I was recently put on to a collective producers from Adelaide, Australia called Joint Ventures who are cranking out chill instrumental music that’s right up my alley. Their latest release is “roast2roast” – a damn near perfect reworking of Harvey Sutherland and Bermuda’s “Coast 2 Coast” by an artist named mrs. baker. Dusty samples are wrapped in waves of warm, …
COMODO – Time Out
It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything from UK producer COMODO, so it’s nice to get a new song – even though it may have been created a while back. “Time Out” is a silky smooth instrumental that features a shuffling beat, dreamy soundscapes, and the perfect amount of complimentary acoustic guitar. Once the groove gets going, it’s incredibly …
Sam Gellaitry – Acres
Words simply won’t do this one justice, so I’ll just say that Sam Gellaitry has outdone himself with “Acres”. It’s part of his incredible (and brand new) 5 song EP, Escapism III, which you can stream and/or purchase on the platform of your choice.
Late June – Sleep Well
If you’re looking for a song to help you unwind your way into the weekend, look no farther than Late June‘s latest track, “Sleep Well”. The Aukland-based producer does what he does best, delivering a beautifully chill tune that’ll have you feeling lighter than air. Head over to his Soundcloud for more, and stream “Sleep Well” below.
ozone – you & i.
Riding on waves of beautifully lush pads and samples, producer ozone deploys crisp trap percussion to create a beat that’ll have you pleasantly sedated mere moments after hitting play. ozone is no stranger when it comes to incorporating rap vocals into his tracks, and “you & i.” delivers on this front as well — taking a surprise turn around the …
Kodyak – somewhere\\\between
Team Sesh affiliated producer kodyak excels at creating dreamy, atmospheric instrumentals, and after a brief hiatus, his new song “somewhere\\\between” picks things up right where they left off. Throughout the duration of the song, kodyak flawlessly blends electronic elements and percussion into beautifully textured soundscapes that are guaranteed to leave a lasting impression. Check out more from kodyak on Soundcloud …
skinnydip – Eleven
Inspired by Stranger Things’ most memorable character, producer skinnydip has crafted a quietly powerful beat titled “Eleven”. Layers of electric guitar create a woozy and laid back vibe, while assertive percussion drives the track forward. It’s only two minutes long, but I feel like I could listen to this on repeat for hours. Check out more of skinnydip’s work on …
Autograf – Nobody Knows (ft. WYNNE)
Dark, soulful, and subdued, Autograf‘s new song deviates far from the groups usual dance-ready sound. They’ve shown their versatility before, but “Nobody Knows” introduces a brand new side of Autograf and I’m loving it. The prominent vocals of singer WYNNE are anchored by haunting piano melodies and restrained percussion, with unconventional electronic sections materializing at the perfect times. I’d consider …
Juan RIOS – Pool
The first time I heard Juan RIOS‘ music was only a few days ago (around the time I wrote about his song “Cosmos”), but I’m already hooked… So here’s his new track “Pool”! I love the Freddie Gibbs sample that opens things up, and the hard hitting beat and delicate instrumentation that follows is absolutely flawless. Stream it below.
Toonorth – Whiskey and Coke
When it comes to dusty, laid back beats, Toonorth is easily one of my favorites. His excellent Anemoia EP came out last year via BLVNT RECORDS and he’s been rather quiet since… until now. “Whiskey and Coke” is everything I love about this guy’s sound. It’s fuzzy and hypnotic, with plenty of fine details that make for a rewarding listen …
