French electro house artist Kavinsky (also known as Vincent Belorgey) has released his track "Roadgame" from the Drive soundtrack. The track has only available on the DVD/blueray French edition, but we are lucky enough to have it in our hands now. The track is stellar mix of string instruments and electronic undertones. It has a very 80's movie soundtrack feel alongside a vibe similar to one heard in Daft Punk 's music. Sidenote: Kavinsky has toured alongside Daft Punk, The Rapture , Justice , and SebastiAn . The label working with Kavinsky is [...]

Hi-Rez has made a great name for himself across the east coast and now that he's headlining shows expect his star to rise even higher. Here's his latest efforts with the help of rapper Kyle B . to add a bit of flow. Great production from Zero Gravity as well, definitely worth your download.

Toronto's dapper house connoisseur Meech tailored the next piece to his catalogue earlier in the week, squaring up a new EP for Copenhagen's vogue record label Demento Mori. Springing off his collaborative Discobelle release with fellow odd ball Meati , Meech takes the stage solo for the first time to flaunt his blend of classic house influences laid on top of latin tech house grooves. I Want features the same tongue-in-cheek attitude from his past works, with no demeanor to sound outlandishly grave but to playfully command the dance floor in an effortless manner. Forget about pushy leads and dominating bass lines, let strings [...]
Matan Zohar, code name Mat Zo , had his first track signed at the age of 16. Born in 1990, he's even younger than I am, and he's already made himself into a household name. While his association with Above & Beyond 's Anjunabeats label means he's most frequently associated with trance and progressive sounds, and he certainly does dabble in this realm, Zohar knows how to blend genres, and his music ranges from subtle, smooth tracks to fist-pumping party jams. You can stream the full Bipolar EP, due out on Anjunabeats on February 13 [...]
Her first name means "to have faith in a higher power even though he's not right in front of you" in Arabic while her last name is Abyssinian for "he made the call to prayer and he had the most beautiful voice." Ihsan Bilal 's name is fitting, given her strength as a multi-talented vocalist and classically trained instrumentalist. A meld of Beyonce 's smoldering pop-rock anthems with the funk force of a younger, female Bootsy Collins , Bilal makes her music her own with textured rhythms and soulful vocals. From California to Turkey to the East Coast, [...]
![Vulkan the Krusader - The Rare Era [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4051632_lg.jpg)
I'm so late on this, but I liked it and no one posted about it an thus I feel the need to post about it now. Vulkan the Krusader is an artist out of New York City sponsored by 10.Deep and making recent waves since the ASAP crew started enjoying their fame. A long time affiliate of ASAP Rocky , Vulkan has taken to his own delivery of bars in almost a Rick Ross -esque fashion. Production by Star Slinger caps this off as what I feel is one of the most underrated songs [...]
Originally a sadistic song, Toronto's electro hip hop producers have generated a party anthem from The Weeknd 's "Next". The exclusive remix we are kindly presenting is from Keys N Krates . Not only is there an expert behind the drum pad, Key N Krates have fabricated an energetic rush of digital vigilance and a triumphant bass. Their decorations have an electrifying pull to even the non electro heads,myself included. The trio in Keys N Krates are notorious for their innovative mixing of live instruments. Attached below is a video of live footage from their last [...]
![Action Bronson x Riff Raff - "Bird on aWire" [VIDEO]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4051252_lg.jpg)
Wow! There's a lot going on with this collaboration, track, and video. It's almost a little bit too much to take in all in one viewing. On the one hand you have Action Bronson , one of the most recent hip-hop saviors to enter the game. And on the other hand you have Riff Raff who is pretty much a reality star turned rapper which immediately puts on you on defense. So, right off the bat you create instant assumptions and that's before you even see what Riff Raff looks like in this video. That's definitely going to [...]

I'm usually not one to pay much heed to underexposed indie artists who only have one track on Soundcloud, but with Dana Buoy I'll make an exception. There's not a whole lot out there on this kid right now -- all we know is that he lives in New York, calls his music "Tropicore" and has 60 fans on Facebook. His debut single "Call To Be' was posted on Soundcloud a few hours ago, and his debut album Summer Bodes is set to release on April 12. He's going to be at SXSW, but besides that [...]
![Chiddy Bang - "By Your Side" [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4050291_lg.jpg)
Chiddy and Xaphoon Jones make up the tag team that is, Chiddy Bang. With only a couple weeks until their freshman studio album drops, they released a video for a track that won't appear on Breakfast which is due February 21st. The visuals for "By Your Side" is strictly for the fans, to hold us off until the album drops. Chiddy is one of the hottest artists out right now, giving Breakfast a ton of well deserved hype, and with Xaphoon on the beat, this album surely wont disappoint. "By Your [...]
On February 7th, Kanine Records blessed the release of Royal Baths ' Better Luck Next Life . Royal Baths are a psychedelic rock formation of Jeremy Cox and Jigmae Baer . They began this band in San Francisco but their musical journey led them to Brooklyn. In New York, Royal Baths like to support all the DIY venues and Death By Audio was where they chose to have their record release party. That same night, Jeremy Cox sat on the curb with me to discuss the album, his [...]
Looks like we got some more new music from the Odd Future camp, this time by Domo Genesis who enlisted the Taylor Gang general Wiz Khalifa . Some had the idea there was beef between Odd Future & Wiz, after wiz announced the title of his major label debut album, Rolling Papers . Which Domo had already released as a mixtape with the same title, some negative words were exchange at the time. But looks like they got passed that and made some good music together. Check It Out And Enjoy. Follow me @ Ebonicss [...]
![Phonte - "The Good Fight" [VIDEO]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049917_lg.jpg)
Phonte is one of those MC's you have no choice but to love just because he exudes charisma and he has all the elements that make an enjoyable artist. He spits hot lines, has a great sense of humor, and attracts equally talented musicians to work with him. So, it was no wonder that when he dropped his 2011 album, Charity Starts At home, that it would be one of those instant classics. Especially when you consider 9th Wonde r's involvement. And now Phonte has just dropped a video for the track "Good Fight" which speaks on the daily [...]

We have a new cut by the Pittsburgh representative Wiz Khalifa , that came from the Stash House 12 mixtape presented by The Syndicate and DJ Spinatik. The record sounds unfinished but still shows that the young Wiz has bars for days. We are going to have to wait and see if this is old news or to be featured on a forthcoming project. Wiz sophomore studio album is expected to release later this year. Check It Out And Enjoy. Follow me @ Ebonicss Download: [...]
Nashville's Wick-It The Instigator released his mashed rendition of Dr. Dre 's "Still D.R.E" and 2Pac 's "California Love" yesterday, and we had to share it. Wick-It has proven himself as an innovative producer throughout the past few years (since 2004, specifically), providing the music scene with stellar mash-ups and remixes. Wick-it's roots stem from hip-hop and turntablism, but recently electronic music has become more prevalent in the tracks he's released. Each track he has released provides the listener with a different feel, but the bottom-line vibe in each track is light-hearted and fun. Wick-it is clearly all about the [...]
