Sonnymoon – Just Before Dawn (Alt. Take feat. Miguel Atwood-Ferguson) (MP3)

Excited to share the first official single from Sonnymoon’s upcoming self titled album being released in May.

Enjoy a stream of the song “Just Before Dawn” which includes an amazing alternative take from Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist, arranger, and conductor Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. Miguel’s work spans from conducing and arranging Suite for Ma Dukes, the orchestral interpretation and tribute to the late J. Dilla, Flying Lotus’s “Cosmogramma” and Thundercat’s “The Golden Age of Apocalypse” album, and others…

LISTEN To Daedelus Live On KCRW (MP3)

Fabulously foppish beatsmith Daedelus has been an LA treasure for years. But the producer also known as Alfred Darlington has been experiencing a heightened profile lately, sure to be raised even higher with this 30-minute mix he did for SoCal public radio powerhouse KCRW. Says the man himself:

An almost 30 minute mix of a morning live set, really pretty mellow throughout and still a snap shot for me of what I was feeling in 2010. I hope it has weight going into 2012. You’ll notice sounds from Lorn, Floating Points, Tokimonsta, Flying Lotus, and all sorts of non-electronics like Sonic Youth and Beirut, among many many other odds and ends.

HEAR Thom Yorke BBC 6Mix (MP3)

Radiohead seem to have come to a new point in their storied career, where their own music seems almost secondary to the fact that they bring a constant awareness of new sounds to a mass audience that might not otherwise invest the time in finding new music themselves.

To that end, Thom Yorke took to the mixing board for this week’s BBC 6Mix with a two hour selection of songs that are “inspiring” him right now. And while there’s a lot of obvious selections in the set—J Dilla, Caribou, Jamie XX, Flying Lotus—the real tresures are found in the inclusion of artists such as Dabrye, Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbaur, Tapes and Steve Poindexter, whose music flies under all but the most dedicated music fan’s radar.

There is also of course selections from the recently released TKOL 1234567 remix collection, as well as a not before heard “club” mix of Jamie XX’s version of Radiohead’s “Bloom.”

You can glance the tracklist after the jump and stream the full session on the BBC website.
