Ta-Ku x Jaden Smith – Beast Mode
Song: Beast Mode Artist: Ta-Ku & Jaden Smith Ta-ku and Jaden Smith are not two names I would expect to see together, but both their names are indeed on the project “Beast Mode”. I have not been a fan of Jaden Smith’s work up until this point, but the verses he spits on this 8 minute track (or continuous multi-track?) are really …

Cavalier – I’m So Bossy
Song: I’m So Bossy Artist: Cavalier This hypnotic instrumental remix of Pusha T‘s “Numbers On The Boards” pulls the most recognizable elements from the original beat (produced by Don Cannon, Kanye West and 88-Keys) and slows them down to a ghostly creep. It’s every bit as unsettling as the original, but the new trance inducing pace dives even deeper into …
Djemba Djemba – Samurai (ft. King Henry)
Song: Samurai (ft. King Henry) Artist: Djemba Djemba “Samurai” was one of 17 tracks found in Djemba Djemba’s SoundCloud set “If You’re Listening To This It’s Leftover Beats.” But don’t make the mistake of seeing “leftover” and assuming sub par content. On the leftover spectrum, this track (and really all 17 of the beats) are Thanksgiving leftovers. The King Henry …

George Maple – Talk Talk (Ta-ku Remix)
Song: Talk Talk (Ta-ku Remix) Artist: George Maple Ta-ku blesses us with another remix, this time in the form of fellow Aussie George Maple’s “Talk Talk.” He slows things down on this one, playing with the pitch and even singing a verse of his own. The result is a haunting track with shuffling drums that immediately had me hitting repeat. …
