We are about to release Samuel Truth's 'After Ours' Ep very soon, so we thought it will be a nice gesture to offer the 1st single off the Ep for free download, and this is only limited for a week only. 'Spotlight' features the silky vocals of Gibby Harris and has been on rotation at the HQ for a while already, so we hope you enjoy this song as much as we do.

Samuel Truth - Spotlight ft. Gibby Harris | 'After Ours' Ep | DTW 25

SAMUEL TRUTH -  AFTER OURS EP

CAT NO : DTW 25

Genre : Bass, Ambient, Trap, Experimental, Acoustic, Beats

Troy Samuela aka Samuel Truth from Auckland New Zealand has grown to become a household name on Darker Than Wax. Though a relatively recent addition, the head bops of both appreciation and approval from listeners reassures us that this is a keeper. With a sturdy history in rock and metal bands in his fundamental years, the energy and diversity in his musicianship makes him one of the most kinetic artists of his generation. It was only while attending college at Music and Audio Institute of New Zealand (MAINZ) where he studied Audio Engineering and Music Production, that he unearthed his love for hiphop and beats – through the help and recommendation of his friends. 
After graduation, his fascination with hiphop progressed – fresh out of MAINZ and equipped with production skills, he has since been relentlessly utilising his midi keyboard, and steadily pursuing his sound, one which has been growing fondly on Darker Than Wax. 
“After Ours” is ethereal, dreamy and slightly electrifying – he maintains his composure a like stillness in the dark – it is calm, and sometimes unsettling. Tracks like “After Hours” and “Last Call”, which border on the indie, post-rock scape, are incredibly emotive, and also demonstrate his ingenuity in his craft. “Medusa” and “Nobody Knows” takes on a more conventional approach in easy melodics and beats. 
Samuel Truth has stated Hudson Mohawke, Tnght, George Benson, Steve Vai, and Black Hippy as his influences –  it is clear from his potency, that he is on his way of the path of his great idols.

Recommended Listening: Iowa, US based Producer & DJ, Cory J. recently dropped the single "shelooksfly" utilizing the playful vocals of 90's Rapper, Skee-Lo. Soulful Bossa Nova sounds engulf the instrumental's melody, while the drums provide a rhythmic backdrop. The beatsmith cites influences from J Dilla to Pete Rock, while keeping musicians like Wes Montegomery and James Brown in rotation when looking for inspiration. He currently DJ's and handles production duties within his group, Strangers Of Necessity (S.O.N.). Check out some of the links below for more info on Cory's music:

Time flies by so fast, it's already been a year since that Higashi-Nihon Earthquake that attacked my homeland. Natural disasters, human disasters, wars, economic declines, racism,...so many tragic realities happening everyday across the planet.DJ KRUSH will be sending messages of requiem in 2 consecutive months, to all the people giving all they got to survive NOW. "The Black Rain (Kuroi Ame)" and "The Pale Rain (Aoi Ame).""The Black Rain" which is to be the 6th of the serial release depicts the duality of human beings, the tears shed from endless sorrow and anger, and on the contrary, the strength to live through all such emotions. And it will be followed up by the 7th of the series, "The Pale Rain," which depicts the thawing and breathing of lives after surviving through all difficulties. The 2 sound-soul radiated in a strictly original manner. Never mind the bollocks, all it matters is to deliver something to people's hearts...

母国日本を襲った東日本大震災から早１年。天災、人災、紛争、経済破綻、差別などなど、世界中で日々起こり続ける様々な現実。２か月に渡り、現在(いま) を必至に生きるすべての人に送る DJ KRUSH なりの鎮魂のメッセージ。本シリーズ第六弾となる『黒い雨』では、止まない哀しみや怒りの涙と、反面それらを乗り越えて必至に生きていく強さ、両局面にある人間の性を表現。次作、第七弾の『蒼い雨』では、困難を乗り越えた先にある心の雪解けと伊吹を表現。独自の世界感で放つ２つの音魂。難しい事は抜きにして、人々の心に何かが残ってくれたら...。

DJ KRUSH 20th Anniversary Project "Monthly Single Series" #8 (released on Apr 2012)

2011年9月よりスタートした本シリーズもとうとう第８弾。現在世界各地で開催中の２０周年ワールドツアーを見据えて書き下ろされ、各公演でのフロアの反応を踏まえ、幾度もの手直しを経てようやく１つの音魂に！今回のツアー・セットの中でも反響の高い１曲で、継続的な問合せも相次ぐ話題作がいよいよ登場する。フロア映えするシンプルな構成の中にも、随所で体感できる繊細 且つ 奥深いDJ KRUSHならではの世界感を是非ご体感あれ。

It's already been the 8th of the monthly series since its launch in September 2011. Originally made as a part of the live set for the current 20th anniversary world tour, it's been rearranged and refined multiple times reflecting the reactions of the audiences around the world, it finally came together as a complete tune. It's one of the hardest head-knodder of his current live set, and what everyone desperately awaited and inquired to be released. Experience the simple yet abstractly sensitive & in-depth world of DJ KRUSH in this floor bomber.

DJ KRUSH 20th Anniversary Project "Monthly Single Series" #10 (Available on 27th June'12) 

The monthly single release cuts that commenced last September as a project commemorating the 20th anniversary of KRUSH’s solo career, unlike his strictly conceptual albums, is a series of tunes, each with its own concept, and gives a freedom to go for various looks and flavas that push boundaries further out in depicting his world of sounds even more precisely. And here comes the last shot of this series, a tune that’s been integrated into his live set a lot, creating a buzz amongst his fans around the globe. It’s quite fast in tempo compared to other KRUSH tunes, but has those distinctive “in-between spaces,” “phatness,” “roughness,” and “depth” co-existing to complete his world & wrap up this phase of the project.

So this series sees its end after 10 tunes (10 long months), and needless to say, the countdown to the long-long awaited new album has begun (the album will basically be totally different from the tunes in this serial project). Details tba. A new chapter begins, and you are far from leaving your eyes off of DJKRUSH. 

ソロ活動２０周年プロジェクトとして、昨年９月よりスタートしたマンスリー・シングル・シリーズ。アルバムの様に大きなテーマに基づいての曲構成ではなく、それぞれの曲ごとに単体のコンセプトを持ち合わせ、曲調やカラーなども曲毎に良い意味で自由にまとめあげることにより、現在のDJ KRUSHの様々な世界感を余すことなく提示してきたこの企画もいよいよ完結を迎える。本シリーズの最後を飾るのは、ここ数年、高い確立でプレイリストにも組み込まれ、各所で問合せや反響の大きな１曲。KRUSH作品の中では比較的アップテンポな曲調だが、独特の"間"や"厚み"、"荒さ"、"深み"が同居するKRUSHならではの世界感が詰まった作品となった。

本作を含めて１０曲(１０カ月)に渡り続いてきた本シリーズもこれにて完結を迎え、いよいよ待望のソロアルバム(基本的には本シリーズ楽曲陣とは全く違う内容を予定)へのカウントダウンが始まった。詳しい情報は随時発表される予定。新たな章の幕開けとともに、まだまだDJ KRUSHから目が離せない。

V A V L T 001: Sanctuary Remix EP

What once was considered a clandestine cave nuzzled in the shadows of Atlanta's W hotel, finally comes to light as Atlanta's home for forward thinking music and culture. Like the VAVLT BOYZ mix tape series, VAVLT is the brain child of dj/producers Heroes x Villains and BLKKMORRIS . The duo have teamed together to create a collective of like minded forward thinking musicians including long time collaborators Ira G & NEVR of BOSCO band, Respire , R______P, and new comers HYDRABADD. 

For their first official release off of VAVLT, the team has rallied behind HYDRABADD to release a remix EP of the duos noxious single Sanctuary featuring vocalist Abra. Label boss Heroes x Villains and main stays Ira G & NEVR will lead the charge on the EP enlisting help from the ever mysterious Druid Cloak of Symbols Recordings, ATL Native Taste Tester, TREE KEEPER of Bohemian Hype Cult, and rap duo Major 118. Look forward to hearing six outstanding reworks of an already outstanding track.
