Madhouse Mondays: Jon Quest ft. Hubbs

My dude Hubbs jumped on this Jon Quest track and straight murked it. Go on, Hubbs. Get that.

Throwback Thursdays: Juice Newton

I recently copped the 1981 Juice Newton album Angel of the Morning - which includes "Queen of Hearts". I LOVED this song in my youth, still do. The production is on point. Crisp claps, slap-back delays. Go ahead, sing along.

Way Gone Wednesdays: Alexandre Francisco Diaphra

African beatmaker Alexandre Francisco Diaphra used his surroundings to inspire his latest project, Diaphra's Blackbook of the Beats. Dig this artist at work.

Real Talk Tuesdays: NBA Playoffs

Well, I wrote recently about my "college basketball hangover" and how I'd eventually start watching the NBA playoffs to help with the shakes - but three nights in a row last week games ended with buzzer-beater shots. They just might have my attention. Now, somebody play some fucking defense.

Madhouse Mondays: ED-APE

Might be too early for this shit but it's fun and trippy. Dig this ED-APE joint.
