![[remix!] Dominant Legs – Make Time for the Boy (Main Attrakionz remix)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4271428_lg.jpg)
I have been wondering a lot lately: What was my iTunes like before I knew about Main Attrakionz ? I mean... I was pretty late in the game, when I found out about Oakland's self-proclaimed " Best Duo Ever ", but I am so thankful that I am no longer in the dark. Main has been on a constant tear, releasing music at a prolific rate. Yesterday was Squadda B 's birthday and proclaimed #GreenDay . And once again, they got up off some new jawns and officially announced signing to [...]

Il y a presque un an, nous découvrions l'album Digital Lows du groupe américain Cities Aviv . Aujourd'hui les membres déchaînés du groupe nous présente leur tout nouveau morceau intitulé Normal Immortal que l'on pourrait qualifier de savant mélange entre du punk électrique et du rap bluffant. Le titre est en téléchargement gratuit, alors profitez en ! Télécharger fichier audio (Cities-Aviv-Normal-Immortal.m p3) > Cities Aviv - Normal Immortal

There's cloud rap, and then there's this shit. The new cut from Memphis MC, Cities Aviv , is a far hazier experience than we've come to expect, (even by his standards), but it's a welcome experiment and an exciting point to what could be a more experimental sonic direction.
Have you hopped on the Cities Aviv bandwagon yet? Well, "Normal Immortal" should do the trick if you haven't already. Your speakers might hate you after listening to his latest single, but you are going to be loving every second of this two-minute banger. Seriously, this shit is loud. Like really loud.

The last few times we heard from Cities Aviv , it seemed as if he had created a signature sound for himself—one that was spaced-out, psychedelic, and abstractly lo-fi. His latest release, however, suggests an effort on his behalf to step outside of his comfort zone, as "Normal Immortal" is still abstract but a little more aggressive. Give "Normal Immortal" a listen below. Cities Aviv - "Normal Immortal" ( Stereogum )

En multiples ocasiones les he llegado a mencionar que hasta hace dos años no estaba tan interesado en cuanto a lo que esta sucediendo dentro de los terrenos del hip hop ya que la mayoria de las cosas que estaban en constante rotacion eran bastante malitas pero con el paso del tiempo mientras me fui adentrando un poco mas en todo este rico mundo musical ie fui encontrando con cosas bastante interesantes dentro de este genero mas alla del super hypeado crew de OFWGKTA . Proyectos como Death Grips y Cities Aviv han sido algunos pequeños ejemplos [...]

Last year, the Memphis indie-rapper Cities Aviv broke out with Digital Lows , a plainspoken, psychedelic online album. Today, we've got a new track from him called "Normal Immortal," and it's a pretty significant departure, a brief and furious punk-rap track that verges on Death Grips levels of bellowy bile. Download it below. Read More...

It was only a few hours ago I was leaving the office listening to Cities Aviv's debut Mixtape, ' Digital Lows '. When I got home his new track, ' Flex your gold ', was sitting in my inbox. That's what you get for rinsing records. The follow up to his self-released single, ' Wet Dream ', is a remarkably lo-fi endeavor. Reverberating moans and rattling beats form the bulk of the sonic sphere, with Aviv 's vocals near but consumed [...]

The last we heard of Cities Aviv was " Wet Dream ," which sounds exactly like the title implies. This time around, though, the title of his new track isn't necessarily representative of its sound. "Flex Your Gold" doesn't have that flashy, gold chains and grills sound, but it stays true to his usual abstractly psychedelic lo-fi sound. So mellow out, take off all your gold, and check it out below.

Memphis chillwave rapper Cities Aviv has uploaded a new single, "Flex Your Gold", to his Bandcamp . The track features some chopped and screwed synth-pop, complete with a woozy funk groove, the clatter of a drum machine, and Aviv's staticky street slang. Stream it below. Aviv's latest album, Digital Lows , is out now via Fat Sandwich.
After a weekend of beer festivals and Super Bowl celebrations, I need some laid back hip-hop to help me unwind. Luckily, Cities Aviv floated in with the woozy new single, "Flex Your Gold". It is amazing how this guy continues to progress his sound-there aren't too many artists that are dipping into the hip-hop and indie worlds as well as Cities Aviv is. I am not sure when we will see a new full-length from this promising artist, but all signs are positive thus far. Hit the skip to stream the single.

It's just one of those weeks where the hip-hop songs I've missed out on over the course of the entire year all end up in my lap and I think, "Sound on the Sound just needs a little more rap to grace its pages." Cities Aviv is another Pitchfork 100 Tracks of the Year find [...]
