Water Collides - Shigeto X Kyson

Sifting through East African treasures has become quite a thing for us lately. Trans-Mara Express flew the flag for Lebanon and Kenya not too long ago; today Mikael Seifu spoils us with gifts from neighbouring Ethiopia. And oh, what a present it is. Returning to the familiar grounds of Washington D.C. label 1432 R - the imprint that released his debut Yarada Lij EP last year - comes Seifu's next project, The Lost Drum Beat.

His penchant for melding electronic hardware and traditional Ethiopian sounds is as novel as ever here. The title track manoeuvres with all the mystifying, dubstep/garage jerks of a Burial number, yet this is slightly brighter and more bouncy territory. Nocturnal by nature, yet less forlorn and blessed with ghostly percussive intonations.

Catch it on its June 19th release date.

Damon Eliza Palermo - River Drum

Now if you don't love this song then we're not quite sure what to say. The relatively unknown Norwegian duo http://soundcloud.com/smerzno instantly had us with this elegant piece of what we can only conjur up the words to describe as masterful deconstructed pop, with a twist.  Press play on this i-D exclusive and head over to http://i-d.co for more info.

Yorkshire Soul

“Post tenebras, Love” is an exercise in restraint. Though Switzerland’s Yungve, France’s OK Lou and Canada’s Casey MQ all play several instruments, their collaboration is surprisingly minimalist. Still, the effect is overwhelming. The sparse central groove is so subtly infectious that you begin to wonder whether it was in your head before you heard it. When that instrumentation is coupled with the harmonious placement of almost choral keys, each calculated element takes on new depth. “Post tenebras, Love” is what a jazz orchestra would sound like if they spent all of their time listening to Steve Reich and early Aphex Twin.
