duhKiD’s April 2012 Chart

ftAJM duhKiDs April 2012 Chart

New tunes this month!  Wowowowow.  Fuck the intros, let’s get into it.

Santigold’s newest album is amazing from front to back, but this Diplo produced tune keeps it coming hard. She’s “so damn cold”.

 

If you haven’t heard of Mykki Blanco, he she is a transvestite Harlem based MC that tears up the mic.  Get over your initial shock that she’s completely upsetting the heterosexual hierarchy of Hip Hop, and you’ll see that Blanco’s got too much talent to be overlooked… especially when teaming up with DJ/Producer Brenmar, who absolutely murders it on the beat.  Get Wavvy.

More after the Jump

Homies Leeboy and Marvel the Gr8 just put out a BIG single, titled “Get it”.  Leeboy, formerly the child star on All That, is all grown up, uncensored and always hilarious.  Good vibes on this one all day.  Shout out to J. Hyphen and Random Citizens on the beat.

 

Too much hip hop for you already?  Alright, lets get into it.  A-trak’s remix of Surkin’s “Never Let Go” is massive.  Yet again, Trizzy proves how much of a veteran to the game he is, by giving us something unusual, and breaking expectations of what the “A-trak sound” is.  At the same time, he retains his familiar electropop synth progressions, and hip hop influenced samples.  I can’t wait to hear his new Justice remix (coming out soon).

 

My boys, Ian and Dan, aka gLAdiator, just put out a remix of Butterbox’s “Human” that I’ve been lovin recently.  Moombahton and Hip-Hop fusion is what these boys specialize in, and this track makes that abundantly clear.

 

Sinjin Hawke has recently become one of my favorite producers.  His sound is so unique that I wouldn’t even know how to genre-fy him.  Most would categorize him with names like Flosstradamus, Lunice, or Hudson Mohawke, but even that doesn’t give a full picture of the depth of his sound.  Listen to his “The Lights” EP and you will be ENlightend.

 

The homie Cavalry just turned me on to Modeselektor’s new track, “Berlin”.  Needless to say, I’ve been hooked.  Such good vibes from this German duo.  They never cease to impress.

 

Flux Pavillion just put out a remix EP for his new “DayDreamer” single feat. Example.  Coming in at number one, in my opinion, is Jack Beats.  You can certainly hear the classic Jack Beats sound in the track, but it also has a very different composition than most of their material.  Still, the synth at the drop is something I’ve never heard before.  So crunchy.

 

Lastly, a quick update on my new material since I last posted.  Got 2 free remixes for you.  Both featuring my boy Marvel the Gr8.  I also premiered my debut music video for “Denzel Washington” off #RPC2 last week.

Enjoy.
