Time has come. Mount Kimbie's Cold Spring Fault Less Youth dropped last monday and is up on Spotify. 

The light and catchy tunes from the Crooks & Lovers album have been re-invented to more heavy acoustic instruments, drowning vocals & reverbs, moving organs and synths aproaching you from far, far away. Not to mention King Krule who delivers an exciting and powerfull contribution on the album. 

This album is perfect for the rainy springs that we in the Netherlands are used to, and probably, in England too.

Jesse Boykins III is one of the best dreamy singer I know. This new track is produced by TOKiMONSTA, a talented girl from L.A. 'Moon Rise' is from her Half Shadows EP, which is pretty good.

And if you don't know JBIII, check out his 'Way of Wayfarer' project on Gold Panda productions. Great stuff.

Delightful performance by singer Gregory Porter and pianist Chip Crawford.

The song that is performed by the two gentlemen is Be Good (Lion's Song) off Gregory Porters latest album also named Be Good. Really love the old-soul voice Mr. Porter produces and the playfull piano dancing around Porters voice, just like Ms. Be Good is dancing around the lion's cage. 

This beautiful performance was captured at the New York Transit Museum, downtown Brooklyn.

We had some serious catching up to do: Pusha T - Numbers on the Boards. One of the most crazy beats of 2013 (thanks Kanye) combined with Pusha's raspy voice equals straight fire.

Can't wait for his album 'My Name Is My Name' to drop. On the 16th of July that is.

Percussive african groove meets sweet cheasy vocals. Easy listening and a mellow experience, still able to let the temperature rise.  

DJ Black Coffee & Bucie are responsible for these warm and breezy harmonics.
