Got a bunch of tracks I wanna share with yall, across genres as we like to do over here. Strap in, these’ll take you on a moodcoaster.

(Hip Hop)

First up is Asher Roth‘s Ampersand, a laid back tune that Mr. Roth dropped to go with the rainy weather that’s currently taking over the East Coast. He does it dirty with his usual alliteration over a mellow beat. Always love the random track releases from Asher, look out for his album soon.

(Electro)

Next is another Pretty Lights mashup, this time with Led Zeppelin. I really don’t see myself ever not enjoying a Pretty Lights song. Here he mixes his head bangin’ beats with a gritty electric guitar. Anyone know what Led Zeppelin song this is mixed with?

(House/Electro)

Mau5trap spoiled us the last couple days, with the official release of Deadmau5’s “Where Are My Keys” and a new distorted, thumping electro banger from Feed Me. This track isn’t as glitchy as what we’ve heard from Feed Me before, more tolerant to the listener who can’t handle the usual grime. Very melodic and he’s still got the crispest hard electro sound I’ve heard from any artist.

Feed Me – Cott’s Face

(Hip Hop)

Epic released another track yesterday off his upcoming EP, Third Shift. This one features Jhene Aiko, and has more of an R&B vibe than his other stuff. I love focused songwriting and this definitely demonstrates that. The concept behind his mixtape is very interesting – more on that soon when the tape is released.

Epic – Love Changes (ft. Jhene Aiko)

(Hip Hop)

Finally, we have a new track from Mac Miller, who may be the most popular artist in hip-hop right now. This is a short 2 minute jam produced by Clams Casino, but it bangs. Definitely a heavier beat than Mac usually works with, but he goes in as he usually does. This one won’t be featured on Blue Slide Park.

Mac Miller – Cold Feet

The homie’s been telling me about Epic for a minute now, having caught him at the Dunk Exchange opening for Pusha T and recently opening up for Dom Kennedy at the Glasshouse. I just got to listening his latest track “Call It How I See It” yesterday and now I understand the hype. The track’s produced by 23 year old Hit-Boy, the latest addition to G.O.O.D. Music. He’s also the man behind the berserk “Niggas in Paris” off Watch the Throne. This track’s got some dope trumpets blaring in the back while Epic impresses from the get-go. He reminds me of Casey Veggies a little, but more lyrical and with a cleaner flow. And apparently can get a crowd live which is essential for any aspiring rapper. His next project, Third Shift EP comes out September 5th.

“My shoe game like Liu Kang/I spit flame like Wu-Tang”
