A four-track EP, “Should Have Seen It Coming” opens with the lead title track, an emotion-drenched vocal cut pairing poignant breakdowns with the soaring vocals of AETHO.

NEZ shares a new remix of ‘Wild Youngster’ by Jamie Jones

The multi-faceted NEZ shares a new remix by legendary DJ and dance producer Jamie Jones. Jones’ “Wobble Remix” of “Wild Youngster” is a club-inflected take on NEZ’s intoxicating house-inspired anthem that features his longtime collaborator ScHoolboy Q.

The remix is the latest entry in Jones‘ storied career, which features collaborations with Nicole Moudaber (“Pepper Shake“), Hot Since 82 and Boy George (Recovery), and Alan Fitzpatrick (“Fairytale Frequency“), as well as his seminal remixes of Bob Moses, Teddy Pendergrass and Skream. The remix is a fitting coronation for the single that has grown steadily since its initial release and draws upon NEZ‘ childhood growing up on Chicago house music.

NEZ has been an unsung hero of the music industry for the past decade who first stepped out as a solo artist when “Wild Youngster” was originally released in January 2020. Prior to that, his profile steadily rose as part of the esteemed production duo, Nez and Rio.

NEZ

They first became known for their work with ScHoolboy Q, A$AP Rocky, Chance The Rapper, Wale and many others, which includes hits like ScHoolboy Q‘s “Man of the Year” and ASAP Rocky‘s “Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2“. In 2015, NEZ was Grammy-nominated for “Best Rap Album,” for his work on ScHoolboy Q‘s Oxymoron.

Born in West Lafayette, Indiana, NEZ‘s musical style mirrors the duality he saw growing up in Chicago. Witnessing the birth of House music and seeing it transform through Black experimentation, he incorporates the same genre-defying styles that brought the Hip-Hop community further into the dance world.

Listen to the remix below.

Matisse & Sadko are back on STMPD RCRDS with ‘Meant To Be’

DJ and producer duo Matisse & Sadko are back on STMPD RCRDS with ‘Meant To Be’. The original demo for the track was created four years ago, inspired by the love for French electronic music of the late 90s.

An instrumental version could already be heard during their Tomorrowland set in 2018. First thinking it should be an instrumental release, they later decided to add vocals.

Finding a proper vocalist proved to be quite the challenge until they came across Erik Grahn, who turned an EDM demo into a radio-friendly track with a romantic vibe.

Martin Garrix first aired the track, dropping it as his intro ID during his set for the virtual Tomorrowland event during New Years Eve. Soon after, the track was circulating around the dance music community, who will surely be happy they can finally hear the track in its entirety now.

Listen to the track below.
