DopEarCandy: DJ Mehdi // Loukoms


Busy P posts the late DJ Mehdi's tribute to J. Dilla.
R.I.P. DJ Mehdi.

Back in 2006, Dj Mehdi's hommage to Dilla
we did something like 200 promo CDs fro friends
I think it's time for this music to be shared and enjoyed by all of us
I still can't believe what's happening, so I press play and I listen to my best friend's music.
P.
"LOUKOUMS"
non-produced and un-mixed by Dj Mehdi, NSI.
Jay Dee rest in peace
Based on the DONUTS album concept, these are demos, out-takes and unreleased gems from various records I worked on before and during the making of LUCKY BOY, my next album.
Stuff comes from MEGALOPOLIS, 113 DEGRES and SHEITAN soundtrack mainly, but some is older too.
Hope you enjoy these rough mixes and un-polished sounds, as I pay hommage to "one of the greatest minds to ever make beats" :
Mr James Yancey, better known as JAY DEE, also know as DILLA.
Released by: Ed Banger Records
Release date: Jan 1, 2006

DopEarCandy: DropxLife // AllxLegends


OVOXO are pointing their fingers to another Toronto native who goes by "DropxLife." He makes a damn good first impression with his instrumental-tape, AllxLegends, and creates an ambient atmosphere with samples from Portishead, and Thievery Corporation. Straight up, this is that chill, "let me take a drive around the city at night with my thoughts to myself," lounge music type vibe. Check out DropxLife's Youtube and hit the download link below.

DopEarCandy: The Weeknd // The Noise EP

Unofficial, I'm sure, but fuck it.
Any material by Mr. Tesfaye is cool with me.
This is what the Lonny Breaux Collection
was to Frank Ocean is to The Weeknd,
but obviously on a much smaller scale.
I assume The Noise is team Abel's
pre-The Weeknd alias, or that
The Noise is Abel + a different
production team.
