NEW YORK (KING KRULE REWORK)
Angel Haze is hands down one of the sickest female emcee’s in the game right now. After releasing her Reservation EP earlier this summer I heard a couple of her tracks and immediately she caught my attention. She has an extremely strong mic presence and although she has a similar voice to Nicki Minaj she makes you forget that she even exists. Here is a remix of her banger New York reworked by the British new wave songwriter King Krule.
Track of the Day: Kanye West – White Dress
Even though this song dropped about a month ago via RZA’s ‘The Man with the Iron Fists’ soundtrack I still have to feature ‘White Dress’ as track of the day. Kanye pulls out all the stops on this one. The smooth and melodic beat sets the tone which was produced by RZA himself. Kanye nonchalantly flows for 3 minutes straight about the up’s and down’s of a past relationship and does it with so much style. Pay attention for the catchy punchlines. Happy Hump Day ya’ll.

Track of the Day: MGMT – All We Ever Wanted Was Everything
Long time no see! It’s time to get this ball rolling with tasty tunez. Last night I was listening to a bunch of random jams on my laptop that I acquired while DJing at 90.3 WRST; and stumbled upon a couple of albums that I completely forgot about and used to love!
Introducing – Another Late Night/Late Night Tales. http://www.latenighttales.co.uk/
This is a mix series put together by a combination of DJ’s and recording artists that is released about 2-3 times a year. The musicians goal is to put together their idea of the best possible late night mix. I was checking out MGMT’s mix for the series which was released about a year ago and came across their original track titled ‘All We Ever Wanted Was Everything.’ Here is an animated video to accompany the song which is eye candy as well.

Cosmogramma
Thats right kids. Flying Lotus is dropping his second full-length LP via Warp Records titled Cosmogramma. I was fortunate enough to see FLYLO absolutely kill it in Chicago a few weeks back when he opened for Thom Yorke. The album is dropping May 4th in the US.

Big Echo
The Morning Benders have just recently released their second album Big Echo via Rough Trade Records. Big Echo was co-produced by Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear and I absolutely love their track titled ‘Excuses.’ Take a look at this amazing version of this song with the Echo Chamber Orchestra recorded in San Francisco.
