Introducing: LE1F

Introducing: LE1F In a recent music video by producer and rapper LE1F (watch below) the camera pans from a larger-than-life ice cream sundae to what could be the crooning lovers of LE1F and his beau, behind them a kaleidoscope of candy-colored Gotham City lights. Singing from a high-rise apartment in Manhattan, the two could be at a birthday party at Def Jam studios or perhaps just broke in to celebrate by themselves, leaving mixtapes as evidence.

Lincolnup – Subsubtropical 2

Lincolnup – Subsubtropical 2 Since being in San Francisco I've watched my native Pacific Northwest begin to flourish as place for forward-thinking dance music. Just recently Nguzunguzu duo graced stages in both Seattle and Portland, and New Years will see a visit from uk producer and co-owner of the Hessle Audio label Ramadanman . These two artists are among 20102s best new producers, each with their own take on what it means to be related to genres like house, uk garage, or r&b. As much as these artists deserve our brightest accolades, so too do the promoters [...]

Richie Balboa and Will Streetwise Promo Mix After 3 years of performing together in clubs from from Beijing to Miami, Streetwise and Richie Balboa finally decided to put together a DJ mix for public consumption.

Streetwise's background has taken him on a tour of almost every dynamic in the music and he now finds himself at the forefront of the Ghetto Funk scene through his website www.ghettofunk.co.uk.

The Phantom – Night Game (Zeppy Zep Remix)

The Phantom – Night Game (Zeppy Zep Remix) Two summers ago we debuted Bartosz Kruczynski a.k.a. The Phantom 's swirling, xylophone-tinged "Cambodia," a track that eventually saw release on a Top Billin' compilation of UK Funky that attempted to capitalize on the nascent genre. The compilation was OK, but Kruczynski's participation was the highlight, and now after over a year of negotiating a proper debut EP, Senseless Records will finally do his music justice. My favorite aspect to The Phantom's productions is that he gives melody the utmost of attention. From "Cambodia" to his EP's two tracks "Girl" and "Night Game," [...]

Renegade – Threshold (Fog’s Viva Redux)

Renegade – Threshold (Fog’s Viva Redux) Fog's back with a wickedly fresh remix of Renegade's Threshold. This one's a fair bit quicker than Renegade's original, but sticks close to it's original vibe - adding a cheeky vocal sample from one of Barack Obama's speeches.

TM Exclusive – Jamie Grind

TM Exclusive – Jamie Grind I haven't been sure how to usher in fall here at Trash, but fortunately the transition landed in my inbox in a rather timely and unexpected manner, such as seasons often do. Earlier this summer we shined some light on rapidly ascending Leeds producer Jamie Grind , whose Sonic Router mix came shortly after his first release, an auspicious split EP with producer Gon on the well-executed Infrasonics label. In addition to his own production work Jamie plays host to the UK underground at his monthly [...]

Chico Mann – Analog Drift

Chico Mann – Analog Drift I apologize for not connecting with all of you more recently. My life has changed in the last couple weeks, including a move to San Francisco for a hot second before I make my exodus to New York City, and even a new job ! Straight from the man like Nate Mars (producer, PR, taste-maker) comes a project from Chico Mann aka Marcos Garcia, a Cuban-born musician based in New York who has toured with the likes of Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra , plays a multitude of instruments, and makes music that draws [...]

Lamin Fofana – What Elijah Said EP/#Calypso Mix

Lamin Fofana – What Elijah Said EP/#Calypso Mix Google "Lamin Fofana" and you may discover that I've been a Fofana proponent for the last year, giving his "Fatmata Was Here" mixtape the shine back in August of '09. Lamin's mixes have always ranked in my most-played; their disregard for seamlessness and love of space tug at the strings that stretch from head to heart. Mix structures and sonic intersection aside, Lamin's mixes often showcase what an eager and omnivorous music listener he his. From Rap nerdery to ambient aesthetics, to his musical affection for his Sierra Leonian heritage, it's no surprise Lamin is now making music [...]

We need More Tigers

We need More Tigers The best tunes don't need many words. In fact, the best tunes can't really be described. You really need to feel them.

DJ Still Life – Tropicaaliyah

DJ Still Life – Tropicaaliyah Yes, today is the 9 year anniversary of R&B legend Aaliyah 's tragic death. There are a few things floating around offering tribute, but East Village Radio' s DJ Still Life sent this over today and it hits on a variety of levels: summery, silky, sexy, salacious, okay so maybe those are mostly synonyms. Still Life runs one of EVR's best shows "Worldwide Smash," on Friday's from 12AM-2AM EST, much of it covering the low-end vibes dance music vibes bouncing around the globe right now. As the title suggests, Still Life has [...]

113 & Magic System – Un Gaou A Oran (Shaun D Remix)

I mentioned yesterday that many African musical exports are of the glee-full, exuberant kind. Here is one such group. Magic System , like CIAfrica, are from Abidjan, Ivory Coast, except they've amassed millions of record sales and are in FIFA video games. The other half of this song is from Algeria's 113, a crew I've had trouble finding much information on. One video is an Algerian rapper who goes by 113, and for this song it's Bollyhood-style Rai, often called Rai'n'B. I plead ignorance on this front, and will leave you to your own conclusions. [...]

DJ Rupture Presents: CIAfrica

DJ Rupture Presents: CIAfrica What do you think about when you think about Africa? What do you hear when you listen to Africa? And, what does one write about when they write about Africa ? These questions are important questions. Single dimensions are rampant in many visions of Africa, particularly concerning the political and economic instability of many African nations. However, these common struggles don't equate singular cultural expressions, an easy lens to pick up when few alternatives are offered. African musics vary immensely, though what is often brought to the U.S. ear is a window of African music that shines [...]

The Chordettes – Mr Sandman (Mr No Hands Remix)

The Chordettes – Mr Sandman (Mr No Hands Remix) Ahead of his next release on Air Recordings, Mr No Hands has been very busy dragging this bouncy track "Back to the Future" adding more wubs and boom than you can shake a stick at! This is a full time happy breaks tune which has his distinctive handwriting all over it! How he's managed to keep the happy bounce and at the same time had such dirty levels of grime I am unsure. All I can say is that I can't recommend this tune enough... Visit his new podcast page to download it now .

Blaque – 808 (Steel & Solo Remix)

Blaque – 808 (Steel & Solo Remix) Welcome to the end of the week! As a little Twitter-style, Following Friday (#ff) business I thought I'd point people to a blog that I've been feeling by re-posting a recent entry of theirs. Don't be fooled by the title, I Hate World Music , a blog that may be located in Canada (though my lazy research has yet to confirm that fact) doesn't hate World Music. The site's creator reminds their readers that World Music is "a catchall marketing term used for a bin in the record shop signifying stuff that doesn't belong anywhere else in [...]
