Here is Brooklyn native Fresh Daily’s new LP that dropped on 3rd May. He has a great flow, refreshingly creative lyrics & ‘The Quiet Life’ features production from the likes of MNDSGN, Hi-Res, Doom, The Stuyvesants & even Dilla. Listen to & download the LP on the widget below.

Here’s the new LP from French producer Evil Needle. It includes 15 tracks of spacey, soulful beats with some amazing bass lines. Listen to it on the widget below or download it here.

Kev Brown is not only one of my favourite producers, but is without a doubt one of the most underrated ones too. He has produced for the likes of Raheem DeVaughn, Phonte from Little Brother, Grap Luva, De La Soul, Busta & even contributed to Dj Jazzy Jeff’s ‘Magnificent EP’. Kev has just released a new album with Kaimbr called ‘The Alexander Green Project’ & to draw more attention to his music is also giving this compilation of classics and unreleased tracks away for free. For those of you new to his production and like this free download, be sure to check out his albums ‘I Do What I Do’, ‘Random Joints’ & the classic Jay-Z Black Album remix ‘The Brown Album’.

Connecticut psych-soul outfit The Stepkids are the first of several new Stones Throw artists to be announced in 2011; three singer-songwriters already destined for great things together. The Stepkids groove is a fusion of punk and jazz, West African and 1960s folk, neo and classic soul, classic funk and 20th century classical. The band produce, engineer and record themselves on a reel-to-reel.

“La La is track of the year so far… if you like Rotary Connection and you want a modern twist on that sound, The Stepkids is for you”
Gilles Peterson, BBC Radio 1

The 12″ single is out in April and fully keeps up with Stones Throw Record’s high production standards with embossed sleeve and multicoloured marbled vinyl. Strictly limited to 1000 pressings.

Aum Brand Clothing & DMC Champ Dj Matman Present..’The Midas Touch’ – A fast-paced mix of 80’s Soul, Funk & Boogie, blending classics & forgotten gems.
