encased with silk like layers of swirling synth work that cast a warm aura around the first verse. "Without Your Love, I have no reflection" she sings in the vocal chorus entreats us into a chill deep house drop that goes down oh so smooth. Apart from music, Sj has a cool story because he started an organization dually based in Nashville and Calcutta, India called One Life, which helps transform places of poverty in Indian slums to places of possibility. Among other projects, One Life has created a safe space called “Our Dream Home” which is home to 25 girls who broke free from poverty and physical/sexual abuse situations, and acts as a resource for them to live comfortably with long term care and development. I'm especially down to support artists that are equally willing to give back to others not only with their art but also their time and energy. 

BUZZZMIX VOL. 43 - JULIUS JETSON

LOUIS THE CHILD - RIGHT TO IT (FT. ASHE)

Yesterday was a rough one ..... and I'm not sure I feel much better today. For those of us who work in the live music industry, the Las Vegas mass killing cuts us in a different way. I wont get too political here because it's early and I've not had my first cup of coffee, but this gun death epidemic is real, and I hope we can make some positive changes soon. On the brighter side of things, my bb boys Louis The Child dropped a new one that's definitely an end of summer anthem. With that easy going Louis The Child vibe mixed with groovy future feels and bouncy Caribbean melodies, "Right To It ft. Ashe" is everything I need. I can't wait to see my sweet boys again on their upcoming Last To Leave Tour - you can check dates HERE!  

PAPA YA - OOM ZIGGA (FEAT. MALCOLM ANTHONY)

Our favorite sunny duo Papa Ya is back with a new original that's an absolute trip! The boys have constructed a fun, definitely pop leaning record "Oom Zigga" that's pretty much onomatopoeia-land. To be honest when I first heard it I was a little taken aback with the in-your-face unapologetic and borderline cheesy tribal nature of the tune, but upon second listen I couldn't help but smile and laugh. Look if you take music too seriously then this might not be the record for you, but if you know the guys (Alex and Nate), and their previous releases then you can fully appreciate how silly and perfect this song is. First of all they're called Papa Ya which I think inherently implies a little jungle-istic nature to it, and the guys are simply hamming it up. The production is really well done, and the verses from Malcolm Anthony add a cool factor fully legitimizing the tune. Have a laugh, drink a piña colada and turn up the Papa Ya! 

THUTMOSE - BLAME

LA-based artist management group, TH3RD BRAIN houses relations for artists like ZHU, Krewella, and Gallant- noteworthy acts to say the least. But, the collective brakes for musicians who are still on the come up as well. TH3RD BRAIN's latest addition is Thutmose, the Nigerian-born, NYC-living hustler who is blazing trails for the entire community of not only hip-hop, but the world of art entirely. His latest track, "Blame" is a bump that is platinum-worthy- capitalizing on a mainstream, hip-hop cadence while remaining novel and distinct. Combining production fit for the world of dance music, and seductive, rhythmic rhymes, "Blame" chews you up and spits you out, fiercely. His presence is dominating, and certain. The world of rap goes to the beat of its own drum, as high-profile rappers are redefining it's aesthetic and sound every moment, of every day. But leaving a legacy in that community is challenging. Thutmose, on the other hand, is humbly taking the throne as one of the best young rappers in the game right now. He uses bold production, and delivers lines clearly, and consciously. "Blame" is only a stepping stone in what will be a long career for the rapper- watch this space.
