Future Classic: Teebs “Anchor Steam”
(Almost) brand new heat from up and coming producer yet another dope Los Angeles producer TEEBS. Ok i’m a little late to talk about this one because this is 6/10 of the Los Angeles series put together by the awesome ALL CITY label. Previous editions of the L.A featured Dam-Funk, …
Future Classic: SBTRKT “Step in the shadows EP”

Future Classic: Gangrene (Oh No + The Alchemist) “Take Drugs”
I had kinda read somewhere that this was a project to keep an eye on. Gangrene is the name of a new collaboration between Oh No (Madlib’s younger brother) and producer extraordinaire The Alchemist. Well, judging from the first single and video, i’m gonna like this… a lot…

Dela is a dope beatmaker from France but also one of our favorite Montrealers! He took on the daunting task of remixing the Gary Bartz classic that inspired me for the name of the site. If you didn’t know the original version go check it out for yourself. Big thanks …
