Absolute Thief - Houdini EP

Download Absolute Thief - Houdini EP

Absolute Thief is Dave Portál & Computer Jay.

Unearthed from the muddy funk of sweat and soul, these two lads enjoy the flavors of some inner city mud cued to the filthy voice of betty davis. No complaints here. He’s half man half machine, the other one? A small time crook with a love for fast women and fast cars. Don’t be quick to judge, they’ll flip it on you faster than a short order cook. I’ve seen it and I’ve heard it..

Portformat – The Repeat Factor LP (Purple Planet)

Download: Portformat – Purple Planet (320kbps / .mp3)

A few days ago I had the pleasure of checking out Portformats new ‘The Repeat Factor LP’ which will be dropping on the 3rd of December. I’ve had it on constant rotation in my itunes ever since and decided, thanks to Tokyo Dawn, to drop an exclusive track from the album up for you guys to have a taster!

I had previously heard Portformat alongside Comfort Fit but overall he was still quite a new artist to my ears. To me this album had a perfect mix of soulful beats, vocals, hip-hop vibes and flowed really well as a whole. It was nice change to hear someone coming in from a variety of angles but still having the album fit together as a whole without feeling disjointed. When we get music sent over we have no obligation to post up any reviews or write about it but I thought this release really deserves a mention so go and check it out for yourself as you really should know about this guy!

Bonus: You can also download his awesome old album ‘Classics’ for free here!

J.Rocc - Secondhand Sureshots

Download: J.Rocc - Secondhand Sureshots

When the guys at Dublab & Hit+Run hit up every dollar record bin in the Los Angeles area looking for album covers to salvage and repaint for their Secondhand Sureshots Deluxe Superset, they were left with one problem: what to do with the hundreds of discarded, sleeveless records that no one wanted?

Solution: Give them to J.Rocc.

This is an extension of the Secondhand Sureshots project, a J.Rocc mixtape made up of as many of the reject vinyl as he could manage. Given the working material, the results are impressive. Everyone who has ever flipped through a dollar bin might think twice the next time they pass up those multiple copies of Loggins & Messina, Hotel California, Linda Ronstadt in roller skates, and all those anonymous classical records after hearing what can be done with them.

Stones Throw is legendary and they have a dope podcast. I have been listening for a long ass while but for those who don’t know I suggest you check it out as it’s free and full of treats from all their artists! I had the pleasure of seeing J.Rocc a bunch of times whilst in LA and the man is about as awesome as it gets when it comes to spinning vinyl, enjoy!

Soulful vibes for a Monday from Jesse Boykins & AFTA-1. (via)

One of the highlights of Jesse Boykins III’s debut full length LP, The Beauty Created, “Amorous” has been remixed with love by AFTA-1.

Jesse describes the California-based producer as, “One of my favorite producers out! …Definitely a visionary when it comes to composition and sound construction. He finds ways to take you away from here without you having to even step out the door.”

BONUS: Also download the MeLo-X Remix or the Machine Drum Remix!
