DJ Rashad – I Don’t Give A Fuck

Jun 19, 5:46am Abeano Music

The info on this video says it was uploaded TWO MONTHS ago, which we're a bit like 'what?' about cuz we would have know that f'sho, but no matter, it's here now, and so is a new EP from Rashad of the same name, out next month (22 July). We managed to get an advanced copy of it and it's as good as you'd expect, even with some comedy in too, (world's best cry juke edit? Best belee' dat): DJ Rashad - I Don't Give a Fuck from Ashes57 on [...]

Machinedrum recently announced the quite exciting news of his new LP, Vapor City. To go along with this, he released new track Eyesdontlie, a vocal-sample-centric tune filled with big pads, cutting snares and a pretty, Lone-ish breakdown in the middle:

MIA – Bring The Noize

Jun 17, 3:29pm Abeano Music

MIA has returned once again, in a maelstrom of Yeezus and RAM and such, to deliver the new-new. The track, which sounds like a Switch beat, has MIA bringing through all the noises, fierce delivery and a strobe light instrumental:

Jamie Isaac – Softly Draining Seas – Premiere

Jun 17, 11:30am Abeano Music

You'll probably hear people talk about 18 year-old Jamie Isaac's affiliation with fellow London-based, youngman vocalist King Krule, but if that's the fare you're expecting then prepare to be pleasantly surprised. Isaac's woozily solemn vocal, like how your voice is after hours of crying, go hand-in-hand with the big, reverbed grand piano chords and rustling percussion. The video has him wandering around all sorts of terrains; buildings, trees, rivers - the lot:

Mala – Noches Suenos (Mala & Simbad Super Dub) – Premiere

Jun 17, 9:46am Abeano Music

Mala In Cuba was one of our favourite records of last year. A sweet blend of local Cuban music and Mala's transcendental skill for basslines made for a surprisingly engaging LP. Noches Suenos was the calm, smooth final track on the record, with Danay Suarez on the vocals, and has been given a formidably bassy Caribbean redux by the two. This is a sundown roof party special:

Sound Pellegrino are releasing their first ever label compilation, featuring tunes from Matthias Zimmerman, Modeselektor and much more. They also got this fantastic remix of Todd Edwards and Surkin's emotional mover I Want You Back by French genius Canblaster.

AlunaGeorge – You Know You Like It (Video)

Jun 14, 6:15am Abeano Music

AlunaGeorge recently announced their debut album, Body Music (and was accidentally called 'Body Talks' in the press release, which is funny cuz I could totally see it being called that as well), and on it will be this little mover and shaker. The video for You Know You Like It sees the duo in a big empty pool with a bunch of trendy types having a likkle dance:

Dornik – Something About You

Jun 13, 7:36am Abeano Music

PMR's latest wunderkind Dornik is bringing the heat with this new track, Something About You. The London singer plays drums in Jessie Ware's live band, and there's something distinctly Michael Jackson-esque about him. Nice pads n stabs, too:

Childhood – Solemn Skies

Jun 12, 10:31am Abeano Music

Childhood stay reminding us of what it was like to be a child: blinkered happiness, endless sunshine-filled days (apart from wet-play, am I right?! Means something a bit different now). Their new video/ song is blushing with good feeling, airy and breezy, but with substance:

Danny Brown – Numbers On The Boards Freestyle

Jun 12, 6:06am Abeano Music

D-Breezy met up with everyone's favourite mad uncle Tim Westwood recently for a lil freestyle session and a smoke. Part of Westwood's Crib Sessions, Danny rapped over the knock-kneed Pusha-T beat for Numbers On The Boards and talked a lot about his scrotum/ penis:

Redinho – Stinger

Jun 11, 12:55pm Abeano Music

Big-ass news today: Numbers' top-boy Redinho has some new music out there, the first for a couple years now, and it's giving us a 'stauner' as our Glaswegian friends would say. It's called Stinger and it's beautifully epic, spreading out with a heavily '80s theme, big chords, film score drums - it'll make you think you're watching the T-1000 give you a thumbs up as he lowers himself into a pit of molten metal:

Breach – Jack (Mak & Pasteman Remix) – Exclusive

Jun 11, 5:50am Abeano Music

Breach's Jack either is or will be that tune played by everyone at electronic-friendly festivals and events this Summer. Catchy refrain, rattling bassline, swine-flu-catchy drums, it's got all the ingredients. Mak & Pasteman's remix is just as much of a sweaty fist-thrower, too, keeping the vocal in tact and building something else around it:

The xx – Fiction (Video)

Jun 7, 5:32am Abeano Music

After blazing through Europa with their Night + Day events, which will see them play alongside Solange, Mount Kimbie, Polica and more on 22 June at Hatfield House, The xx have a new video out, this time for the contemplative Fiction. It sees vocalist Oliver wandering around a villa and then a mediterranean hill scape, which we're sure would look magical if it was in colour. Colour? xx? Nah mate:

Glass Animals – Black Mambo

Jun 6, 8:57am Abeano Music

We're glad to see that Glass Animals are making a splash (and not a crash! LOL!). We enjoyed the last single Cocoa Hooves, and are also enjoying new single Black Mambo and its accompanying video. With a wet, Alice-In-Wonderland melody and a slithering video, it's a creepy little banger:

Icona Pop – I Love It (Jakwob Remix) – Exclusive

Jun 5, 5:43am Abeano Music

While we're not really too hot on the original track, bit summer-time-advert-for-Chessin gton-World-Of-Adventures for us, we think this Jakwob refix shows it in a different light, so well done him for that! It takes the vocal line and jams it in some piercing piano and lurching basslines. Robotised house percussions and more after the jump:

Sasha Go Hard – Rondo

Jun 4, 9:43am Abeano Music

Sasha Go Hard continues to be the most exciting addition to the rap game for a piece with her apocalyptic new track Rondo. The video has her stomping around in decrepit, concrete wastelands while the orchestral beat bangs and her unique voice and flow glides over it. Fuckin' serious business:
