[MP3 + Music Video] Harrison – Akira

Saw this kid, Harrison last night down at the Field Trip Discovery showcase at The Drake Underground. 18 years old and from right here in Toronto, his beats are sick! He had an amazingly beautiful and diverse crowd dancing non-stop to his edits and new, mostly instrumental tracks incorporating 80s R&B and boogie, electronic, nu-house & disco, funk and anything else that gets people moving. Kid is the truth, belee’dat! Amazing video (above) for his “Akira” track (from the When It’s Bright EP) too.

[MP3] GoldLink – Sober Thoughts

Smooth as butta track produced by Kaytranada.

[MP3] Lorde – Royals (DJ Mensa Dougie Edit)

I don’t like to post a lot of mash-ups on the site but this one by local Toronto DJ & Producer, DJ Mensa, while pretty simple, is also pretty effective.

[Event] Field Trip Presents: Discovery Series II feat. Brendan Philip, KJ + Harrison

This FREE show is going down at the Drake Hotel tomorrow (May 15) featuring Kitchen favorites, electronic soul ‘slop wave’ singer, Brendan Philip and alternative hip-hop MC & producer, KJ.

[MP3] OB O’Brien – 2 On / Thotful feat. Drake & Hazelton Trump

Two new tracks from Drake/OVO affiliate, OB O’Brien. Would this be buzzing if he wasn’t that though, I wonder?
