bLAck pARty resurfaces on a buttery mid-tempo stepper from Gavin Turek, who appears to be in new album mode.

Dawn Richard – “Nostalgia”

Dawn Richard heads into house-fueled hyperspace on a four-to-the-floor standout from her new album, Second Line.

Flying Lotus – “Using What You Got”

A head-rattling selection from Flying Lotus‘ stellar score to the new Netflix original anime series, Yasuke, which basically doubles as a new album from the Brainfeeder founder.

oogie featuring Gutter Kid – “SIX FOOT TALL”

A cerebral slow-burner from oogie’s freshly-released debut mixtape, somehow it makes sense.

Prince Shakir featuring MAVI – “the great delusion”

MAVI has been a reliable guest on some of subterranean rap’s most compelling drops this year. His latest assist arrives on a heavy-swung loosie from Prince Shakir.

AKAI SOLO launches the campaign for his upcoming Navy Blue-produced project, True Sky, with a skittering lead single.

YUNGMORPHEUS – “Candyman”

The Alchemist featuring Maxo and Pink Siifu – “Holy Hell”
