Azealia Banks x Hudson Mowhawke - Jumanji

Azealia Banks can rap but shines with good production and Hudson Mowhawke can produce a foot stomping beat crying for a flow. Here is some harmony. The track is also co-produced by Nick Hook. How long till the radio gets this one? Stream and/or download below.

Why Nicolas Jaar is the Greatest Composer of Our Time

Yours Truly brings us 9 minutes of sonic and visual orgasm presenting Nicolas Jaar and co. performing "Why Didn't You Save Me" from his 2011 EP.  Listen with headphones to ensure you hear every little sound, speaking to Jaar's sentiment spoken at the start of the video.  Perhaps I'm obsessed but no one comes close to this guy's ability to get me excited about music in today's age of Pitchfork laden bias coupled with momentary and fleeting leans toward the hip.
