Abstract Youth

WTCHDCTR

The aural voodoo of Calgary’s WTCHDCTR instantly put us in a state of rumination. His ambient beats are perfect for closed-eye adventures; fall under his spell and count some electric sheep. Get his work for free here.

Blackedout | Soundcloud

Blackedout makes me think of the “one too many” bong-rip after a night of drinking. Melting into the couch. Drifting into never land. Contemplating on whether or not the last few shots were even worth it. As always is the case, probably not. But then you have this jam. Just let it take over and lay you to sleep in peace. It’s so dreamy. Thankfully Blackedout has it up for free download. Check this and his other winter vibe tracks on his soundcloud. His self-titled EP is downloadable free here.

Cashmere Cat | Soundcloud

It’s hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since Cashmere Cat graced us with his beautiful debut EP Mirror Maru. Since then he’s been garnering more and more acclaim; getting booked at festivals and events around the world, most recently opening for Dillon Francis on his I Don’t Give A Fuck or Santa tour.

Today our favorite feline released “With Me”, his beaming new single. While showcasing his distinct production style along a melancholic piano intro, the uplifting synths and percussion climax is unlike anything we’ve ever heard. “With Me” will be featured on Cashmere Cat’s Wedding Bells EP, set to released in January. Kitty’s back y’all.

Hip hop and electronic music are colliding in an exciting way as the trap movement keeps growing. Lately, dance floors have been filled with low-end neurocrunk and the kids are begging for more. The problem is, trap bangers are a dime a dozen; everyday there’s a new air horn drenched “festival” remix of Afrojack, Dada Life, Hardwell or the like. The good news is there’s still some cool underground #trapshit laying around. Let’s get weird.

The random debris of trapstyle has made it exponentially harder to filter out the quality from the rubbish. However, one track that stands out from the drivel is Major Lazer’s new trapstyle remix of Hot Chip’s ‘Look At Where We Are’. Diplo 4 President. In related news, Mad Decent has been releasing the individual lineups for their block parties. No word on the Los Angeles’ lineup, but fingers crossed for Baauer and Flosstradamus.

It’s official; the S.S. Traptanic has hit an iceberg and is quickly sinking. Just like what happened to moombahton, trap is now on an unavoidable crash course into the icy waters of the mainstream. It was fun while it lasted.
