MNDR & Sweet Valley “Dance 4 A Dollar” EP

Posted on Feb 24th, 2015

Sweet Valley is Nathan Williams (Wavves) and his brother Kynan, two bongwater-soaked beat geniuses making rap instrumentals that feel like melted PlayStation games. MNDR is a one-of-a-kind artist and songwriter versed in Britney and breakcore in equal measure. Put them all together with producer Peter Wade and Dance 4 A Dollar is the result, a darkly catchy Cali masterpiece. SV chop up strip club 808s and woozy synths like they’re reclaiming trip hop for the DJ Mustard era, while MNDR explores the underbelly of radio songcraft, finding the creepiness inside champagne anthems and and coating tales of teenage nihilists with Rihanna-worthy ear candy. Decay never sounded so sweet… get it now on iTunes!

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 fgrecs.wpenginepowered.com/ghettocuisine, grab a fork and get busy.

Sweet Valley "Jenova"

Posted on Jan 3rd, 2013

The brothers of Sweet Valley fall even deeper down the beat rabbit hole on Jenova, their follow-up to Stay Calm and Eternal Champ. The duo’s beautifully dusted music takes a darker direction on Jenova, but their knack for untamed, unexpected textures (guitar feedback, girl group harmonies, trap hi-hats, Rambo noises) and ADD spirit keep the Sweet Valley vibes as lively as ever. Trip out to this…
