@DefSound World Premiere! ∂eƒS❍und. // young.defferson. (prt.1-3.finally ) // (Video & MP3)

Avant Garde, nee Avant-God, auteur Def Sound has graced us with a new set of aural permutations that took us a bit by surprise late last night.

Young.Defferson. (prt 1-3.finally), despite it’s interesting choice in nomenclature, is another look into the mind of the producer/musician/artist.  Def tells us that the piece is inspired by a “new lil ‘selfie’ of my inner self,” and it shows.  Indicative of his multi-dimensional nature, Def provides not only the ‘sound selfie’ which takes us through a journey through the Trap into the Nu-Soul and ending up in some inspired Trillwave but also an animation meant to texturally speak to our visual senses.  (Editor’s Note: The original had to be resized because of a display issue… hit @phil_enn on twitter for …

TOKiMONSTA drops The Force Remix EP (Video & MP3)

 

After a well received tour and drop of her much anticipated album, Half Shadows, on Ultra Music, TOKiMONSTA has released some collaborative remix efforts of initial single The Force. 

The original version of The Force had many take notice of how effortlessly her beat skills were able to match up with and contain the energy of featured artist Kool Keith.  Continuing along that line, the remix package drops with remix efforts by legendary house producer Miguel Campbell, NY based producers, Nick Hook and Branchez, UK producer,  Star Slinger, and LA based A.Chai.  Each producer lends a different sound to the track, which makes for some interesting listening …

Read full review of Nostalchic – Lapalux on Boomkat.com ©

WTF is back with something that we hope that you didn’t miss on release day this week.

Being patient certainly paid off for those people awaiting, UK based producer, Stuart Howard aka Lapalux, to drop his debut LP, Nostalchic, on widely praised label Brainfeeder.  Brainfeeder has garnered much respect in the music community as home to releases from such acts as Flying Lotus, Thundercat, and The Gaslamp Killer and has strengthened it’s label with its recent signing of Lapalux.

72 Soul – Fool’s Play EP (Download & Limited Edition Vinyl Contest Inside) (Video & MP3)

“Disgustingly good.”  These were the first words to cross the review table, when we dropped the EP in office. Brussles-based emcee/singer/producer 72 Soul’s Fool’s Play EP is breezy, fresh, atmospheric soul with a touch of class and just enough vintage reverence to give it real legs amongst music and art aficionados.

Yes, we included art aficionados in that statement.

Alongside 72 Soul’s musical collaborations with producers, LuiGi (of duo MonkeyRobot) and Akello Light,  the EP stands as a cross-media creative work.  Through the use of a successful indie-gogo campaign, 72 Soul teamed with director Eric Boni to create a short film to accompany an extremely limited vinyl pressing.

The EP features 4 original tracks with some interlude play from Godard’s Pierrot …

Spree Wilson – Right One | Wrong Time (Video & MP3)

The Q-Tip discovered, Converse approved multi-talented maestro, Spree Wilson is back at it again.  Returning to the lab to prepare his follow up EP to debut effort, The Never Ending Now, Wilson’s camp has gifted us with a video and download of Right One | Wrong Time.

Spree’s first offering from the aforementioned April slated EP, Life in Technicolor, is a bit of a departure from the eclectic, yet well received sound from his debut album.  His LP carried dalliances between Hip Hop, Indie Rock, and all points in between, featuring the work of players such as DJ Wonder, No ID, Novel, and Esthero.  

Where that debut effort …
