Day 341: New Bassnectar Mixtape (Audio)

Ohh yea, I'm awake now. This Bassnectar mixtape tho.... nasty. I'm sure ya'll will get lit up when you listen to it too.

Day 340: On My Radar - Denetia and Sene (A Brooklyn Duo)

Heard this track a few months ago on a DJ mix, but couldn't find out who the artists were until now. Now that I know who Denitia and Sene are, I will be following them very closely. Such great production on the track with the horns in the background, up-beat drums, and smooth vocals.

A bit of background on them (quoted from their website here):

"Brooklyn-based musicians came together a year ago with a shared vision to bring truth and ingenuity to stylistic music, and they’ve held their ambitions high ever since. Simple. Rare. Sumptuous. Bold. They’ve been influenced by a range of sonic proclivities. Thus, their work is distinguished not by genre, but attention to free verse, and the magic that transpires between darkness and light. It’s film noir for audiophiles – chic, hip and alluring – and together, they have broken down personal limits to forge a bond surpassing all expectations."

I hope they can travel to LA sometime so I can check them out live, otherwise I'll need to plan a trip to NYC soon.

Day 339: The Weeknd with "Kissland" (Album Stream)

Just started listening to The Weeknd's new album, and I'm getting hooked. I also saw him live in LA at the Greek Theater tonight so I thought it'd be a good time to post it up.

Check the "Kissland" album stream after the jump.
