    Storm Queen - It Goes On (vox)
    [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.] 46 plays

    You must have seen this on a bunch of blogs already but it’s too good not to post here too. The follow up to last year’s Look Right Through, here’s Storm Queen’s (Morgan Geist to his mum) latest. Love this.

    Thundercat - $200 TB (prod.Flying Lotus ft. Austin Peralta)
    [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.] 90,393 plays

    Here’s a list of everything I love about this:

    • Tight bass
    • Warm keys
    • Cover art
    • Future noises
    • Imagining a smoke-filled jazz bar filled with cartoon musicians…
    • *Puts down jazz fag, steps away from cyberspace.*

    Danny Drive Thru - Violence Makes (Naive Machine Remix)
    [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.] 1,424 plays

    Big up to da man dems Danny Drive Thru! Here’s a biggie set for release real soon on Manchester’s Mind On Fire Records. I’ve known Danny for a long time, we’ve been friends, flatmates, and thrown a christmas tree out of our flat

    People like Kutmah and Thom Yorke are already on to him (playing the track he’s probably currently most known for - Virtua Ante Up) on the Stones Throw Podcast, and at Low End Theory respectively.

    Well proud of him. If you’re around Manchester this Friday, pop along to The Soup Kitchen for the release party at the Soup Kitchen and give his cheek an auntie-type squeeze from me!

    Pieter.

    Exist - Lookin' At Blue
    [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.] 2,652 plays

    In a way this reminds me of the classic Irfane - Just a Lil’ Lovin’.

    This is great; that piano hook that builds and builds… this is just full of YES.

    That was just a snippet but here’s the full track (Tumblr wouldn’t let me post a private URL). It was just released on the 22nd of Sept and can be purchased in wherever you like to buy your digital vinyls and flat MP3’s.
