The enchanting miss Sojuju from the Netherlands has been on our radar for a hot minute. This young lady has gathered a collection of heartfelt and touching songs and carefully crafted them into 34 minutes of bliss. It is with great pleasure that we present to you Moovmnt Guest Mix 12. Mixed and selected by young lady Sojuju who represents the Flow-Fi collective.
Strangely Sojuju is the very first female guest DJ we have ever had. I guess this series needed a feminine touch and perhaps the next guest mix will be by the hands of another lady. What’s up Kronika? Are you game?
Kick back and enjoy this lovely guest mix. A special thanks goes out to Duktus for droppin’ some good looking artwork once more. If you like what you hear, please hit the repost button and grab a free download to maximize the fun.
When we first heard about thestand4rd‘s track called “Decisions“, we were really feeling this foursome.
Their unique sounds come together nicely and the thestand4rd, consisting of Allan Kingdom, Psymun, Bobby Raps and Spooky Black, seems like a perfect outcome of an exceptional chain of events. Earlier today they released their self-titled debut album. It was recorded at Doc McKinney’s (The Weeknd’s producer) studio in Toronto. Their weird mix between electronic Hip Hop and R&B is as unique as each member’s identity.
Lucky for us the album is a freebie, so go ahead and download it for free. Shouts to Michael Cina for the artwork and please do share, like and repost if you enjoy the music!
On one of my usual quests for new music, I came across Rawdee‘s fresh “Trecna” song. I was very impressed by the whole vibe and thought I’d share it first thing in the morning.
Rowdy Lewing is from the Dutch city of Enschede and has been making music for some time now. He caught the world’s attention a few years back with his “Hawks Eye View” album and now Rawdee has returned with something fresh and exciting. Can’t wait to hear new music from this talented producer, but in the meanwhile grab yourselves a free download of “Trecna” while supplies last.
Still one of the most mesmerizing producers in the game has to be Galimatias, who has been working alongside Alina Baraz from Cleveland for quite some time now. Given they have a special connection when it comes to music, we are curious about their future ventures.
The following track from the Danish producer is called “Dahlia Petals” and is about a year old. Galimatias never released it officially, since he was afraid he would get in trouble for sampling vocals from Boyz II Men. It’s pure ambient bliss with a garage type of feel to it and you can download it for free right now, right here!
Yung player Frank de Bruin aka Singularis from Gorinchem has been on my radar for a while and when he told he was approached by Soulection to do a white label release, I was very excited for him.
Now I thought it would come out early 2015, but to my surprise it dropped this weekend. And this “Soulection White Label 012” ladies and gentlemen is another fine release, we Dutchies can be proud of. Guess I can let the cat out of the bag now. In 2015 we will be doing a monthly Dutch producer series in which we shine the light on ultra talented, underrated and up-and-coming local producers. Y0ung Singularis is one of the first in this series, so get ready to get to know him and a gang of others a bit better next year.
In the meanwhile get crunk to this free downloadable EP and DJ’s sure to play out “Head Up” in the club.
If you didn’t know any better, one would almost think it’s B. Bravo week here. What a bunch of flavorful tracks have been flowing our way. We love it!
His brand new freebie “Soprano“ has nothing to do with mobsters or gangsters though. This one is for his pops who got Adam into music way back when. I’m proud to say I met pops (and the rest of the fam) back in 2010 and what a nice guy he is. He wanted to show off some martial arts skills and I’m sure he would’ve thrown me to the floor if I would’ve let him.
Not many of you know that B. Bravo also plays a little saxophone, but in combination with the DX7 and those 808’s it sounds so jazzy and laid back. Get ya sexy on to this one fellas and snatch a free download right here.
Very very very happy to hear so many Funk bangers coming out of camp Salva this week. His collaboration “I Could Be” with B. Bravo and Rojai was straight crackin’, but man it just keeps getting better and better!
His “Peacemaker” mixtape released earlier this week and features Young Thug, Schoolboy Q, ASAP Ferg, Kurupt, E-40, Freddie Gibbs and more big names. It’s available for free download as of now, so grab that asap. First track on there is another slap of Funk in your face. Salva is “Freaking U” together with Starship Connection (B. Bravo & Teeko) and it’s so damn sexy. Good to hear so much California G-Funk from my mens.
Follow Salva on Soundcloud in case you weren’t doing so yet.
Not that long ago I talked to PYRMDPLAZA from Wales. On that particular occasion he told me Soulection had asked him to do a White Label release. What I did not know is that it would drop so damn fast as White Label 011.
PYRMDPLAZA is currently attending the University of Wales and is studying ‘Creative Sound and Music’. He started making music about 6-7 years ago with FLStudio, but now uses Ableton. Some of you might remember some of his previous releases on the French imprint Laruche Records.
As always this white label release is available for free download, so go ahead and grab this one!
Another northman who goes by the name of Jasper Staal teams up with fellow Groninger Duke Hugh on the track “Buttarolls“.
While most of Jasper’s productions are Trap-oriented. With Buttarolls, we see a more soulful side with Don Blackman inspired slap bass. The homie Hugo is one of Holland’s best kept secrets. Fatherhood made him grow a belly, but when this guy teams up with Jasper Staal that’s the hook! I heard that Jasper and HughGo are working on a project together, so lets hope there’s more butter in the barrel waiting to be churned.
Shout out to the Darker Than Wax fam for making this one available for free download. Worldwide, we moov!
Jessie Ware might not be an artist you would expect to see on our little music site. When Robin Hannibal is involved musically, you know we’re all over it.
In 2013 Jessie Ware recorded this demo at the Red Bull Studios in London called “12” that did not make it onto “Tough Love”. Robin Hannibal co-wrote the song and produced it together with Salva. What Paul Salva from Frite Nite Records? On guitars we hear Joel Van Dijk and Jessie’s gentle vocals are the icing on the cake.
Indulge yourself and revel in some midnight delight. Oh and what a gift to be able to download this beauty in wave quality for free.
