[MP3] King Reign – Dear God

Now this is f-cking cool! T.dot MC, King Reign, author of one of my favorite tracks of all time, “Guilty Party” (which I blogged waaaay back in the day) is back with a new joint that reinterprets UK new wave/post-punk outfit, XTC‘s “Dear God” for the beat on his song of the same title. Nice! Thanks to the homie, Click for the heads up in this one….

[MP3] CHVRCHES – The Mother We Share (Moon Boots Remix)

Full disclosure, new buzzy producer, Moon Boots is managed by my homegirl who sits across from me in the office I work at but I’ll tell you what: I’d have posted this even if that wasn’t the case, anyway. Track is fire. Ya dig? Hit the jump for Moon Boots’ own track, “Love Strong.”

[MP3] The Slakadeliqs – 2nd Most

Long time readers are probably aware that I was a MAJOR fan of The Slakadeliqs’ The Other Side of Tomorrow album. So you know I was beyond psyched (pun kind of intended as you will see….) when I spotted this new track on RDIO. Clearly Slakah is exploring the sixties aspects of the ‘deliqs’ gumbo stew sound on this Beatles-esque, psychedelic slow burner, presumably a taster from their next album [correction: according to his soundcloud page this is a “Bonus Track to U.K. release of Slakah the Beatchild’s Psychedelic Soul project “The Slakadeliqs”. Check the video HERE“]. Nice….
