Pretty Lights – You get high

Pretty Lights latest offering is the real deal, as always, i honestly believe that this is what modern present day music should sound like, at least production wise – we can debate about arrangements and use of vocals and other personal preferences. PL has so far never disappointed, everythings dead on point and this tune is no different. Do yourself a favour and sign up for their newsletter, you get all the material that PL puts out for free, they (as the label) or he as PL simply don’t believe in music being sold anymore – yes the times they are a changing and everybody opposing that should get with the program and update their chronometer to at least 2005 and clean their reality goggles. Enjoy this tune and if you haven’t got a hold of their old material or are unfamiliar with them, at least in europe the names not that much household outside the deep rooted scenes, go over to their website and keep yourself busy for a few hours with all of PLs LPs, EPs, Remixes and single Tunes. Great music to match PLs great chnronistic attitude. Pure Zeitgeist

Bass ill Euro “Alemanbahton EP” on Sol Selectas

Our peoples, partners, chromemusic authors and YUM YUM co-djs Schowi & Passion are Bass ill Euro, and this is their brandnew EP “Alemanbahton”. I guess the reference is understandable to everyone, and you may recognize most of the tracks from all of our dj sets. DJ Sabos label packed these 4 df friendly tunes into a nifty EP and is set to release it in June. If you are somewhat a music nerd or have spent some 90ies dollars on records you probably will recognize 2 out of 4 samples. If you are a proper nerd i guess your eyes will light up for all 4 samples used :) Check the EP preview below and make sure to see them play live, next time at Fernweh & Malaria in Munich, Friday June 1st.

Kids These Days – Hard Times EP

Chosen by Complex Mag (anybody still reading that?) as one of the Top Twenty Bands to look out for and praised by fans and critics alike for creating an own genre or at least the first good jazz/funk/hip hop band in ages – this 7 piece band from Chicago released a 7 piece EP last year, that went by mostly unnoticed. Out of several k’s of possible facebook connections with my accounts only 2 people i know liked them, hmmm? They definitely deserve better.

>>> Hug them here >>> Get them here >>> ps my fave track of the Ep is a track called “Summerscent” (of course that was my choice) which is somehow very reminiscent of the early hip hop / acid jazz collabos of the early 90ies in NY and London and it reminds me of a certain sound Pharcyde were known for, before music history tied them down to 3 of their hits. Feel good and proper music by this fresh new band.
