Oooweee. Gat damn. This is sexy and swingy and smooth and sexy and… Heat. Cashmere Cat remixes Miguel’s “Do You…” Do You… - Miguel - Cashmere Cat Remix
It hasn't been too long since our last Anatomy Of A Song post, but that one was kind of a special edition because it commemorated the recently deceased George Jones . This time around, we're taking a look at a classic romantic ballad, one that began life in the years following World War II but became the signature song of an R&B singer almost two decades later. The song - "Since I Fell for You" - was written by Buddy Johnson, and was first performed in 1947 with his band backing [...]

New Orleans' August Alsina, a recent signee to The-Dream's Radio Killa imprint whose smarmy delivery reminds me a little of Tim Vocals, has released a new tape of thugged-out r&b, The Product 2. (It follows ... read more
Between her gel-slicked i-D magazine cover photo and the conspicuous flower-genitalia metaphor in her video for "Hide," Twigs' young career has already been full of bold statements. The Arca-produced "How's That," however, feels more like ... read more
Remember the moment in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze when Shredder, previously thought to be dead, punches his hand through the rubble in the NYC trash dump and eight-year-old you was like "OH SHIT SHREDDER IS STILL ALIVE!! AHHH!!" and then your Mom yelled at you for using a bad word? Mariah Carey pulled a Shredder-punches-his-hand-out- of-the-rubble this weekend. We all thought she was gone. But oh good sweet lord, she is back. And what a way to come back! It's almost like she's been waiting on some gold-gilded throne [...]
Here's Mariah Carey's new guitar-laced and hashtagged single, which she debuted this morning on the radio nationwide. Miguel co-stars, and helped write and produce the track. "So blessed to have produced this along w friends. ... read more

Israeli producer Yarin Lidor is back once again with yet another spell-bounding remix! Always a man of the trap, Mr. Lidor has decided to alter Alicia Keys' massive hit "Fallin" this time around! Marked by vocal gymnastics, soothing breakdowns, and enough loops to put Toucan Sam to shame, it's an absolute steal that this track is being given away for free! So I suggest that you hit the download button immediately and rely on this song to jam out to throughout the week! I have completely Fallin in love with this bootleg!

Oh damn! Twigs really is keeping it sexy! This is the newest song to be released since she put out her EP last year and it seems she is continuing in the same vein and I am more than happy to keep right up to date with her. Those soft, subtle vocals with that rolling synth line is just too good. But don't worry you still get that eclectic craziness that we heard from her previous EP when it picks up the pace and suddenly sounds like two robots playing table tennis. The quality of the production has [...]
Here at Upside Sounds, we don't particularly like Chris Brown. Although he is abusrdly talented, he also has the tendency of making absurdly stupid decisions throughout his career. But even with that said, we still can't get enough of Bondax 's latest blend between Shlohmo's track "Places" and his bonafied hit "Yo." Long story short, we may dislike Chris Brown, but we like Shlohmo and Bondax even more. What a great song to listen to on a rainy day, right?

Remember Röyksopp? No? Not even the one with Fever Ray? Well no matter, for although the Norwegian sentimentalists have slipped forever deeper into eternal irrelevance since the trailblazing release of their seminal (yes, that's seminal ) début Melody A.M. , their legacy lives on. For rarely does electronica resonate with such emotive potency, and it's in that same rich vein of feeling that Brooklyn duo Beacon appear to have bathed their mutedly, if only periodically sublime début full-length, The Ways We Separate . It's an album comprising incisive avant-garde cuts (Overseer) and sultry [...]
Adding onto the many musical talents Chicago is offering to the world right now comes singer/songwriter Vince Nantes. Vince’s latest single “Love Jones” is a smooth R&B track produced by the Urban Legendz. It’s definitely a catchy single and absolutely worth listening to. Keep up with @VinceNantes for more music and listen below!
Tuxedofunk put out a 3-track EP about a month ago that we've been jamming to nonstop. At this point very little is know about who they are, but rumor has it the project is a meeting of minds between the smooth crooning Mayer Hawthorne and famed hip-hop producer Jake One . The vocals certainly do sound strikingly similar to (read: exactly like ) the crisp stylings of Hawthorne. One thing we do know for sure is this EP is ridiculously great. All three tracks feature an undeniably smooth mix of Soul, R&B, and Funk, and will be firmly [...]
It's rainy, it's cloudy, it's miserable out, all I wanna do is stay inside and crawl back into bed. It's been some time since our last Chill Mix and figured today was a perfect day for another follow up. In no particular order, here's a collection of low-key electronic tracks spanning the past few months or so that I've been meaning to share with you all. laymedown - Me & You [...]
