Crown Ape, Boj, Olexesh: Who Dat Girl?

Crown Ape, Boj, Olexesh: Who Dat Girl?

Crown Ape’s “WHO DAT GIRL?”, with Boj and Olexesh, functions as a stripped-back architecture where the heat of Lagos and the pavement of Frankfurt occupy the same air. The production removes the usual density of afrobeats, leaving a kick drum…

Lesley Mok: berserk

Lesley Mok: berserk

Lesley Mok’s “berserk” builds momentum by refusing to land, a track that drives forward through the implication of a downbeat rather than its arrival. Beats cluster and split without settling, drawing from beat-making traditions and Cuban rumba while avoiding a…

Vansire, Eliza McLamb: Atmospheric River.

Vansire and Eliza McLamb’s “Atmospheric River” treats weather as a condition that settles over people and thought at once, a band of rain that does not pass but stays. Recorded during an atmospheric river, the track holds that continuous fall,…

Florence Dore: Abacus

Florence Dore: Abacus

Florence Dore’s “Abacus” treats love as a refusal to be solved, a voice arguing against its own impulse to measure by staging that argument inside the language of numbers. The opening image sits her down with Descartes, “one and one…

Frank Lotion & DJ HYGGE: Love All Night

Frank Lotion & DJ HYGGE: Love All Night

Frank Lotion & DJ HYGGE’s “Love All Night” is built to hold a single state in place, a loop where the promise of staying becomes more important than anything that might interrupt it. Four years of testing across studios and…
