Groundislava’s “Dazed” Mix

Groundislava’s “Dazed” Mix

Jacked from Dazed Magazine. Everybody knows I rep the We Did It Crew all day every day and I’m not going to stop any time soon. More info and what not below.

Cali artist Groundislava tends to explore squiffy electronic ambience in his own tracks, collaborating with similarly-inclined local artists such as Baths and Rare Times. Yet judging by this mix, his extra-curricular listening is a little more hyphy. He pumps up Katy Perry’s “Firework” with a 90s rave flex, takes a breather with Röyksopp and Lykke Li and a deep cut from ATB’s 1999 trance album Movin’ Melodies (remember “9 PM (Till I Come)”?). To quote one of the mix’s looped lyrics, it booms even brighter than the moon.

Tracklist:
Groundislava – “Untitled”
Jake Weary – “The Bridge” (Groundislava Remix)
ATB – “My Dream”
Rank 1 – “Airwave” (Rank 1 vs Dutch Force Remix)
Katy Perry – “Firework” (Groundislava Remix)
Röyksopp – “Miss It So Much” (feat Lykke Li)
Rufus – “Desert Night” (Groundislava Remix)
Ono_Sendai – “God Hand”
Squarepusher – “Tommib”
David Sylvian – “Forbidden Colours”

Vic Mensa – Wimme Nah (Prod. By Kaytranada)

Vic Mensa – Wimme Nah (Prod. By Kaytranada)

Vice Mensa has been carving out his own lane in the hip hop game every since the Chicago MC started making noise with the likes of Chance The Rapper and some of the other dope MCs coming out of the Chi. To be honest, I enjoy Vic’s flow and voice much more than Chance who can sometimes sound like a cartoon character which just gets fucking old when you ar trying to chill. This is probably the best shit I’ve heard from Vic yet and this beat by Kaytranada is just straight fuego.

Arcade Fire – Afterlife (Flume Remix)

Arcade Fire – Afterlife (Flume Remix)

I personally don’t really give a fuck about Arcade Fire anymore. Probably because it was my x-girlfriends favorite band and anything that reminds me of her just leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Regardless of all that, I am still a MASSIVE Flume fan and even though he seems to be slowly moving towards more mainstream friendly tracks, this is still pretty fresh.

Kepler Gold – Breezin’ ft. (prod. haich)

Kepler Gold – Breezin’ ft. (prod. haich)

UK MC Kepler Gold dropped this little didy yesterday and it definitely grabbed my attention. I’m a huge fan of tracks with real lyrics that you can actually understand which are normally 2 things that you don’t get when you try to listen to a lot of UK hip hop. However, Province has some kill and I think I’ll be keeping an ear on him now. More below.

 

Produced by haich [@haichsounds], ‘Breezin’ ft. Kepler Gold [@akay-a] is the first single from Province’s debut EP.

The track is part of a wider project called ‘The Province EP’, a five track collection produced by Haich, which features a selection of artists from across the UK [including Kepler Gold, Luui, Nelson & more]. The EP will be accompanied by a piece of bespoke visual art in the form of a model city, created for Province by Sunderland artist Jasmine Anderson. A glimpse of this can be seen in the single artwork for ‘Breezin” [above].
