Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip fame with a slow, lush cover of New Jersey singer Mike Bones last single “What I Have Left”. The track will be featured as a B-side on Bones’ next single release “Today The World Is Worthy Of My Loathing” which will be out May 11th on Vice Records. The cover version is perfectly suited for slow days like today.

Riz MC
Sunday, November 30th, 2008Riz MC is an up and coming UK talent (also an aspiring actor), coming from a London pirate background he’s starting to get recognized by word of mouth + through some amazing performances. His debut single “Post 9/11 Blues” was banned from the airwaves in UK but now he’s ready to go big with current single “Radar” that gives us a crunchy, hypnotic beat and shows us what he’s about. We got his cover of the track “Eastern Jam”, originally done by dubstep duo Chase & Status.
