Happy Friday!
It’s a beautiful thing when a song maneuvers from one genre to another, weaving together a completely unique tapestry. One could say that the concept of “genre” has become almost irrelevant in a modern music landscape because of the ability to borrow from so many influences, and it is usually the genre-bending artists that go on to influence the next wave of sub-genres and trends. This week’s top track, “Kick It”, from Flavours (off of Westwood Recordings) borrows from all over the map, using soulful instrumentation over a chunky mid-tempo groove and a hip hop beat to create one funky tune. This single is a taste of what’s to come as the Canadian producer finishes recording his next EP.
Also in this week’s list you’ll hear some heavy electro house courtesy of Kannibalen’s Black Tiger Sex Machine, Panther, and SUB-Human, some freestyle hiphop from Mayhem and Kevin Flum released only 12 hours after the initial session, and much more.
