[Forthcoming Release] Amirali – In Time LP (Crosstown Rebels)

by

[Forthcoming Release] Amirali … WOW. Beautiful. Simply sublimely entrancingly beautiful. He has stolen my heart with his subtle combination of deep but downbeat energy, mesmerizing vocals, dark but beautifully light vibes, and euphoric sounds. It is evident in his alluring amalgamation of styles the range of what he notes as his greatest influence of his father’s record collection which opened his eyes to classical, jazz, blues, and rock’n'roll. From ‘The Harmonious Sound’ which is wholly angelic to the darker ‘Hear Me’ – every song on this LP set to release on Mi4L favorite Crosstown Rebels is enticing and spellbinding. I can’t even pick a favorite. They all have me hypnotized. This.is.ART! True talent and straight quality. Words cannot do this LP justice, you have to listen and experience the essence for yourself …

Everything he produces is so deep, it truly speaks to the soul.

[Forthcoming Release] Guess What Crosstown Rebels 094 Is

by

 

[Forthcoming Release] Earlier this week we reported about Jamie Jones’ upcoming second album, Tracks from the Crypt. Yesterday Crosstown Rebels posted previews of Jones’ first single from the album, titled “Our Time In Liberty,” on their Soundcloud. The distinct synth-stab melody, Kenny Glasgow’s vocals and staple, heavy Crosstown bass generate a uniquely energizing track, that will surely be played out (and already has been played) extensively by the Rebel crew by the time it is released April 10th. The real highlight here, however, is Russ Yallop remix in which the elements are significantly lightened while keeping the bass heavy and grounded giving an enchanting and more dreamy effect to the original track.  Collaborating here with superstar duo Art Department, Jamie Jones is sure to escalate further up the ranks of legendary with this release and those to follow on the album.

[New Release] Maceo Plex – Frisky EP (Crosstown Rebels)

by

 

 

[New Release] Just in time for spring mating season. “Title track ‘Frisky’ has all the flair of a Maceo floor burner, destined to warm bodies as the night draws in and set the mood for fun and friskiness. With a sprinkling of classic Maceo dust over the mid-tempo chugging groove, the bassline rumbles below that well renowned funk and there’s no doubt Maceo’s reign over slinky hypnotic house is set to continue.

Continuing in the smokey house vein but lifting the tempo for the later crowd, ‘Sex Appeal’ is another ode to the fairer members of the species and injects a little romance into the more bumping slice of Maceo gold on offer here. A dose of acid and a breakdown and slow build of shooting synths until the melodic bassline drop is sure to raise the roof.”
Crosstown Rebels does it again. Get familiar with this one lovers, it will inevitably be fueling you the through many ‘frisky’ spring and summer nights on the horizon.

[The Scoop] Jamie Jones Readies New Album for June Release

by

 

[The Scoop] Jamie Jones is set to release a new album in June, according to Resident Advisor.  The album won’t be the debut platform for all its tracks, as works such as “Paradise,” which has already received play at parties, will reportedly be included. The album, titled Tracks from the Crypt, is slated to come out on Crosstown Rebels, following in the footsteps of his full-length, 2009 debut Don’t You Remember the Future.  Given the Hot Creation boss’s track record (literally and figuratively), there’s no doubt that you should be ecstatic for this come summertime.
