It’s been a while since we heard from Steve James, but man are we glad that he’s back! Teaming up with Jasmine Thompson, the two give us a brilliant take on The Weeknd’s “Earned It”. Wavering from James’s usual style (but in the best way), this cover still contains the Pittsburg producer’s signature melodic elements but contains a more ambient and atmospheric vibe. His production, combined with Jasmine Thompson’s beautiful vocals do The Weeknd’s masterpiece justice. This one is a free download, so check it out now and grab it before Soundcloud has their way with it!

Posted by APM on October 1, 2015
If you’re on Soundcloud as often as I am, you’ve definitely heard of Cignature.

So who is he? She? I have a few theories of my own but I’ll let you listen to Cignature’s newest remix – a beautifully melodic progressive house take on Ryn Weaver’s “OctaHate” – and decide for yourself.

HiFadility dropped another exciting edit, an isolation of Lauryn Hill’s vocals from The Fugee’s “Ready or Not” track with a very luxurious hip-hop/world instrument electronic sound. What really makes this track worth supporting is the thoughtfulness involved in the arrangement of quality sounds, and the attention used in choosing the vocal arrangement. HiFadility is part of a movement that is bringing consciousness back into popular culture.
HiFadility, whose tagline is “peace, love and prosperity”, seems to ask for intention and awareness out of life that he also likes to deliver within his music, allowing him to create really intricate and interesting pieces. Before releasing this track, he asked himself the question of why he decides to make, release and engage in the music industry. He replied with the idea of: “What does make creating music worth the while is the mystery.” Later that night, at the release of the Lauryn Hill track, he simply posted an infinity sign, “?”, indicating the infinite nature of our being and sound, the thrilling mystery of music, and how it magically touches our soul.
The ability to make chill bangers, songs that are laid back but still get you pumped up, is pretty unique, so make sure to check out this track, it’s just in time for the summer feels. HiFadility will be releasing more videos and tracks in relation to this concept project, The Queens EP, over the duration of the summer, so be sure to follow HiFadility on his social media, soundcloud, tumblr, twitter, for more gems.
