This week’s song to lose it to: Celso by ETC!ETC! (Audio)

Diplo is showing artists how to take their destiny into their own hands

It is only a matter of time before artists realize that they do not have to place their faith in others anymore. The revolution is constantly happening in the digital space. Now BitTorrent – once the music industry’s scapegoat, because people were using it for so called illegal filesharing – announced a distribution and payment model, where the artists and publishers keep 90 per cent of sales.

ESKEI83 – Jammin’ (Eskei83 Bootleg) (Audio)

You know that amazing feeling of two seemingly uncombinable dishes forming the perfect epiphany in your mouth? ESKEI83 is known for achieving just that effect in your ears. Just listen to this sweet Jammin’ bootleg, and how it effortlessly opens up into Skrillex‘ and Damian Marleys Dub-Step-Reggae banger of 2012: Make It Bun Dem. How does the food related saying go? The apple never falls far from the tree. Maybe one Marley will always sound good on another Marley’s song, who knows. ESKEI83 surely makes it look like it is the case. Enjoy! 

Drunken Masters – The Hour of Power 1 & 2 (Mix)

From the very start, the Drunken Masters showed a unique talent for making seemingly foreign genres blend as smoothly as whipped cream melts into hot chocolate. They have been living up to this reputation with a series of highly entertaining mixtapes, of which The Hour Of Power 1 & 2 are the latest. Here you have two chefs cooking up the hottest ish of 2013/2014, and serving it in style, which in the case of the Drunken Masters means: massy, sassy and always bassy.
