Lone – “Karen Loves Kate” (MP3)

Lone is a producer that’s been around a bit; since his days in the very underrated duo Kids With Tracksuits, to his own project that’s been bouncing around labels since 2007, his music paints a dreamy landscape of hip-hop beats and saccharine synths in a disjointed utopia within each and every track. With each passing release, his sound has gotten more evolved and abstract, and with an upcoming album release off the fantastic WERKDISCS label, we got an exclusive track to share with the experimental beat-craving massive.

Download “Karen Loves Kate” off the upcoming album Ecstasy & Friends HERE

FaltyDL: Sleep-Deprived Soul Shuffle

The sound of New York provided by Barbara Streisand? 

4AM is a time to sleep for most, getting back home from a long night for some, or staggering back to the bar for last call for a chosen few. But for others, it’s time to get to work. FaltyDL is one of those late-night/early-morning workhorses; making tunes from the depths of his mind and getting it onto an iMac at odd hours of the day and night, just trying to figure out what to do with samples, synths and shuffles once he’s in the zone. Drew Lustman, the man behind the moniker, carries on his days by listening to new tunes, tweeting over new releases and old-school hip-hop, eating Chinese food on internet broadcasts and proudly proclaiming his appreciation for ’90s jungle and Aphex Twin. But …
