Rasson Arigato - New World EP

Download: Rasson Arigato - New World EP

Some dope beats and nice variety on this beat tape from Rasson Arigato. Feeling the laid back vibes of Galster Park while relaxing on a Saturday morning. The man seems to have some serious shit under his belt as well, take a listen.

Rasson is an artist from West Covina, CA. While attending the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, he was a host and DJ on jazz station 91.5 KUNV. He was also a member of the hip hop group Mob Zombie. While with the group, he recorded with Georgia Anne Muldrow and Declaime, and performed with Guru (Gangstarr), Talib Kweli, and countless others. Now back in his hometown in So Cal he’s embarked on a new musical journey, focusing on beatmaking, releasing remixes, and deejaying. The New World E.P. reflects his passion for experimenting with beats and pushing his own boundaries…

Deco is a good friend of mine from Atlanta, who now resides in LA and runs Deceast recordings. He works with a lot of tempos and creates everything from dope hip-hop to dubstep. While out there last week I caught onto this track which I must have missed, something on a slow chuggy house sort of vibe. It’s super fresh - check it out.

Asura - Unreleasables

Download: Asura - Unreleasables

I somehow slept on this for a couple of weeks but thanks to Brian for the link. I’d hope you’re all familiar with Non Projects and Asura before now and know that this is an essential listen. Cannot get enough of “He Sees On Through Her”, amazing music - cop it while it’s hot!

“Introducing Unreleasables, a bunch of music I’m never going to put out due to legal/artistic/motivation issues. mostly from the summer of 2010, a fine summer for us all for sure. featuring “pocket hearts” for download for the first time and a mighty fine “drake” track. please enjoy, won’t be hearing much else like this in the future… from these quarters.” - Ryan

So you will no doubt have seen our previous posts on R/D, or our first teaser for his album here. The time has now come though, for his new album ‘Liquid Heart Keeper’ to drop. As a little exclusive of what it has to offer we are letting you download this track for free!

If you’re fans of the Glitch Mob, Boreta, Kraddy or the previous works by R/D you’re going to love this album, after checking it out while working today I’ve already found a couple of tracks that will be going in my sets! Upbeat jammers mixed with some really melodic treats over a variety of tempos make up a great piece overall. Read on for more details, also check out his site for upcoming tour dates.

Bomb Zombies is a collaborative project from Low End Theory’s Dj Nobody & Nocando. Sparked off during a trip to Japan in 2009, I already know you’re thinking this is an exciting combination! Anyone who has been to Low End or has heard any previous releases will know about these guys talents, they both shine through in this release. The full EP, which is 8 tracks long drops tomorrow on Hellfyreclub, which is Nocando’s label. Be sure to check it out, some songs with lyrics that I like - boom!
