The Brothers Macklovitch “I Can Call You (Pal Joey Remix)”

Posted on Nov 12th, 2020

One of a kind New Yawker Pal Joey paved the way for sample-based house music with pioneering late ’80s and early ’90s creations like Soho “Hot Music” and Earth People “Dance,” all while slinging records at Vinylmania in the West Village and producing “Love’s Gonna Get’cha” for Boogie Down Productions. This makes him the perfect OG to enlist for a Fool’s Gold remix, and the beat master doesn’t disappoint, adding his signature loop d’loop touch to The Brothers Macklovitch’s “I Can Call You.” Pal Joey’s doubled up drum breaks (and freestyle vocal interlude!) take A-Trak and Dave 1’s Portrait cover to a dusted dancefloor in an outer borough near you. Listen Now!

Spinna flexes his intergalactic muscles on his “Journey Mix” of The Brothers Macklovitch’s “I Can Call You,” twisting A-Trak and Dave 1 of Chromeo’s ‘90s R&B tribute into a jazzy club workout, complete with one truly epic synth solo!

Smalltown DJs “Good Thang (feat. Bootsy Collins)”

Posted on Oct 15th, 2020

What is funk? It’s not a sound so much as a vibe, somehow timeless and futuristic, classic and innovative. You know it when you hear it because it moves you. Smalltown DJs know, they electrify the funk thru sets at Canadian festivals Shambhala and Bass Coast, and their own legendary Hi-Fi Club in Calgary. Bass icon Bootsy Collins definitely knows, considering he helped invent and represent the funk for decades, from Parliament to “Groove Is In The Heart” to recent collabs with Kali Uchis and Omar Apollo. So when Smalltown and Bootsy join forces on new single “Good Thang,” there’s no question about what you’re getting: one freaked-out, feel-good dance anthem, connecting generations as only Fool’s Gold can. Listen Now!

Palmistry “Post Eternity”

Posted on Oct 15th, 2020

Post Eternity
2016-2020
Our hearts will meet there, in the floating world, dust & dew.

These are the words of Benjy Keating, aka Palmistry, one of electronic music’s most enigmatic and exciting artists. The poetic epitaph serves as an introduction to his new EP Post Eternity: Cult Classics From The Other Side, closing the chapter on one era of creativity (including the acclaimed albums Pagan and Afterlife, alongside collaborations with the likes of Charli XCX, SOPHIE and Major Lazer), and pointing lovingly towards the next one. The seven spectral cuts on Post Eternity serve as Palmistry’s Fool’s Gold debut, in advance of a forthcoming new LP. This release is no mere collection of unreleased tracks, but a showcase for a singular artist working from an intimate, dynamic and experimental plane. Listen Now!

Kandisha & Falcons “RIDE”

Posted on Oct 1st, 2020

Falcons is a visionary producer / DJ crossing genres with the legendary parties Pangea and Athletixx, tracks with the likes of Young Thug, Good Times Ahead and 88rising, and his own anthemic, body-moving originals. His latest single “Ride,” a collaboration with up and coming vocalist Kandisha, is a fiery, deeply personal spin on that signature Falcons sound, inspired by social justice uprisings around the country. To let him tell it: “my friend Kandisha and I went to the first major LA protest in May on bike and we had no idea what was coming… after the first weekend of unrest in Los Angeles, we were inspired to make some fight shit based on the energy and frustration surrounding BLM and the movement for equality in the United States. The song and video were created entirely with the help of our closest homies and family in LA, and that means so much to us.” Listen Now!
