"I made this song with EMAN8 & Mike Biancaniello, an awesome producer/writer that I've had the privilege to work with on my new music. When I reached out to Keenan, who's an upcoming rapper from my hometown, we hadn't talked in many years. I was super stoked that he was into the song & I think it's so cool that we can collaborate remotely. Pretty sure the last time we saw each other was when I took him to my senior prom."

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

“This production was crafted immediately after a bad breakup, I tried to reflect that as much as possible through the sound design and songwriting. When you’re young and something unfortunate happens it feels like the end of the world, thats when you have to take a step back and tell yourself; Don’t Feel So Bad! I hope everyone enjoys this fun track!” — Emerald Lake

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

DJ and producer Ekonovah, released a brand new single this morning titled, ‘Wait A Minute’.

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

“‘Wait A Minute’ was so fun to write.  I made it pretty fast, in only 3 sessions or so. I became really inspired by the idea of oscillating back and forth from this grandiose reverb to a dry, dampened sound which I’ve since been implementing in a lot of my tracks.  Once I found those horn hits which occur before the second drop and outro, that’s when the full idea really solidified into a cohesive track. Suddenly, it had this fun ‘x-factor’ that crowds respond to really well during my sets!" — Ekonovah

Have you checked out Hazlett's 'Fireworks' yet? Stream it here!

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

When it comes to writing from the heart, Hazlett’s latest is an honest reflection of just that. Titled ‘Fireworks’, we love the instrumentation. The entire soundscape from start to finish feels a bit like a dream. A dream that is slowly fading away. And of course, the vocal style is incredible. The lyrical depth behind Hazlett’s writing is powerful, it’s deep, it’s moving, but at its core… it’s emotional and it comes from a genuine place. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think down below. Don’t forget to connect with the artist online to stay up to date on any upcoming releases and enjoy!

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

“I wrote this song after a night in Croatia with my then girlfriend. We bought some cheap fireworks from the corner store and set them off a rooftop after dinner. It was bittersweet, they made magic look so easy and all I wanted was for her to look at me like that. But I think if you have it, you have it. Love shouldn’t be work, love is magic.” — Hazlett

Robokid's 'RK1' mixtape review (feat. Hotel Garuda, Kid Froopy, AObeats, & Manila Killa)

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Robokid released his mixtape Friday and we’ve had the entire project on repeat since. When we tried brainstorming what we would review (seeming how more than several of the tracks have already been featured on our platform) we decided to switch things up for once. So, let it be known, this isn’t so much a mixtape review, but more of an appreciation post for the amount of hard work that has been put into ‘RK1’.

Not only does the mixtape feature collaborations with artists like Hotel Garuda, Manila Killa, Kid Froopy, and AObeats.. but it includes 4 new tracks highlighting the diverse style of an artist that not only stands out creatively and lyrically, but further instills the idea that honing such a unique sound takes patience, determination, and of course, a lot of hard work.

Everything from the artwork, to the typography, to even the vocal effects and sound design are unique. And to be honest, we see a lot of artists attempt to do what Robokid is doing, but unfortunately, it just isn’t the same.

You can’t fake authenticity and that’s exactly what Robokid stands for. Even when it comes to his work outside of writing and producing music. The artist runs a record label, creates meaningful art, and even shares his love for the fashion world on a daily basis.

As you listen through, pay attention to the details of the track and to the lyrics. Pay attention to how the artist performs from track to track, and last, allow this project to inspire you in your own work going forward. Don’t forget to subscribe to the artist online to stay up to date on his upcoming tour with Slayyyter and enjoy!

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

"This mixtape is special because it’s the first full-length body of work I am putting out after transitioning from DJ-ing and producing to writing and recording full songs. I wanted to develop a sound that was influenced by all my favorite music I loved while growing up mixed with today’s production styles. I feel that this mixtape is an exploration of the sonics of pop music from the late 80s and 90s, mixed with now, as well as laced with personal excerpts about the past and present." — Robokid
