Paper Diamond plugs into a new reality on Holograms, his long-awaited full-length on Fool’s Gold. From heavy-duty bass weapons to melodic, futuristic pop and everything in between, the Cali-via-Colorado beat champion takes his signature sound to an energetic new level on tracks like “Work 9000,” “Downfalls” feat Polina and “Bass Real Big” feat Ms Williams. Turn it up!
Boston’s Michael Christmas joins the FG family with his new album Role Model. It’s emotional, witty and real: a point of view with a sound all its own, thanks to MC’s hand-picked production from underground favorites (Meltycannon, Thelonious Martin, Durkin) and his inspired, melodic flow. Guest verses from Cousin Stizz, G Perico, Domo Genesis and Tobi Lou add spice to the project, but it’s clear from the intro that Role Model is a one man show like none other. Listen now.
Nick Catchdubs continues his singles series with the uptempo tweaker “All Night.” Featuring megaphone vocals from The Rapture OG Mattie Safer, crazy distorted 808s, and loads of cowbell (why not?!?), it’s another welcome New York beat freakout from Catchdini. Following the DJ-approved “UFO Style” and it’s heavy-duty Masayoshi Iimori remix, “All Night” is an electronic broadcast unlike anything else out there… keep watching the skies for more. Turn it up!

Get your groove on!

Having teased fans with several singles over the past few months, including his latest “AH AH” featuring Smokepurpp and Teddy, producer-to-watch Andrew Luce has unveiled his debut multi-track project, LANTERNS.
