[Electronic Soul] midnight – Absolute Reprise (prod. Karnaval Blues)

Absolute Reprise (prod. Karnival Blues)

Following his 0:00 EP, midnight teamed up with Majestic Casual for a brand new tune that marks a continuation stemming from the project’s second track, “Absolute”. He croons:

You’ve seen the way that they look at me but / you’re not afraid, you wanna stay / you’ve seen the way that my mind can be / you’re my savin grace, you keep the devil away

midnight’s trademark has always managed to juggle being smooth, being aware, and combining both of these aspects to blaze his own path in the ever-colliding worlds of electronic music, R&B, and pop. The revamped production courtesy of Karnaval Blues constructs a complementary vision to the crisp falsetto delivery of midnight in the instrumentation, building a solid foundation around his vocals with a measured tact. midnight continues to create relieving and soothing tunes time after time, and “Absolute Reprise” is another winner. Majestic Casual hooked us up with a free download here.

O R I O N – Gold Dust ft. Cammie Robinson

This song is from a little while ago, but it was new to us and instantly caught our ears. O R I O N put together a beautiful brain-melter with “Gold Dust”, and the sparse, but angelic vocals of Cammie Robinson are the icing on the cake. The innate feeling of escapism creeps out throughout the tune, and you’ll want to go explore the world as it plays. Enjoy this one on a bright and day. You’ll feel absolutely wonderful.

midnight – Native America (feat. The Internet)

The combination of midnight and The Internet is impossible to be apathetic about. Touching on the marred past of the United States, these talented people describe the constant push for the best life available in a seductive fashion that gives the message a new appearance. We’ve been hooked on midnight ever since his XXI Labors EP, and seeing him work with The Internet to deliver such a powerful message only solidifies our admiration of his work. Find some time to really sit and reflect on these lyrics.

Goldlink – Unique (Louis Futon Remix)

This one is simply fun. That’s no surprise, coming from Louis Futon. He decided to return to his earlier remix roots by flipping this Goldlink and Anderson Paak original into absolutely irresistible scorcher of a dance tune. We’re not even sure what the best part of it is, but there is one thing we know for sure. It’s ALL great. Kick off the shift into warm weather with this one.

The Geek x Vrv – Coming Up’ Feat Kellylee Evans & Atom

So much soul. The Geek x Vrv never fails to bring out the best funk, hip-hop, and soul crossovers with their material, and “Coming Up” is a vibrant new addition to their stellar sound. Featuring a fourth of C2C and the striking singing of Kellylee Evans, this song triumphs on its 90s rap atmosphere and style that’s revamped and repurposed into a more modern sound. You can’t NOT bob your head. We’re making sure to keep the double negative there just so you know we MEAN it. Throw this tune on when you just want to groove.
