At the end of last year I had a lot of fun playing some last minute fundraisers and trying out some new music. As there will be no parties for a while, I thought I’d restart the playlist and share some of what I’ve been playing out and at home, new & old.

Self: Love

When Radio 1’s Danny Howard brought his Lockdown Linkup series to the world in 2020, he set about teaming up the world’s leading dance producers for a collection of collaborations. Among those was ‘Whisper’, the product of long-time friend of Defected Dennis Ferrer and South London trio Disciples, who made a powerful and perhaps unexpected transatlantic partnership. Quickly catching the attention of Simon Dunmore, ‘Whisper’ was signed to Defected, who now commission red-hot remixes from heavy hitters of the house scene. Chicago’s man-of-the-moment John Summit takes on the assignment with ease, injecting the record with a hefty dose of club muscle that moves away from the ethereal sound of the original. A record that would comfortably sit in the Windy City star’s high-energy DJ sets, there is no doubt this mix will take this lockdown heater into its next phase, as dancefloors reopen across the globe.

Every so often, there is a record that comes around that immediately demands its presence and instantly gets stuck in your head upon first listen. You begin to sing the lyrics and suddenly find yourself whistling, humming, and shouting the tune without even thinking about it during your day-to-day. And just like that, you're hooked! An anthem is born.

We'll in the case of our label boss' DJ Susan's highly anticipated single "Secrets' this has certainly proved to be one of those records. Leading with its highly mesmerizing vocal hook, Susan has captivated a global audience since teasing this record only a few short months ago.

Always requested but never identified, Secrets has been a peak track of interest amongst the producer community and beyond this year and now, it's finally here; right on the home turf at Hood Politics.

Enjoy

LA-based music company, Godmode, is known for taking way-left artists and bringing them slightly more to the center.  After breaking Shamir and Yaeji, the label is back with their latest signing, Channel Tres. Channel grew up in the Compton neighborhood of Los Angeles, and his music is a clear representation of the surly attitude of West Coast rap reimagined with the stylings of Detroit house. Fans of Galcher Lustwerk would be wise to check out this project. Similar to the NYC legend, Channel’s voice is effortlessly deep, expertly processed, and a perfect compliment to his deep, sultry instrumentals.

“Top Down” oozes swagger. While a Paranoid London-esque acid bassline rips through ethereal pads, Channel croons, “bet you ain't never heard shit like this from the block before.” He’s not completely wrong. While he’s not the first to champion a sound like this, he certainly has few modern peers. Aside from how dope the song is, I really appreciate the emphasis he places on individuality as an artist. He says, “never let the scene choose you. Never met a man this cool.” For me, it’s essential for a musician to be original, to believe in the uniqueness of their music, and to not conform to the standards set by a saturated scene. Going forward, I hope Channel sticks to his words. It’s not everyday you hear a debut this polished and full of a variety of influences. I’ll be waiting to hear these tunes at my NYC after-hours, but until then, I’m about to cut the top off my Saturn and slow-ride through Brooklyn. Here’s your invite.

Channel Tres’ self-titled debut is out now.
