Mark Ronson – “UpTown Funk (Rygol Refunk)” | FREE DL
by Kyle Taylor | We’ve yet to feature any music from Denver producer Rygol, that is, under that title. Even if you aren’t familiar with the name, if you’re a frequent Funkadelphia follower, some of the production techniques and sound work might sound faintly familiar. That’s because Rygol is also one half of the more recently … Continue reading

RVLVR – Astral EP
by Kyle Taylor | The warmth of RVLVR‘s new Astral EP is exactly what we need to combat this blanket of snow. The EP’s title track is an engulfing breath of noise, posing a mesmerizing piano progression against barely noticeable ambient synthesizer layers and a violin accompaniment. It’s not long, however, before a pulsating percussion layer escalates the track further. “Astral” manages … Continue reading

Esseks – Drops EP | FREE DL
by Kyle Taylor | If you’re looking for something to totally immerse yourself, forget about those everyday happenings, then Esseks has the answer.

Every murmuring psychedelic tone is emitted with thoughtful precision and a steady precaution that … Continue reading
T.I. – “What You Know (Crizzly Remix)” | FREE DL
by Kyle Taylor | Crizzly‘s back with a fresh new bass attack. The trap explosion certainly seemed like a match made in heaven for the Texas producer’s strongly hip-hop influenced style, but even with a few “re-twerks”, Crizzly isn’t laying off the crunkstep game. Of course the hip-hop flavor is still very much in tact. For … Continue reading
