[MP3] The Names Are Known – Known P.S.A. (prod. by Fresh Kils)

From the press release:

To celebrate 11 years of sharing great music & culture and doing things a little differently than the average music site, long-running music blog, DIFFERENT KITCHEN has announced the forthcoming release of a compilation album titled, THIS ONE GOES TO ELEVEN… (the title a tongue-in-cheek homage to the movie, Spinal Tap) to mark the milestone of their 11th anniversary.

THIS ONE GOES TO ELEVEN… will feature 11 brand new, unreleased tracks by some favorite artists who have been featured on and supported by DIFFERENT KITCHEN over the past eleven years plus two extra cuts which have seen only limited previous release. The release date for the album is 8.11.14.

The first single from the album is “Known P.S.A.” by Toronto’s The Names Are Known, a duo comprised of NaNa, not only an MC but one of Toronto’s top club DJs, and I.JAMES.JONES, featuring a banger of a track produced by Fresh Kils.

[MP3] Art Of Fresh – Waiting

New music from old Kitchen favorites, D.O. Gibson and Slakah The Beatchild better known together as ‘club-hop’ duo, Art of Fresh. Always been a fan of AoF whose music have been criminally overlooked IMHO. But maybe now that discofied sounds from the likes of Pharrell and Chromeo are in vogue right now, their time has come?? Track, produced by Tone Mason and Slakah, from the forthcoming album, Good Morning Yesterday.

[Music Video + MP3] Rich Kidd – The Valley

This came out a while ago (March ’14!) but I just caught wind of it the other night. Track’s from the In My Opinion mixtape album that came out last year. Shout to the start of the video being shot literally across the street from my apt. in front of Gangster Burger and Cosmos Records. It’s all goes a bit Stanley Kubrick from there on out though, just watch….
