DAWN – New Breed [Local Action / Our Dawn]

This record sees the electronic R&B innovator at her peak, drawing on a wide range of influences, namely from her hometown of New Orleans. Cole M.G.N, Kaveh Rastegar, and Hudson Mohawke are some of the talents that help out on the LP as well.
Jay Prince – WONDER [DRMCLB / COSA NOSTRA MUSIC]
Following his uptempo Sango produced single "BEAMLIGHT," East London’s Jay Prince delivers his new EP, Wonder. This seven-song project sees Jay do what he does best, deliver smooth bars over nostalgic production, with influences of 1990’s U.S. hip-hop.
Hare Squead – "100 Miles" [Hare Squead]
After a lengthy hiatus, Dublin’s Hare Squead is back with their new single "100 Miles." The trio was silent in 2018 after dropping a solid amount of music in prior years, including their feature on GoldLink’s At What Cost LP.
