Future Classic: Chilly Gonzales “Something About Us” (Daft Punk Cover)
Chilly Gonzales is a bath robed pianist, a prodigious rapper, a world record holder (for playing a concert which lasted 26 consecutive hours), and a self proclaimed musical genius. His life is an expensive movie (he’s backlit) and after countless sequels, he’s still the opposite of peaceful (the opposite of …
Future Classic: Rochelle Jordan “Pressure”
Canadian singer Rochelle Jordan has released her second free digital album Pressure in August 2012, produced entirely by in-house producer KLSH. This is something all fans of R&B need to experience. The chemistry between these two is a match made in music heaven. I was listening to it last night …
Future Classic: Bennetrhodes “Tenderness”
I came across Kan Sano’s album Fantastic Farewell in 2011 and have been a fan of his ever since. I was so enthused by his music that I actually sent him an email to tell him so (my level of enthusiasm was matched in his reply). What I appreciate most about Kan …

Future Classic: Dntl “My Orphaned Son” (Die Vögel Remix)
Initially coming across this release because of the Herbert remix it contains, I was happily surprised by the flip. One of those times a curious couple clicks pays off, ending in you sitting on two hot tunes instead of one. B-Side surprise is where it’s at! This one comes from …
Future Classic: José James “No Beginning No End”
I’ve been on the Jose James bandwagon since day 1 so let’s just say I am a bit biased when it comes to talking about one of his new releases. Ever since I bought the white label copy of “Equinox” vinyl in a London record shop in 2006, I have …
Future Classic: Jaw Jam “The Truth”
With a catalog of about 15 tracks released in 2012, Jaw Jam proves to be one of the most prominent artists of the new generation of producers. Will DiMaggio, his real name, was first noticed by LFTF with whom the 19 year old beatmaker released his first ‘Untitled’ EP about …
