Adidas tracksuit music.

I’m here for techno that slaps this hard.

We had to borrow this footwork remix from Burial and Kode9’s Fabriclive 100 mix.

This sounds like Shirley Bassey in outer space. Something tells me it syncs up perfectly with Moonraker.

Sweaty and sparse.

Zomby’s 8-bit grooves are some of the few that I can get behind. The jumpy vocal samples on “Labyrinth” and the ominous, meandering “Trap Door” are high points. Also peep his awesome album Dedication from earlier this year.

Listen to Nothing here.

Whatsoever.

Jonwayne owes just as much to Koji Kondo as he does to the beat scene and not just for his surface level video game references. “King” is built on top of classic Nintendo boss level gloom. But not the boss fight itself — “King” summons the ominous tones of the dungeon/level that precedes the final showdown. Anyone who has played Ocarina of Time knows what I’m talking about. “King” will appear on The Death of Andrew EP, which drops October 25.

It’s hard to reconcile Freddie Gibbs’ far flung collaborations with the fact that he’s signed to Young Jeezy. Still, Gibbs is more than comfortable on the electronic track.
