Giraffage Joins Fool’s Gold

Posted on Jun 3rd, 2014

San Francisco producer Charlie Yin has made quite a name for himself turning bedroom beats into dance floor staples as Giraffage. His beloved R&B remixes and vibe-laden solo tracks have won early praise from Pitchfork, The Fader, XLR8R and other tastemakers, all while he seals the deal live with lush, bass-driven performances at Low End Theory, Boiler Room and gigs around the globe.

Giraffage is poised for even bigger things with an expansive new EP out later this year on Fool’s Gold, and he’ll be showcasing these brand-new tracks and more on Porter Robinson’s “Worlds” tour of North America, kicking off August 28th in Vancouver and stretching through October 18th in Miami (dates after the jump). For a taste of what’s in store, check out Giraffage’s ecstatic rework of R. Kelly’s classic summer jam “Ignition (Remix),” as premiered on This Song Is Sick.

A-Trak + Milo & Otis "Out The Speakers" Feat. Rich Kidz

Posted on May 13th, 2014

When DJ superhero A-Trak joins forces with vanguard production duo Milo & Otis, lock up your stereo equipment…NO BASS IS SAFE. Their irresistibly anthemic collaboration “Out The Speakers” (Just premiered on Esquire) is the first official team-up from these two festival forces (following M&O’s beloved remix with Skrillex and Kill The Noise of Trizzy’s Duck Sauce single “NRG”). They slow down the BPMs to make a speaker-bursting, apartment-evicting monster constructed from screwed rap vocals from ATL’s Rich Kidz, twerked out drums, and what is perhaps mankind’s first recorded “burp drop.” Tweeters beware! Pre-order Out The Speakers on iTunes now, and listen to the stream below.

We’ve also got sick new A-Trak merch in the FG store, including a Zombie Metal cut-off tee and an A-Trak x Pixote long sleeve tee.

DaVinci & Sweet Valley "Ghetto Cuisine" Out 4/10 For Free Download

Posted on Apr 9th, 2014

Ghetto Cuisine is a potent strain of hybrid California bass from DaVinci and Sweet Valley (aka Joel and Nathan Williams). Fans of both artists’ past work might find the pairing unlikely at first, but these low end theorists are true kindred spirits. On Ghetto Cuisine, the SV bros take their melted-Nintendo-cartridge aesthetic in awesomely dark new directions, setting a black-lit stage for DaVinci’s sharpest street narratives yet, and the end result is twelve THC-fueled trunk rattlers featuring guest appearances from 100s and Main Attrakionz. Pitchfork just spilled the beans on the project and debuted a stream of new track “Got That Line.” The whole tape drops tomorrow at foolsgoldrecs.com/ghettocuisine, grab a fork and get busy.
