ALLOY 031

Cleveland based electronic producer and Alloy veteran Broken Keys returns with his 'Solitude' EP. Following a foot injury that caused him to be stuck in the house for several weeks, Broken Keys knocked out dozens of new tracks, ultimately leading to the creation of this EP.

As he continues to expand musically, Broken Keys manages to harness a consistent aesthetic of introspective yet club ready tunes. Solitude is the next step in this musical evolution.

Broken Keys - In Other Words

Broken Keys - Power Forward

Following his recent all vinyl ALLOY.FM 007 Mix, A/V returns with a new single for free download, "El or Two". This track sounds like something you would play at a 4th of July cookout in 1986, tackling the ever-relevant subject matter of summer love.

Urbindex - Make It Right

Urbindex - Lost & Found

Cleveland producer A/V returns with "LxxPS Vol. 2", a stellar half-hour collection of sample-pastiche grooves and dusty, hypnotic funk loops.

A/V - LxxPS Vol. 2

GHOST NOISES started in Cleveland, OH as a no-frills solo rap act - crate-digging sampler, witty MC.  However, the no-genre 'sample-anything' approach to hip-hop production made popular in the catalogs of J Dilla & Madlib bled into the project's ethos - from beat selection to vocal delivery, nothing was out of bounds, as long as it sounded good. 

A deviant streak, steeped in decades of Northeast Ohio music tradition, peppers sharp rhymes about mental isolation and societal hypocrisy, delivered as dark comedy over minimal, bass-heavy production. The latest EP from Ghost Noises, "Zen Archer", captures recent recordings within the ALLOY-X collective, with labelmates Hokes and Urbindex splitting the production duties. After a year that's included collaborations with Ohio DIY legend Obnox, appearances at NYFW for the Cleveland-based RVAH brand and a constant presence in the city's underground electronic scene, it makes perfect sense that Cleveland would produce hip-hop that sounds like Ghost Noises.
