Most recent discovery. Another gem from the Stones Throw roster. Very unique and definitely one of my current favourite musicians.
Eskmo
Siblings
This song always takes me back to London when I was in music school. Eskmo really inspired my approach to music making when I was there.
King Krule
Czech One
Everyone knows of my appreciation for him. This one’s from his upcoming LP release. I love everything he’s put out. I still have '6 feet beneath the moon' on my everyday playlist.
Mndsgn
Camelblues
I think I could complete this list with the Stones Throw roster. Mndsgn is another favourite. He’s so fucking cool.
Teebs
While You Dooooo
I was introduced to BRAINFEEDER through his album Collections 01. Another Major influence when I was starting out.
Lapalux
Kelly Brook
Nostalchic is sonically mind blowing. It really got me more into sound design and beat music.
Shlohmo
Places
I consider Shlohmo to be my guru. Bad Vibes changed the game for me.
Timber Timbre
Cedar Shakes
I love the new Timber Timbre but I think their debut album is their best work. This song especially.
Mick Jenkins ft. BADBADNOTGOOD
Drowning
This collaboration really works, Badbadnotgood is an incredible band and I think Mick Jenkins is one of the best rappers in the game at the moment.
D'Angelo and The Vanguard
Sugah Daddy
Favourite track from one of the best albums I’ve ever heard.
