TiDUS – Before It’s Too Late EP (+Download)
As all comes full circle, it was this time last year when Tidus reappeared with Soon You’ll Understand. Since the elusive musician stated the EP would be his first of three connected projects, he also gave listeners another helping of unique and dreamy sounds through the second part, Why We’re Here On Earth. Sealing off an era of exquisite growth comes the final Before It’s Too Late. Like in the first two parts, Tidus speaks to collective humanity through reflections on his own perspective and experiences. Because of this, it is easy to connect and be lost in both compelling word choice and the etheric fields that he creates with…

Pre-Valentine’s Stress Mix (+Download)
My first selection of 2017 is live! It so happened that I was finally done with this in time for the season of love, inspiring the title Pre-Valentine’s Stress. This also features a relatable soundbite from an anime series called Nana. I personally have only ever experienced one celebratory Valentine’s Day and I don’t stress holidays. That being stated, I am aware that many are out there going through some stress, beyond the seasonal theme. I hope those of you who relate find that your aching hearts are soothed by these smooth and etheric jams. Remember that you ARE love and you are loved. Every relationship we develop in life…

Tease Mix (+Download)
Tease is a list I wanted to release by the holiday. It showcases some wonderful new artists I’ve come across in the past months, as well as familiars I have featured previously, and a few classics. All of this music came out this year and it is safe to say that my interest in recent r&b-inspired music is being restored. If only I could turn on the popular radio waves and hear music this good, at anytime. I think we can get there, but for now I’m fine with documenting these gems through my unique mixes. Happy holidays to everyone! Do not forget to support the artists by purchasing their…

Dan∆logOne – Neoteric2
Dan∆logOne is a fantastic Virginia-based producer/creative, who just unveiled a new electronic project this past week, Neoteric2. This has easily become a new summer’s go-to. The EP is formed of instrumentals that range from trappy and higher tempos, to slow and chill vibes. I enjoy each one, especially the remix to The Weeknd’s Earn It, as well as the opening track Moongroovin (Neoteric 2). You’ll find that he has an impressive archive of more music, which you can find through the first of the links I’ve provided below. Have a listen and enjoy for yourself! danalog1.bandcamp.com facebook.com/jeremy.moorer.92 twitter.com/DanalogOne

John Scott BEATS
This Texas-born producer by the name of John Scott has all of the trappy, dreamy rhythmic and hip-hop influenced beats you may ever need. My favorite here is the flip he did of Roy Wood’s Menace. The full length album will be released in November. For now, check out some of his latest vibes below and find much more (including a download of his previous archive) through the links I’ve gathered. Enjoy! soundcloud.com/jxhnscxtt/sets twitter.com/JXHNSCXTT JOHN SCOTT Discography (Download)

Hadassah – Oakmere Drive EP
Get lost in this ultra-entrancing EP by Hadassah. Her sultry jazz-trained vocals blend beautifully with the atmospheric beats featured throughout Oakmere Drive. She touches on many themes, including one which always hits home here, self-love and acceptance. She mentions that this project arrived after a difficult personal period she experienced last year, with finishing school and losing a family member. Knowing this makes the healing vibration of the tracks even more apparent. I especially enjoyed her version of Atmosphere’s classic God’s Bathroom Floor, Real Feat. Maassai & Akai $olo, Ocean Floor, and Visions. Have a listen for yourself below and enjoy! Support this rare gem of an artist through the…

Close Mix (+Download)
Here is something new for the men to play…for the ladies and all lovers. I enjoyed selecting this playlist, which began as a follow-up to Love Maker, but took off to be its own synchronistic vibe. As you might have noticed by now, I am a great fan of slowed down music, especially when it’s stuff from the 90’s. I was sure to include some of my favorite throw-back r&b jams, touched up and remixed, as well as brand new gems which you will definitely thank me for later. All of these dope artists can be found throughout the web, including Soundcloud and Bandcamp. Support them and download this playlist…

Like – Emeralds
It has been a while since I have been in lost in a new and true beat tape, but Like’s latest yanked me right into its realm and I love it. The beat-maker, who is also known as a member of the super group Pac Div, recently released a solo collection of instrumentals. There are a juicy amount of songs here that I enjoy vibing to, my current favorites being Emeralds, Jazz Cats, Yola Yola, Strange Love, Inspire, and Yes Mccann. Enjoy the project in its entirety below and follow the links to support and keep up with Like! iTunes callmelike.com facebook.com/callmeLike twitter.com/Callmelike

Ankhten Brown & Eyedress – 420/20 Vision EP
Listening to Eyedress of Babe Slayer led me to many other dope musicians he supports, such as Ankhten Brown. The two released a collaborative EP called 420/20 Vision on the universally acknowledged holiday for lovers of our little green herbal friend. As usual, Eyedress’ production is beyond being on point, while he adds a few verses to the project as well. Ankhten Brown’s stunning lyricism is the other main focus as he goes on non-stop through-out many of the tracks. My current favorites are Emperor Steeze, Mowgli Jesus, Black Sheep Boyz, and Booty Vision. Listen for yourself below! eyedress.bandcamp.com facebook.com/AK47SHIP facebook.com/babeslayer777
