The Booty Bakery crew is back with a second hodgepodge volume of Booty Based Mob, showcasing in compilation form the inventive sounds that the Montreal crew/party has taken a liking to and are represented sonically by. For starters, enjoy previously unheard vibrations from likes of Ryan Hemsworth, Jaw Jam, Elaquent, and residents Phil Sparks, Hesk, and Compton Chic. But also, as expected, promising new names are showcased such as KwikFiks and Jesse Slater, who come through with appeasing UK sounds and juke tendencies respectively. The seventeen tracks add up to something a little head spinning (in a good way) as they appeal to what seems like every relevant bass tangent of today, but I guess that’s saying something about MTL and its increasing relevancy in electronic music. Check out the standouts below; download Volume 2 in its entirety here.
The latest manipulation of a Lana Del Rey original comes from the Halifax-based Ryan Hemsworth. As an artist virtually born of 2011 that hasn’t touched the ground since his popular take-off, it seems Hemsworth has garnered the enjoyablity of listeners centered around pop by remixing big names like LDR, even though personally I think his best work remains in his original production of faded hip-hop/R&B tracks. I guess that line is blurred when you take into account the skittering hi hats and layers of different charactered synth on his remix of “Summertime Sadness”. Maybe I should have stopped at “good”.
By Saturday of every week, I will have compiled a bunch of songs/videos that weren’t featured as single blog posts during the previous 6 days and post them as one Weekly Collection. Just because I do speak on individual works regularly doesn’t mean there isn’t material I think you definitely should here.
Here is the newest remix from the Halifax-based Ryan Hemsworth. This guy cannon balled into 2011 and has been making big waves since. I know that it might seem insincere to say that Hemsworth’s material is of the most unique out there currently considering how bottomless the electronic scene is getting, but it is. The list of rappers that he has worked with, remixed, and plans to work with in the future should be telltale of his unique and nonspecific-genre approach to production. His beats cater to both Hip-Hop/RnB and Electronic fans, I can say because I am both. For “88MPH”, I had to check out the original from Exeter (Toronto) (which is sometimes how it goes) which turned out to be on par with Hemsworth’s version. It has more soulful, lighter vibes stemming from the synth melody which Hemsworth twists along with a faster BPM. You can see all of this for yourself.
