Flying Lotus took to his soundcloud on Tuesday to share three previously unheard tracks from the You’re Dead (2014) LP sessions. Our favorite from the lot is the CMBR sounds of the Thundercat featuring “NO Feeer”. Thank u FlyLo.
The SBTRKT man is back. Following up his first track in two years (the Dream collaboration “Good Morning”) which first emerged online only on Tuesday, SBTRKT hits the gas once more with new stream “I Feel Your Pain”. The track, which features world’s greatest backronym D(oes) R(eal) A(ss) M(usic) and exciting newcomer and daughter of Neneh Cherry Mabel, strides a cool line of inventive arranging with an undeniable pop sense and quality. Welcome back, SBTRKT.
The great Roche Musique will release a new collaborative EP between Parisian artists Duñe & Crayon on March 25th. The vibes down D’Angelo-esque “Blue Window” is the EP’s first listen and it is a flawless bit of infinitely soulful nighttime R&B. Listen.
The B3 Recs alums Marian Hill return today with a spare and cool piano-driven new track in the person of “Down”. A smart minimal piano figure is track’s main engine providing a slick jazz-tinged frame for Sam Gongol’s lilting alto. Welcome back MH.
We’re into the atmospheric R&B of “Solo Ride”, new from Norwegian-born singer Farida. The subtly quieting “Solo Ride” is a component part of Farida’s forthcoming 25th Hour mixtape which is due for an April release.
Gallant announces today debut album Ology out April 6 on Mind of a Genius and to accompany the news has revealed excellent new track “Bourbon”. A mid-tempo burner locked-tight to a circadian groove “Bourbon” is dimensionally a further step forward in the Gallant aesthetic and another top-caliber in the burgeoning new star’s track discography.
B3SCI Records is very pleased to announce “Gold Chain”, the new EP from Detroit duo Gosh Pith. Out now on malachite-mint green vinyl , the four-track EP’s tracks have been lauded by PAPER, Stereogum, and Dummy who highlighted the “multi-genre appreciation” in the title track noting, “signifiers of hip-hop, electronica, and rock all encompassed in their sound”. The “Gold Chain” EP is available now at our B3SCI Records store.
Whoa whoa whoa. “West”, the new track from artist/producer Tommy Paxton-Beesley aka River Tiber is PHENOMENAL!!! Modern R&B, indie R&B, neo-neo-soul, alt-R&B, whatever “West” is melodically one of the strongest songs of the year. A must listen.
A cousin melodically to Leon Bridges and vocally to Anthony Hamilton the anonymous Seramic channels some of the run of soul music history’s apex moments on “People Say”. Built on an almost cosmic choral base instrumentally, “People Say” is so uplifting it’s heart wrenching to listen to. It’s one of the best tracks of the year so far.
