February 28th, 2012 by Aeneas (15) Art


Manchester’s Andy Stott has always been one the most under-appreciated and overlooked UK producers in our opinion. Luckily for the fine people of Amsterdam, Andy Stott will be headlining the first edition of ROTS. Supporting him will be Dj+ (Nachtwerk), Ben Klein (Edge Engineering) and Inuk (Green Room). ROTS takes place this Saturday at OT301 and you can win yourself a pair of tickets by leaving your name & email address in the comments box below.

Amsterdamers also be sure to check out Lando Kal, Eats Everything, Gomes and Cinnaman at Colors [Trouw] this Friday night. Hurry up and grab your ticket now because the show is about to sell out!

WILEY – NEW VIDEO “EVOLVE OR BE EXTINCT”

February 22nd, 2012 by bigup (3) Art


Don Wiley does it again. He spits fire on the self-produced fire riddim, two and a half minute straight. With lyrical acrobatics that flip and slide through fast-handed jokes, acute observations and boldface call-outs on any non-believers. “This is Wiley’s war face, with each line slamming stronger than the last. He doesn’t even stop to take a breath (or create a chorus, for that matter). Pure focus, drive, intent, power… quite simply as raw as it gets.” The video is once again pure hit, simple concept, bright colors, what more did you want really? Oh, and this: “Oi oi oi fam! You don’t understand! you see, if you’re not spitting this way on the 140 bpm, you’re not evolving rudeboy.” Go on Wiley!

HOURGLASS SEA – PREMIER AND FREE DOWNLOAD

January 30th, 2012 by bigup (0) Art, Music

We heart Pixelord, and the rule of thumb is it cannot get better than Pixelord in this particular music style. However, this guy from Bradford, Yorkshire somewhere in the UK called Hourglass Sea (or Dean Bentley for mom) managed to make Pixelord’s track even better! Don’t believe us? Fair enough, cause it’s Pixelord we’re talking about, but check for yourself. Hourglass Sea is premiering his single “Once In A Lifetime”/ “Imaginary Friends” via yours truly. “Once In A Lifetime” is up for a free download and you can stream remix of Pixelord’s “Imaginary Friends” right here. Quality.

WEEKND REFIX FOR THE WEEKEND

January 29th, 2012 by bigup (2) Art, Blog, Music

If you don’t know about Those That Know – the eclectic trio comprised of producer J. Hoskins and rappers-singers Tuuobillion and Saint Kay – this weekend is the right time to get to know. If before we liked them for their hot beany-hats, there’s a better reason now. They have refixed “Loft Music” by The Weeknd, and it’s great, which is so rare in this age of a bazillion bad Weeknd remixes. So hit play to listen and watch the video (which is pretty awesome as well) and get ready for more, because a little birdy told us there are three great refixes coming up from Those That Know very soon.

The video is for side A of the first single to drop before the album – “Air Breaker”. Directed by Goth-Trad’s Tokyo-based VJ DBKN, the video is a trippy mix of Enter The Void credits, Eskmo’s “We Got More” and your broken TV.
