Kanye West to bring Sunday Service to Coachella 2019

Kanye West has confirmed plans to bring his weekly Sunday Service session to Coachella next month.

Set to grace the California desert on Coachella’s second weekend, Kanye will play a poignant slot on Easter Sunday (21st April) where he’ll kick off the day at sunrise alongside his gospel choir.

Announcing the news onboard a flight with the choir, Yeezy said “We just booked another show — we will be doing Sunday Service, sunrise at Coachella”. Coachella have since confirmed the news via their official Instagram, which you can watch below.

Kanye was originally booked headline this year’s event, but cancelled his appearance apparently due to issues resulting from his stage design requirements.

Hear Diplo’s two huge dance-floor cuts, ‘Hold You Tight’ & ‘Bubble Up’

0

Diplo is back in solo-mode with two absolute screamers,’Hold You Tight’ & ‘Bubble Up’. The tracks, released on his own Mad Decent imprint, hear the mega-producer revert back to creating dancefloor-ready house bangers after some time away focusing on his LSD and Silk City side-projects.

‘Hold You Tight’, a deep and groovy number with emotive chord progressions, hears Diplo drop a nifty UKG throwback sample, courtesy of KP & Envyi’s iconic classic ‘Swing My Way’. Meanwhile, ‘Bubble Up’ on the flip-side, is a stripped-back percussive number with an unbelievably hefty, groove-laden bass line. Panned beats wrap themselves around a raw, round bottom end, alongside tweaky vocals and light synth work. This track is all about the communication between the bass and percussion, and it works perfectly bound to get you moving on the floor.

Listen to both cuts below:

Hear Tobtok & Adam Griffin’s new club-stormer, ‘The Sting’

Perfect Havoc label boss Adam Griffin has teamed up with Tobtok on this brilliantly-worked club monster ‘The Sting’.

Oozing with energy – from the way it builds through shuffled beats, beautifully laid down arpeggiated lines and strong vocal sampling – ‘The Sting’ also comes complete with a ruthlessly-bouncing bassline alongside some rolling chords, all pointing toward a killer breakdown.

This one’s as feel-good as they come; listen below:

Maverick Sabre has followed up last week’s release of his new album ‘When I Wake Up‘ with the visual for one of the record’s standout tracks, ‘Glory’.

Shot between the stunning Wicklow mountains and the high-rise landscapes of Darndale and Ballymun, the video unpicks the thoughts, feelings, emotions and escapisms of a tight-knit community of young men.

Shot by Hector Dockrill, the new 7-minute video features some of the young men who previously appeared in ‘DRIFTING’ – also directed by Hector – and is another stunning piece of storytelling which passionately articulates the new record.
