Our man ELOQ just dropped a big pack of goodies for freee. Lots of exciting new material in there, among a few choice soundcloud heaters. I might also mention it features a collabo with our own Julius Sylvest, aaand, it was mastered by Dixone fam.
TONIGHT @ PUBLIC ASSEMBLY — 70 N 6th, Brooklyn, NY
Houston.Atlanta.Memphis (H.A.M): Presents Memphis In Brooklyn Part II. We welcome “Crunk Revivalist/Crunk Furturist” GIRL UNIT and the Queen of Memphis La Chat.
Zhala is, and has been for some time, one of the greatest lurking talents in Sweden, which is saying plenty, given how fraught with musical genius that country is. I was lucky enough to share a stage with her and Shamoun (an equally exciting character) at the Gagnef/Skankaloss festival a few summers ago, and they put on a very impressive show. It was no east act to follow, no way. Fast forward a few years, and here she is again, better than ever, and seemingly ready to take over.
NYC’s gift to the children of clubland. THE CARRY NATION “This Bitch Is Alive” ft. VIVA RUIZ is out now on Batty Bass. Remixes from Bubba, Gavin Russom, Sveta & Tokoloshe, & Johnny Dynell. Feel HUH—Ooh QURN!?
Palms Out fam Udachi just put out a really great EP on AC Slater’s Party Like Us imprint. Every track is just meticulously executed, and more importantly, the whole thing is ENGAGING! Which I don’t say lightly. I mean, it’s really original without being super weird and out-there; it just makes me want to keep listening. Udachi is an extremely talented producer, whose output just gets better and better.
Its obvious that 2 Chainz (formerly Tity Boi of Playaz Circle) is absolutely everywhere with everyone at the moment. With his kooky flow he’s definitely one of the hottest rappers in the game currently. So I figured I’d share some of the freshness from this week with ya’ll.
Along with the announcement that August 14th will be the release date for his debut solo album, 2 Chainz just dropped another video from his scorching T.R.U. Realigion mixtape, featuring Philly’s finest Meek Mill.
DJ Paul (of 36 Mafia) has unleashed a remix of latest single “Cocky” featuring 2 Chainz on a guest verse. Look for this joint to be apart of DJ Paul’s For I Have Sinned mixtape, which will hit streets on 4/19. The lyrics on this one are some of the finer literary statements I’ve heard this year.
And to wrap it up, my man Tony Goods just let loose a bootleg club remix of Nicki Minaj’s latest “Beez In The Trap” which, of course, features 2 Chainz. When it hits 1000 plays he’s gonna give ya a free download.
One of the two tracks I produced for Le1f’s #DARKYORK mixtape/LP, “Mind Body” just premiered on pitchfork and fader. I wanted to share it with you all as well.
Watch out for #DARKYORK out 4/15 on Greedhead (Hima Das Racist’s label) in collaboration with our new sister label, headed up by Le1f himself, Camp & Street. Until then, follow us on soundcloud.
Our dear fam Marcus Price just dropped a crazy lovely EP for our friends over at Discobelle. The strength of the title track alone is enough to grab this release, but the b-sides and the Richelle remix make it just plain necessary. Stream the whole thing below, then buy it!
Fresh off a stint at the Red Bull Music Academy, Palms Out’s very own Julius Sylvest faces off with Canblaster to create a song that’s french romance meets tribal guarachero bit tune.

Right from the jump I have to say sorry for sleeping on Zebra Katz. I was sent some dope material, got selfish, kept to myself and did not share it with you good people. Moving on, Welcome to Dark Disco.
We invite you there to complete the circle of experience – to get a taste of this one, specially curated moment. Dark Disco combines it all.
With lineups that are surprising, insightful, and always on the absolute tip of the edge featuring DJ’s, Producers, and artists who are true creators and who’s only goal is to keep the dancefloor live. The environment is an ever changing inspiration of visual artists who’s installations fill the void of your mind with something new to deconstruct and experience.
Past Dark Disco’s have featured such great talent as: Boys Noize, A-Trak, Diplo, Mary Anne Hobbes, Nosaj Thing, Peaches, the US return of MJ Cole and so many more.
Dark Disco is the adventure of MeanRed Co-Owners Jen Lyon & Katie Longmyer. Two agitators and instigators who delight in creating and causing a stir and a discussion and who ultimately, just want to have a good time.
This Dark Disco, we are proud to bring KINGDOM back to NYC.
Alongside him will be DJs MESS KID (Palms Out), hometown hero KAVIAR DISCO, and Palms Out fam, DOYO aka RubenXYZ, who happens to be the director of the stellar Zebra Katz video, as well.
