Quince Jone - Mind Fuck!


I first stumbled upon the Los Angeles producer/DJ Quince Jone back in mid-2012 and was immediately digging this dude's style. After a few months of chatting back and forth, discussing his upcoming EP/mixtape, it's finally here in the form of an eponymous 7-track free release. I highly suggest you check out the whole thing, but do not miss the opportunity to hear what is perhaps the lead single, "Mind Fuck!" It's heavily synthesized, a bit majestic, and all around lovely. Stream and download it below, and stay tuned for more from Quince Jone in the following weeks.

Rekstarr - Let It Be (Stream + Download)


Rekstarr started out as a hip-hop producer. He used to bump burnt CDs full of his beats on those endless days waiting at the bus stop, shop class, mackin’ (and failing) some dime ass bitches in between classes, etc... Being raised on that real hip hop -- Dilated Peoples, DJ Premier, etc. -- Rek’s instrumentals had that raw New York flavor everyone loves.

While he still produces that raw hip hop shit, Rek’s influences and surroundings have made him venture musically. His cycle is now complete. Rekstarr has the ability to sound great in whatever genre he touches. “It’s not even about the genre, I never want to feel restricted. It’s about sitting down and making whatever the hell you like and feel like making at the time,” he says. And a few years ago, he ventured into house.

I was tired of getting fucked over by the industry. I just wanted to share my music with those out there who appreciate great music and reach out for their love. What better way to do that than with a free album?Revolved is all original beats using just Beatles samples. The album is a journey, from the introduction to the very end. Take one track out and it’s like taking out a scene from a blockbuster. Don’t be afraid to press play and just late it take you. Revolved is one hell of an album. Jam out and show some respect to my boy.



Download Revolver through DatPiff here. And be sure to stop by Rek's Facebook for more.

Add-2 Save.Our.Souls [New Music]

Chicago native MCAdd- 2 reconnects with LRG to releases his latest mixtape (closer to street album than mixtape) Save.Our.Souls.  With production by 9th Wonder Kryhsis and usually contributes like Antman Wonder, IlL MeeL and Ken B you can expect the soul meter to be pretty high. Add-2's lyrics are razor sharp giving you great metaphors and witty punchlines for 20 tracks of Hip Hop gold that ends with a well deserved big up from Common to lead into the Ghetto Dreams freestyle. Listen to a track down below and pick up the new tape here and also check out Add-2's other releases here.

Alchemist - Covert Coup [Instrumental LP]


The Alchemist has always been one of my favorite beatsmiths cooking up dope tracks since the 90s and providing the world with pure Hip-Hop classics with the a wide range of artist from Dilated Peoples to Mobb Deep to Jadakiss. Covert Coup is a mixtape that Alchemist did with Curren$y around this time last year that you can still download for free but the instrumentals where just released on Alchemist bandcamp for all us beat aficionados. You can stream the instrumentals free or grab a copy for $4.20 here. I recommend getting the free download and purchasing  the instrumental for those hot box freestyle sessions that rejuvenate you and your friends creative juices.

Brodinski, Pipes & Louisahhh - Bromance x Coachella [DJ Mix]


Brodinski [Bromance Records] : Facebook | Twitter | Soundcloud


Having experienced an amazing set by Brodinski at Dance Right @ La Cita a couple weeks ago I was left wanting more four on the floor. The dance floor was filled to near capacity. It's attendees jacked their bodies under the reflective low level ceiling. Hands were in the air and the people were happily hounding each time their favorite techno track was sound slammed. Sweaty bodies bounced back and forth to their own beat of the drum. There was no lifted stage w/ a huge LED display. There were no lazers shooting kriss kross that made your eyes jump jump. The closest thing to a go-go dancer were the pretty females salsa dancing on the semi elevated side stage. It was a proper sweaty grimey dancey chicago and/or detroit dance floor. We submitted our selves to the music and you will do the same...

SBTRKT - Marry Anne Hobbs XFM [Mix]


Such an amazing mix by SBTRKT. As some of our regular more frequent supporters of Dank Radio know, we've been fans of his music for quite some time, and have had the pleasure of seeing him spin at last years Coachella. He was the first person that I've ever seen incorporate a James Blake tune into a live dance setting. [No he didn't play CMYK. He playing something else.] Any hoo. A man with no boundaries that keeps pushing the limits with groove and performance, this mix for the lovely Mary Anne Hobbs does not disappoint. [Favorite tracks: Little Dragon - Crystalfilm | Gold Panda - Marriage | Disclosure - Just Your Type]

Kaskade - BBC Radio One Essential Mix


Kaskade : Official | Facebook | Twitter | Soundcloud

It was only a matter of time until Kaskade presented us with his very own BBC Radio One Essential Mix [AIRED SEPTEMBER 9, 2011]. Till this day I still have his Coachella 2010 Mix in regular rotation. Having experienced that set first hand gives that mix a very special place in my collection. Now that I'm listening to his current Essential Mix I know for sure this too will leave a permanent mark on music memory bank. To take things up a notch Ryan has even uploaded it onto his Soundcloud for complete unaltered listening. Enjoy!

Constructing Lightning In A Bottle 2011 [Trailer + Set Times]


Lightning In a Bottle [Do Lab]: Official | Facebook | Twitter | Buy Tickets

As the week slowly progresses into the weekend I'm slowly and surely growing more and more excited to experience my first Lightning In A Bottle. It seems like each day I'm learning more about this amazing festival experience. A few days ago a video/article/interview was shared online that really puts everything into perspective. We get to hear from the people who labor year round to provide this unique experience to everyone who attends. From the amazing artists we're looking forward to covering, to the depth of workshops available, and the plethora of artists participating, I'm honestly not sure how me and [e]ccentric will cover it all, but we shall try. Many thanks to Steven @ The Confluence Group for reaching out to us and inviting us to this new experience. In addition to the "Constructing Lightning In a Bottle" video you can find the set times for the artists performing on the stages as well as the winner of the LIB Mixtape Contest below. We'll be sharing more treats as the week progresses so be sure to check back. If not, we'll see you this weekend!

Manni Dee [Feature Interview + Exclusive Mix]


Manni Dee: Official | Soundcloud

Some people will tell you, "The Internet is over saturated with music." They'll also say "Most of the music online is crap." They might even go into a rant about the good 'ol days or ask you if you've ever been to a record store before. My response is, "Yes I've been to a record store. A mom & pop record store in fact. Actually, we have a great local mom & pop record store here in Long Beach called Fingerprints. You should go check it out and say, 'Hey Rand! Nice store you got here.'" [He's the owner.] What was my point again for this introduction?...[thinking. coffee is kicking in]

Oh! As many of the older guard of music enthusiasts will credit their local record store for their initiation and education on the vast limitless volumes of music ever known to human kind. I on the other hand have Napster+Illegal Sharing Networks+Internet to thank for exposing me to music. Que in our friend Manni Dee from across the Atlantic who's been busy crafting and performing his wonky futuristic beat bass music. He contacted us through Soundcloud and sent us some tracks. We liked it so we played it. We liked it so much we wanted to help him out and do more for him so here we are with the interview below. He's a cool dude. I'm going to buy him a pint when we hang...

Tommie Sunshine - Spring Sprung DJ Mix


Tommie Sunshine : Facebook | Twitter | Soundcloud

Apologies for the lack of updates everyone. March Madness really kicked my a$$. I really need three of me to get everything done. Any hoo, enough of my complaining. Back to the music. Here's a mix that's going to help me get through tonight's "burning the midnight oil" session. Lots of gems in this mix. Here's what Sir Tommie Sunshine had to say about his latest mix:
Since the radio is full of mainstream dance music right now, I decided to pull things WAY underground for this mix. The world is operating at a fever-pitch and this is the soundtrack of you closing your eyes on a Saturday night and cutting the cords that hold you to this Earth. This is straight up, psychedelic dance music that is intended to cause a state of disconnection with the real world and its made with ultimate love. Do whatever it is that takes you to that place and turn this the fuck up and play it LOUD!
