Giraffage – Needs via @AlphaPup Records! (MP3)

Newly signed to Alpha Pup Records, dream pop sample smith, Giraffage has graced our ears with his new release, entitled Needs.  

Having been first introduced to SF based Giraffage (aka Charlie Yin) through his other project Robot Science and his most recent collab with fellow producer XXYYXX, he has consistently shown a deft hand at finessing otherworldly sample progressions over well articulated drums.  His newest release once again delivers the goods — sticking to the tried and true recipe that has proven him to be a top chef in the production game.  Needs has more than a few pieces that are destined to end up on weekend soundtracks or daily listening playlists the world over.  Check it for yourself after the break…
