S.Maharba - French Maid

Out of the dungeons of Ispwich, S.Maharbra resurfaces with a gem, French Maid. With the assistance of now home label BTS Records, S.Maharbra graces us with a very limited 12inch to start things off in 2012. He introduces an extended version of his 2008 track “French Maid” and throws in a remix from The Clonious to make things even more interesting. This is merely the first installment from S.Maharbra and BTS Records. In the coming months BTS Records will re-release and re-master S.Maharba’s 2008 self-titled LP. Is 2012 the year of geeking the f%#k out? Yes!!! So don’t sleep and make sure to grab a copy of French Maid before all 300 copies are gone.

BTS is the label.
S.Maharba is the man.

Guerre

I stumbled upon a wonderful album of remixes a few weeks ago and it keeps finding it's way through my speakers. Sounds like a mix of some of the best new artists of this year with it's own illuminated murky twist. Check out all three of his projects here for free.

Kendrick Lamar x Nosaj Thing

Can Kendrick Lamar do ANY wrong? Every track he's on is fire and Cloud 10 is no exception. An added bonus is that another YYY favorite, Nosaj Thing, produced the track to help promote the new Windows Phone. I'm going to call right here and now for a Kendrick + Nosaj Thing full length...or at least an E.P. because the chemistry is flawless. If you have a few go on over and have a look at the two in the studio working on the track. The Windows Phone tie in is wack but the two artists certainly are not.

Holy Ghost! - Some Children (ft. Michael McDonald)

First Michael McDonald made a surprise appearance covering Grizzly Bear’s “While You Wait For The Others” and I thought, “ok, that was interesting.” This year he collaborated with NYC’s Holy Ghost! on “Some Children.” The track would have been way less amazing without him I must say. His chesty barritone never sounded less than perfect along with falsetto choir boys and indie electro club beats. Try throwing this on at your next house party and just see if you can’t get your guests moving in their tapered skinny jeans.

Frederic Robinson

Wait! He's only 19 and has been producing his own music for 6+ years already? Damn! It most definitely shows. The title of the track, 'Moodswings', is a nice bit of foreshadowing  because it so accurately describes the pace and temperament of the song. I love songs that build while surprising you without feeling forced or going over board. I came across this track while listening to the new Brownswood Electric 2 album. Great next step in an already impressive series.

Bago - Bad on the bottle

This track is influenza, catch it. Super deep moon gravity spacey electric r&b with production by Alexander Spit. This is the stuff that inspires the hell out of me. You can grab Bago's digi- single here for $FREE.99.

SBTRKT

This album has already earned a place on my 'Best of the Year' list and we still have 6 months left in the year. There are only 3 spots on my list that are locked in. This album is a welcome surprise this summer. I don't fall in love with albums easily but when I do I fall fast and hard. Pause. The wonky dub influenced production and the soulful smooth vocals from both SBTRKT and guest artists such as Little Dragon help to make this album one of the most cohesive listens of the year. Last week we posted a video for the amazing Wildfire (Feat. Little Dragon) which should be peeped.

Mo Kolours

It's been a great weekend for new music. I'm pretty damn excited to have as much new, great, music as I do to vibe out to. Excuse the profanity but Mo Kolours EP1: Drum Talking is that shit. Mo Kolours fuses sounds and textures from his half- Mauritian heritage with soul, r&b, hip-hop, electric, and I'd even say a little folk. If you're fast & lucky you can grab 1 of the 8 remaining 12".

Also if you have some time extra time on your hands you should check out this little series here. Good Stuff!

Mike Gao

Mike Gao's Sun Shadows album has been holding me down recently as I work late into the night. Mike Gao has been apart of the Los Angeles beat scene for a minute now and is also the creator of Vocal Beater an iPhone app that allows you to create a beat by beatboxing with your mouth. He's won multiple beat battle titles and has played some of the best venues and music festivals in the world. This is one of my favorites of the moment and the year so far for sure.
