DOTWAV - Trap Arnold X C.Z

It's been a minute since Deaf & Ignorant favourite's M|O|D released another of their collaborative projects...but never despair - two of the collective's producers; Trap Arnold and C.Z have just graced us with a ridiculous EP. Comprised of 5 tracks - 3 paired together and one each, the boys kept it varied but stuck to their infectious synth sound with C.Z's 'Ocean View' being one of my favourite tracks of it's kind this year. If you're fiending for some Trap...don't worry - Trap Arnold's 'Cuff' is a beat that needs the likes of Waka and French Montana over it. Cop it below; 

Dvnny Seth - Kitchen

The latest instalment from London via L.A artist Dvnny Seth see's a collaboration between the MC and upcoming Cali producer Drrreams. With the wide variety in production ranging from his first track 'Gunfingers' to the Trap infused collab with M|O|D's C.Z. on 'Gold Drip' and now something more Trippy that doesn't fall short of a thug rave sounding beat - I'm wondering what beats are next for the young artist.

Baauer's Radio 1 Mix

When one of my favourite blogs put me on to 'Internet Lovechild' Baauer, I was almost instantly obsessed with his production. It seems that I wasn't the only one...After an insane amount of Radio Mix features, and blog love, Diplo released the New York producers first track on Mad Decent's sister label; 'Jeffree's'.....Since then it's been pretty clear that it's only a matter of time before he joins the likes of Hudmo, Lunice, Rustie and Diplo himself as a pioneer for the growing bass genre. Leading me to my next point. Radio 1 gave 'Man of the Moment' Diplo his own show  - also asking some of his DJ friends, which have already included the likes of Rustie, Lunice and Flosstradamus. This week see's an hour long each from Dancehall outfit Schlachthofbronx and another from sensation Baauer - dropping everything from Deaf and Ignorant favourites M|O|D, Grime legend D Double E and 2 CHAAAAAAAAAAAINZ.

Dvnny Seth X C.Z (of M|O|D)

Back with another one, London via L.A spitter Dvnny Seth teams up with Deaf and Ignorant favourites M|O|D's very own C.Z for a collaboration. Watch this space for an M|O|D collaboration and check out his page for more on the up and comer. 

M|O|D Pt III

Having dropped their 1st and 2nd collaborative projects in pretty quick succession, the Boston Trap collective have taken some more time before they dropped their 3rd instalment - probably because people really need to catch up and learn just how versatile and talented these dudes are. If you've listened to the crew's previous work, then you'll know that you can expect anything from them. Tracks ranging from instrumentals that sound like Lex Luger or DJ Ill Will on steroids to some more synth inspired sounds that aren't far off of the likes of Baauer, Lunice and Hudmo. If you haven't already, just do yourself a favour and listen to their stuff.

M|O|D Release their 2nd Group Project

Ever since I was put onto M|O|D a couple weeks back, I've been a little obsessed with their work. A massive variation of Trap music; ranging from anything such as (Off The Chain - LiL TExAS or Koola - Rewrote) - Synthed out Hudson Mohawke style tracks to something more deep and thug influenced (Gold Drip - C.Z. or More Loko - Trap Arnold). Their second tape is filled with tracks that you will no doubt be hearing in your nearest rave soon, and beats that you wouldn't be surprised to hear Juicy J or Gucci Mane spitting over.

As if you needed any more persuasion to cop their second project below....it's free. If you like electronic music, do yourself a favour and check it out;

M|O|D treating us to more new music.

Boston trap collective M|O|D released their first collaborative album a few weeks back...and even though we're all still enjoying that....some of the members of the crew have bought out even more music. 'Yung Satan' has taken to his soundcloud uploading two new refixes in the past week or so, while Rewrote, another of the collective has uploaded a teaser clip of an amazing track named 'Koola'. 


As if those three pieces aren't enough, LiL TExAS has also taken to his soundcloud and bandcamp pages to unleash two absolute bangers. The first track; 'Miss Do Right' is a trapped out Juke track with the type of sampling that Hudmo would be proud of, and to be fair 'Off The Chain' is as infectious and face scrunching as it gets for me. I'ts not surprising that it's got nearly 2,000 plays in 4 days on Soundcloud and love from the U.K's very own 'Star Slinger'. Rightly so, they're getting some support behind them now - and with the pace of their releases and the quality of some of them it's safe to say they're on the come up...

M|O|D - The new wave of Trap

Thanks once again to Live For The Funk for this one. The Trap sound has been back on the rise thanks to rappers like Gucci Mane, Juicy J and Waka.....but there are some great producers working away in the scene like Flosstradamus. There's even a more discrete side to Trap music - looking at artists like Lunice and Hudson Mohawke, it's clear to see there is a trap element in their some of their minimal Hip Hop production. Artists like Hudmo, Lunice and Rustie are paving the way whilst heavily influencing artists like my new favourite trap collective M|O|D. 


The group of 5 producers and DJ's have a variation of tracks floating around their soundcloud's and websites - ranging from heavy Hip Hop beats that you could easily imagine Waka Flocka over.....to harmonious synth-ey Trap that's not far from a modern day ghetto Mario 64 soundtrack. Listen to their debut self entitled project below;
