Summertime Sadness - A-1

I would now like to introduce you to A-1, a fantastic new comer out of the Bay Area. Summertime Sadness is a unbelievably sharp perspective on the violence that often comes hand-in-hand with summertime. He takes the already heavy Ryan Hemsworth remix of Lana Del Ray, and adds a whole new layer to it. This is an absolutely haunting track that you need to check out.

Hands In The Air - Inside Our Universe

It's been almost a year since I've posted anything from I.O.U, but these two guys have definitely been on their grind over that time. Hands In The Air uses a fantastic sample of Rihanna's Stay, and it's probably actually one of the better tracks that I think I've heard from I.O.U. Enjoy this one.

Big Ships - e-dubble

Happy First Friday! The last month has been a long one, filled with papers, assignments, and finals, and now that it's finally over, I can just sit back, relax, and jam to some new e-dubble. This is probably one of my favorites that e-dub has put together over the last few months, which is really saying something, because he's been fantastic over that time. Check it out below.
