Coultrain
Gem Iza Jewel

Download

By  |  May 20th, 2013
Filed under: soul, neo-soul, bilal

Sounds like: Bilal, Solange, Sa-Ra

We’ve shared some of Coultrain’s anachronistic appeal on the Shuffle before; the singer-songwriter’s sounds are from a time generations ago. His Plug Research debut LP dropped recently, and he’s not…keep reading →


Solange
Looks Good With Trouble Ft. Kendrick Lamar

Download

By  |  May 15th, 2013
Filed under: Electronic, female vocalist, hip-hop

Sounds like: Sonnymoon, Knxwledge, Empress Of, Kendrick Lamar

Sounds like: Sene, Knxwledge

King Krule
The Noose of Jah City

Download

By  |  May 9th, 2013
Filed under: experimental, indie, shoegaze

Sounds like: James Blake, Knxwledge, Wu Lyf, Flying Lotus

I’m not exactly sure how to classify King Krule’s “The Noose of Jah City,” and I don’t care to. The British artist used to go by the name Zoo Kid…keep reading →


Queens D.Light
Everything Special

Download

By  |  May 7th, 2013
Filed under: hip-hop, underground hip hop, ras_g

Sounds like: Ras_G, Invincible, Thee Satisfaction

As a culture/genre/industry of its own, hip-hop houses a continuum within itself. You can have two songs that are based on syncopated rhythms with rhyming, metered vocals that are vastly different from…keep reading →


Quasimoto
Planned Attack

Download

By  |  May 1st, 2013
Filed under: hip-hop, underground hip hop, j dilla

Sounds like: Madlib, J Dilla, Knxwledge

From the smokey, idiosyncratic mind of Madlib emerges Quasimoto. Crudely drawn, yellow (or blue) and constantly armed with either a blunt or a brick, this miscreant has run amok in…keep reading →
