Caught a listen to this one through a twitter post from Diplo. It's some killer production from Joelito, check out Mad Decent's write up on the producer below... via Mad Decent: "Malmo based producer Joelito produces a wide variety of music but still manages to put his own stamp on everything he touches. There is no better example of this than with his song "Sickhead". It's roots are in the Mexican 3ball sound but the use of the horns on this track, flips it on it's head. The remixes from Flore, Boyfriend and Copia Doble Systema [...]

Sortie fin janvier, la mixtape « Transformers N The Hood » est immanquable.

Thinking I had some homework to do before 5PM today I wandered into the library only to figure out it's not due until sunday. But since I'm here I've decided to shell out a couple of jams I've gathered this week as well as the highly anticipated mixtape from Mad Decent featuring Diplo, FKi, Heroes x [...]

An extension of Diplo's label Mad Decent , Jeffree's is a virtual imprint on the prowl for the best "subterranean" underground producers. The label's latest offering is Zebra Katz , the persona of Ojay Morgan, a multimedia/performance artist whose debut release is titled Ima Read . The EP features Njena Reddd Foxxx and consists of the songs "Ima Read", "Hey Ladies", and four remixes of the title track by Slick Shoota, DJ Sliink, J-Wow, and MikeQ & B. Ames. Because the musical production on "Ima Read" is deliberately sparse, beatmakers can [...]

Re-fashioning a classic diss from the ball culture/ vogue scene into a super-catchy, super-menacing hook threat as a spooky, minimalist thump spends a tense four minutes sounding like it's about to explode into something big at any second, "Ima Read", from underground act Zebra Katz (a project born from the mind of performance artist Ojay Morgan and brought forth from Mad Decent's tastemaking imprint Jeffree's ), emerges as the future-sensation club tune to beat in the forthcoming Spring Break Jam Sweepstakes. The track, reminiscent of both Azealia Banks current, superstar-making blog-smashes and [...]
The Mad Decent general provides us with the latest installment in his Blow Your Head series with Sirius/XM radio. Because Diplo is a DJ/artist/producer that is rarely known for disappointing, it's no surprise that this mix in particular is of epic proportions! Face it, we all love the random mesh of tracks that Diplo utilizes [...]

Zebra katz - Ima Read from Mad Decent on Vimeo . The universe is trying to tell me something. Earlier today bnease and bauce were talking about an online book club, which led me to make the above suggestion. Later in the day I noticed Azealia Banks tweeting "IMA READ IMA READ IMA READ" but I assumed she was making up her own lyrics to that Black Eyed Peas song...boy was I wrong. Well, [...]

mp3: Zebra Katz :: Ima Read (feat. Njena Reddd Foxxx)

I gotta say, this past weekend has rocked my head pretty good, plus I may have adapted an intolerance to lactose or gluten (stomach has been killin me since Wednesday). Thankfully I got the hook up via DeadJournalist in the form of this track by Lushlife. A perfect example of the new synth-infused, cognitvely clever, flow-strong, electronic indie hip-hop; Producer/Lyricist Lushlife weaves a nasty rap thread with "She's a Buddhist, I'm a Cubist" (not to mention a dope title). These two tracks are certainly not club bangers, but perfect examples of stimulating, passionate hip-hop. Side note: Lushlife's new [...]

Wake up bugs! Rusko may have kept us waiting since the release of O.M.G.! almost two years ago, but he's starting the year off right with a new album and a pre-release tour in North America. This much anticipated album, titled Songs, will be delivered by Mad Decent & Downtown Recordings on March 27th in the States and a day earlier in the UK. Until it drops, Rusko is building up some serious hype with a brand-spanking-new video for his single "Somebody To Love", which you can purchase on January 24th. Seeing what O.M.G.! did for his [...]
