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!

Proper Villains & Nasty Nigel “Vacation”

Posted on Sep 30th, 2020

Proper Villains (the bass master dropping chunky tracks on Classic / Defected, Southern Fried and Psycho Disco) and Nasty Nigel (the multitasking Queens MC, DJ and producer bouncing between grimy World’s Fair raps and epic jungle sets on The Lot Radio) team up in the spirit of chatterbox club jams from Green Velvet and Sagat for “Vacation,” a brain melting body mover. Or is it more of a body melting brain mover? Whatever part of your physical gets scrambled, PV and NN’s hypnotic and memorable collab is must-have, mixed up house music for our manic times.

The Brothers Macklovitch “I Can Call You”

Posted on Sep 24th, 2020

When A-Trak and Dave 1 of Chromeo teamed up as The Brothers Macklovitch, they set out to channel the sounds of their formative years: countless hours spent digging for records and falling in love with music as funk-hungry Montreal teens. The follow up to their debut single “Give Love To Get Some” (and its Waajeed and Morgan Geist remixes) is “I Can Call You” a cover of a little known 1995 gem by the R&B group Portrait, sped up and jazzed up like it came straight from their parents’ basement: with Dave on vocals Trizzy on the cuts.

Vincent The Owl & Nick Catchdubs “Pour Decisions” Video

Posted on Sep 16th, 2020

Vincent The Owl bugs out and bars out over Nick Catchdubs production in the “Pour Decisions” video, filmed on a mic-mounted GoPro in and around VTO’s Jersey City studio. The warped, lo-fi paint drip vibe of “Pour Decisions” is a perfect pairing with Vincent and Nick’s collab EP of the same name, featuring five tracks of delinquent Garden State raps atop spastic, subterranean tracks.

DJ Swisha “Nothing But Net” EP

Posted on Sep 9th, 2020

Born in Philadelphia, raised in LA and currently based in Brooklyn, club vanguard DJ Swisha is making some of the most exciting and vital dance music today. Hailed by the Washington Post as a leader in “a new generation of black artists reclaiming the roots of techno music,” the producer and DJ is a constant presence in underground speakers, whether tearing up warehouses with his Juke Bounce Werk crew or dropping legendary Boiler Room streams stuffed with Jersey Club classics, futuristic house and his own hybrid originals. DJ Swisha’s debut Fool’s Gold EP Nothing But Net shoots even higher as the purest distillation of his polyglot, polyrhythmic ethos to date: five dancefloor-first tracks including the relentless thump of “Methods” and “Fake Molly,” the hypnotic loops of the title track and “Reconstructed Club,” and even a vocal assist from fellow Philly icon Bahamadia on drum machine workout “Crypto.” Listen now!

Morgan Geist is a New York / New Jersey dance legend bringing inventive energy to classic disco and electro sounds with his experimental solo LPs, hit duo Storm Queen and the massively influential Metro Area (aka what Resident Advisor calls “some of the most celebrated dance music of the past decade.”) He continues to remake dance music in his own image while stretching The Brothers Macklovitch’s “Give Love To Get Some” into fantastically dubby shapes, stuffed with wonky sax riffs and loop d’loops like none other.

Vincent The Owl & Nick Catchdubs “Pour Decisions” EP

Posted on Jun 25th, 2020

DJ/producer and Fool’s Gold’s co-founder Nick Catchdubs discovered Jersey City MC Vincent, The Owl online and immediately reached out, recognizing a kindred spirit and fellow Jersey-born enthusiast of all things bugged out. Early this year, the duo created a batch of tracks that would form Pour Decisions, planning to drop it as a brown-bagged collection of warm-weather jams. It’s a different kind of summer for sure, but this head-nodding EP of oddball beats and hilariously profane lyrics stays frosty at all times. Listen now!
