New Music: Fossa Beats - Thank U
Elements you know, arranged pretty perfectly.. If you tried to imagine all the elements of future-beats/R&B you've come to know and love over the past 12-18 months, then threw them into one song I think that song would be Thank U by Melbourne producer Fossa Beats (heck the title even incorporates the letter 'U' in place of 'you'). You might consider this a knock, but let me also assure you it's not; some people just throw this stuff into their music because it's de rigueur. Fossa Beats fucking owns it and Thank U is the perfect combination of everything you love in the genre. It's beautifully restrained, takes off where it needs to, drops into a tidy little Jersey beat here and there, has some killer percussion, and most enjoyably is just really perfectly produced. Vibes all over the place. Plus check out these choice quotes from some of the country's heaviest hitters: "I always listen to Fossa Beats when I'm hanging out my washing." - DEER "My fav sets are when I play b2b with Fossa '
Jamie Now - Never Fade EP
A damn accomplished slice of future-beat if ever we've heard one.. We first came across Melbourne-via-Perth producer Jamie Now when he flicked us this KILLER REMIX of Golden Features' Tell Me feat. Nicole Millar, and have been eagerly anticipating more original work since, and this week saw the release of his Never Fade EP. Following a quick listen it's fair to say his transition from drum'n'bass and dubstep to future-beats and chilltrap has been a smooth one. It still errs into those kinda territories at times, particularly on Exhale (which more than anything took me back to the old Donkey Kong SNES game for some reason), but the rest remains a masterclass in on-point production and futuristic electronica. You can stream it below, or buy it for next to nothing via BANDCAMP. Follow Jamie Now: FACEBOOK // SOUNDCLOUD
