Future Classic: Shlohmo “Bad Vibes” LP
While the rest of the world was waiting for that certain “Watch The Throne” release aka # WTT on twitter, I was, as a “beats” fan waiting for Shlohmo‘s LP. I can’t ignore the fact that he’s an awesome producer and his remix of Waka Flocka is pretty insane as …
Future Classic: Outboxx “Blueberry Lemon EP”

Future Classic: Pangaea “Hex”
Just a couple of days ago I was sharing the new Breton EP with the Girl Unit remix as a “Future Classic” selection and now yet again more fire from the same label, Helmlock out of London. This time it’s an absolute burner from the man who calls himself Pangaea. …
