Mixtape: Hudson Mohawke, Valentine’s Day Slow Jams VIII
Stream / download a steamy new mix from Scottish loverman HudMo.. "Lay back, and let Hudson Mohawke take you away..." 29-year-old Glasgwegian producer Hudson Mohawke, the producer and one half of TNGHT, has been busy working on a follow up to his Chimes EP, and has also been putting in work producing for Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis, and singer Antony Hegarty, producing Hegarty’s album. "The album I’m producing for Anthony is really cool as fuck," he told NME recently. But he’s not been too busy to neglect a very special tradition: for eight years now, HudMo has released a love-themed mix on Valentines’ Day every year; and it’s always a corker. Slow Jams VIII is no different: kicking off with a big, jazzy, live-sounding version of Can’t Hide Love by the original casanova D'Angelo, the mix also features Klymaxx, Bill Withers and Stephanie Mills: it’s the perfect mix between slinky disco grooves, Whitney Houston style big pop, and soulful R & B – with a bunch of gunshots and HudMo I

Video: Ego - Between Dreams Mixtape
Audio/Visual maestro Ego releases the full version of his funky mixtape.. After teasing us with a visual edit of Kanye & Jay’s Bound 2 and a Where The Wild Things Are edition of Electric Mantis’ Flips & Flops, Drips & Drops, earlier last year (which also appears in this show), Australian DJ Ego has dropped his full Audio Visual (A/V) live show, Between Dreams, online. Described as a “rip through the ether - a flight through fantasies, fables, fiction, imaginings, visions, wishes, washed-out memories, would-be’s and could-be’s, soundtracked by future beat, bass and house”, Between Friends boasts an attractive lineup of tunes, including ODESZA, Caribou and Basenji (full tracklist below), accompanied by some pretty stellar and psychedelic takes of moments in film, pop culture, '80s advertising and vintage erotica. TRACKLIST:  1. Sweater Beats - Rain Dance 2. Odesza - Say My Name (Atticus Beats Remix) 3. Giraffage - Tell Me 4. Spank Rock - Gully 5. Caribou - Our Love 6. Sophie - Nothing M

New Music: Kevin Gates - Luca Brasi 2 Mixtape
Emotional thug Kevin Gates finishes 2014 strong with the Luca Brasi 2 Mixtape.. Louisiana rapper Kevin Gates and 2014 XXL Mag Freshmen Class member Kevin Gates is hard at work on his album for Atlantic Records right now, but in the meantime he's not leaving us hanging, finishing up 2014 strong with the delivery of his Gangsta Grillz mixtape, Luca Brasi 2, hosted by DJ Drama. It's the follow up to his 2013 breakthrough mixtape The Luca Brasi Story, and his most recent release since By Any Means, which came out earlier this year (he also jumped on a track with Rustie not too long ago). He’s joined on the tape by Atlanta's Rich Homie Quan (Word Around Town), R&B upstart August Alsina (I Don’t Get Tired #IDGT), B.O.B. (Talk on Phones), Red on Da Track for Perfect Imperfection and John Gotti (which also made it onto the tracklist for By Any Means), Rico Love, Bobby Johnson, B.O.B. and Bobbie Black. "Kevin Gates, I'm everybody's sworn favourite": for those new to Gates, his appeal lies mostl

How To Dress Well 'You and I Are The Same' Mixtape
Hear How To Dress Well's left-field reworks of FKA Twigs and Sia.. Just wanna marry Juana. Just wanna marry Tom Krell. Six months after the release of his third studio album, What Is This Heart?, Chicago-based singer / producer has made a new mixtape, his first since that great tape he made hungover a year ago. For years Tom Krell's Tumblr was an excellent source of discovery for new, strange music works, with music nerd Tom posting annual round-ups of his favourite tracks and albums - he's taken that music nerdery across to his mixes, steering us in the direction of some loose new stuff, including this great Medifired track, Spring Is Here, a slowed 'n' screwed, cloudy take on Backstreet Boys' I Want It That Way.   I love how artists like Krell, and Ryan Hemsworth, just do away with pretention in their mixes and just let their mixes go everywhere, including whatever songs are moving them at the time; like how Ryan puts Broken Social Scene into mixes alongside modern raps - Krell's don
