Listen: The Heavytrackerz – ‘Lights’ (ft Shola Ama)

Acclaimed UK duo The Heavytrackerz have released their anticipated debut album Odyssey: A Musical Journey.

Featuring a wealth of collaborations ranging from the likes of Big Narstie to Lethal B, Ghetts, JME, P Money and more, there’s clearly a lot packed into the 18-song collection. However one standout lies with a feature from Shola Ama on Lights, a song which focuses as a solid 2017 rework of The Streets’ infamous Blinded By The Lights.

The track’s pretty big by and large, so grab a listen below – you can also hear Odyssey: A Musical Journey in full over on Apple Music too:

Listen: Lana Del Rey – ‘Summer Bummer’ (Snakehips Remix) [feat. A$AP Rocky & Playboi Carti]

After sharing BloodPop’s edit of Lust For Life earlier today, Lana Del Rey continues to invite more to remix her latest project’s work, this time inviting our own Snakehips for a woozy rework of Summer Bummer.

The Snakehips boys made their initial mark several years back with their own airy future take on hip-hop; their Summer Bummer remix continues that theme entirely. Here we see Lana’s vocals morphed toward a more soulful direction, whilst the sonics themselves have all the earmarks of Snakehips – faint blips over a modest, yet subtle melody.

Listen: Bicep – ‘Vale’

Belfast-born, London-based duo Bicep have shared a further glimpse into their future-laced vision of electronica with Vale, dropping timely ahead of next week’s release of their self-titled debut album.

As atmospheric as it is sprawling; Bicep deliver an aura of what could simply be described as ‘atmospheric tension’ with this one; whilst predecessor Glue may have thrown us straight back into 90s rave culture, Vale consequently brings us forward into post-3am mode. Airy yet in many respects, somewhat urgent.

This is true bliss. Bump it below:
