Good news for everyone! The Red Bull Music Academy is dropping the “Various Assets London 2010″ compilation album on July 19th. If you don’t know the deal yet, check out this previous post and educate yourself. We remember this year’s Academy as if it was yesterday and we’d like to give a big fat shout out to all the participants we met, hung out with and befriended. Can’t stress enough what a fantastic project this is and topping it off with a compilation album is the right way to do it.

We were given the honour of bringing you this exclusive track by TOKiMONSTA featuring Andreya Triana, Oddisee and the homie Tranqill entitled “Jackin4beats Pt. 4″. Without a doubt one of our favourite tunes on the compilation. But with artists like Dâm-Funk, Hudson Mohawke, Robin Hannibal, James Pants, 00Genesis, Katy B, Space Dimension Controller, Kidkanevil, B. Bravo, Myele Manzanza, Ad Bourke, Swede:art and a whole lot more on there, you know it gotsta be funky. Reserve some space on your harddrive for this FREE high bitrate (320) release. Unlike previous years, this release will be available digitally and for some lucky bastards in physical form too. Spread the word, download, smile, cry…do whatever you feel like doing.

Dec 18

Stones Throw’s newest star artist Dam Funk has earned status as the “ambassador of boogie funk,” and his second teaser from his proper 2009 debut is volume 4 of the popular “Rhythm Trax” series. Dam’s expert use of analog synths and old school drum machines with a modern dancefloor aesthetic makes him one of the most exciting artists around. 8 brand new tracks in one of James Pants’ signature hand-drawn jackets… Get it on Rushhour.

Dam Funk – Chocolate
