This remix has been in the works for quite some time. Bilal is a mysterious dude. You never know what might or might not move him. Same goes for Black Milk. These guys move at their own pace and at their own times. Initially, upon listening to the roughs of the album, “The Dollar” was one of the tracks that led Plug Research to sign Bilal. Buy Airtights Revenge (Bonus Track Version) on Airtight's Revenge (Bonus Track Version) - Bilal. VTech/Plug Research.

Bilal is back with his “Levels” EP that includes the original, an instrumental version and two remixes. First is by L.A.’s big dawg Flying Lotus and the other one is from Sonnymoon. Really digg FlyLo’s mellowed out version, so give it a listen. Or go ahead and purchase the EP via Levels - EP - Bilal or the Plug Research shop.

VTech is premiering the first official music video off of Bilal‘s new album “Airtight’s Revenge” (Plug Research), directed and edited by Michael Sterling Eaton. In case you haven’t listened to the new album yet, I suggest you head on over to Airtight's and give it an intense listen.

Last month we met up with Soulquarian Bilal after his show in Amsterdam (Paradiso) and behold the result. Our camera man Joao couldn’t make it, so me and Deluge decided to shoot the video ourselves on his Canon 550D. Big thank you for editing it though and I think it came out pretty nice, because Bilal goes pretty deep.

As you might know his album “Airtight’s Revenge” (Plug Research) is coming out in a month and today his first single “Restart” drops. Bilal is giving away the track on his website at http://www.plugresearch.com/bilal where fans can enter their email address to receive an immediate download. The Restart single includes an instrumental version and a remix by Los Angeles experimental Brainfeeder producer Deadelus. Pre-order yourself a vinyl copy of the album HERE or if you’re more into CD’s you can get a copy over at Rush Hour or Amazon. Your digital hunger can be satisfied by visiting iTunes.

After all these years the wait is almost over! Bilal is back with a whole new style of album entitled “Airtight’s Revenge” which you’ll either love or hate. One of my favorite producers at the moment, Nottz stepped up to produce “Free” which is not on the album by the way. This FREE download was brough to you by the good folks over at Plug Research and be on the look out for “Airtight’s Revenge” to drop September 14th! We might have something special coming up soon this summer, but more on that later. Shout out to JKim and Rush Hour..
