[MP3] VIRGO – Tides of Neptune
Good one to end the night on. Described by her PR team as being “RIYL Mr. Little Jeans, Cryil Hahn, Banks, Grimes, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Active Child, iamamiwhoami, and James Blake…” Hope that helps you decide if you should press play!
[MP3] Ryan Hemsworth – Weird Life (Druid Cloak Remix)
How this dude did not make the Polaris Long List is a travesty. Then again, I did not end up voting for him despite giving it some serious consideration so who am I to complain?? That being said, I will say he did kill it at Adelaide Hall during NXNE last weekend.
[MP3] The Weeknd – Often
You know what? The Weeknd did such a good job of creating mystery around himself when he first came out in an age of social media and the ‘share everything’ mindset that it actually shocked the sh-t out of me when he came out to present an award at the MMVAs recently. I was like, “Huh?? What??!?” Anyway….
[MP3] GQ – Count’em Up Feat. Nipsey Hussle & Rapper Big Pooh
Not really up on this cat, GQ but his collaborators on this solid track are a surprising combination, left coast street & blog favorite, Nipsey Hussle and Rapper Big Pooh from mid-aughts, 90s backpack revivalists, Little Brother. Does it work for you guys though?
[MP3] Diplo – Revolution (Danny Diggz Remix) Feat. Faustix & Imanos And Kai
Probably what you’ll hear this summer at Mad Decent Block Party by that Random White Dude, ‘Blondre 3000’ bka Diplo (slick, clever album artwork idea, BTW….)
