[Album Stream] Matthew Chaim – Homemade (EP)

New EP from Montreal artist, Matthew Chaim. The Homemade EP is super, super dope, think Kid Cudi meets Roy Woods (or Frank Ocean) for a rough idea of what this sounds like. Here’s Matthew on the EP:

Homemade is about growing up. Actually, it’s about growing up slowly and that being perfectly okay. It’s taken me time to realize – and not just realizing it mentally, but understanding it deep in my bones – that growth is a lifelong process. I am 28 years old now, but in a lot of ways I still feel like that kid on the EP cover. If one thing is taken away from these songs, let it be that your particular process of becoming who you are is completely and utterly yours. Nobody else’s. The best version of you, just like the best food, is always homemade.

You can also check out the EP on TIDAL, Spotify and Apple Music.

[MP3 + Music Video] MorMor – Waiting on the Warmth

Great new single by buzzy new Toronto singer, MorMor giving me vague Kid Cudi vibes in part. I think this kid could go! Agree??

Track from his EP, Heaven’s Only Wishful dropping next week (June 22).

[MP3] HONORS – On Again (Best Night Ever Remix)

This is a nice one:

Toronto alt-r&b collective HONORS have revealed an official remix of their Molly Kate Kestner assisted single, “On Again”. Courtesy of Best Night Ever, it finds the producer taking the track to stunning new heights with support from the likes of MrSuicideSheep.

HONORS are also prepared to unveil a new release. Led by an equal parts sleek, sultry, and ultimately infectious single called “X2UO”, it also comes equipped with a thunderous b-side cut called “Control”. The two tracks offer a glimpse at what’s to come on HONORS’ forthcoming debut EP which is slated to drop this fall, not to mention what they’ll bring to the live circuit as they head out on the road in support of NoMBe.

Hit the jump for the original verison of “On Again” too…

[MP3] MITYRION – OTHER SiDE of LiFE

This is an interesting one: an alternative/hip-hop (as opposed to an alternative hip-hop, big difference!) track sampling Nirvana‘s “Heart Shaped Box.” Peep the artist, MITYRION speaking on her own music:

I am an Alternative musician in Houston, TX & I’ve been playing for over 7 years now but I recently grew popular for mixing Grunge and basic Hip Hop with my latest single “OTHER SiDE of LiFE.” My music is derived from Nirvana, PVRIS, Coldplay, Gorillaz and Paramore and I am currently going on tour in the summer (June – September).

[MP3] L’artiste & Luka Milo – Broke Myself

We try to show case new talent when we can and this is about as fresh as we can get. This kid is the friend of the son of a good friend of ours from time: only 15 years old! Now admittedly there’s a lot of this moody ‘Toronto sound’ type stuff out there right now, but the execution and songwriting here, while raw in parts, is more than solid. Agree??
