[MP3] Zeds Dead – Back Home Feat. Freddie Gibbs

Whoa, new track by Toronto’s Zeds Dead featuring Gary, IN’s finest (now that the King is gone, that is), Freddie Gibbs. This one, from their forthcoming album due late this year via their new Deadbeats label, is kinda fiya!

For you industry types, Zeds will be doing parties at SXSW featuring Just Blaze and more, March 16 at Kingdom, and in Miami featuring Destructo and more, March 17 at the Gale for Miami Music Week. Meanwhile Gibbs heads out on tour in Australia, the US and Europe (or Belgium so far, at least) starting March 10. See the dates HERE.

[MP3] #TBT: diplo – Diplo Rhythm Feat. Vybz Cartel, Pantera Os Danadinhos & Sandra Melody

Throwback to this record ‘cos I was listening to Sleeping Bag Records Greatest Rap Hits last night featuring Mantronix because… well, if you really know your hip-hop, you know….

[MP3] James Blake – Modern Soul

The clanging Chinese street band-style percussion aside which I found a little distracting, this is a crackin’ ass song, no doubt! Looking forward to hearing the full Radio Silence album (if it’s still called that??) when it eventually gets scheduled for release.

[MP3] Amtrac – Darkest Sound

Kick the weekend off starting right vibes!

[MP3] Major Lazer – Wave Feat. Kali Uchis

This dubby, downtempo Major Lazer track is fantastic! Evidence that these dudes can probably make great records for a long, long time to come. Don’t sleep on this. Just hit play….

Bonus:
Hit the jump for another joint from Major Lazer featuring Ty Dolla $ign, Wizkid, & Kranium. Yeah, you’re probably gonna want to hit play on that one too!
