HARD Presents | Tickets

In preparation (and anticipation) for the wonder that will be HARD Summer 2013, the Gary Richards gang have started a mini mix series dubbed “Future Stars”. The first four mixes are by Paper Diamond, the boys over at Body High, Green Lantern, and Justin Jay. The artists definitely fit the mix series’ claim, if they are not already past it. Catch the details after the jump.

Hello friends! It’s been a minute — I’m finally feeling somewhat settled out here in Barcelona and starting to think I may never return to the US. Beautiful women, amazing architecture, siestas, and an overflow of opportunities to see great electronic music. If they had animal fries out here that’d seal the deal. Anywho, more on the city later when I have some stuff to stimulate your ojos. For now your ears will have to take in the jams that have provided the soundtrack for the city. Hit the jump to hear ’em all. (more…)

Paper Diamond just dropped his take on SBTRKT & Little Dragon’s “Wildfire” earlier today over at This Song Is Sick. He adds some head-nodding flare to a track that already bangs. The version with Drake is definitely one of the best releases so far this year. Check it out below and scope our post on him from yesterday.

With Outside Lands just a few days away, I’m doing my best to live vicariously through all you lucky fucks. The first step is making sure you don’t miss Paper Diamond. Paper Diamond is the side (or forward) project of Alex B, accomplished maker of rhythmic, finely crafted beats — although the term beats sells the sound far short. He dropped his first EP, “Levitate,” under his new moniker on Pretty Lights‘ Record Label earlier this year for free, in typical PLM fashion. The 9-song EP has the flexible type of sound that can be enjoyed by almost anyone in any given setting. Its impact can be as little as a slight head nod to as much as involuntary moving of every body part. His tunes have the Pretty Lights sound with a little less melody and a little more hip-hop influence. He dabbles in photography, graffiti, and graphic design as well, so his album art is visually appealing and I’m sure his show will be too. I guess you can say he’s a well-rounded artist of all trades. Check a video of his performance at the Snowball Music Festival for a peek and grab the Levitate EP below.
