Really into this one. Post Malone is one of my favorite recent stars to rise to fame, so he get’s remixed a lot in this scene but not like this and it tends to be his bigger hits. Canadian production duo Wet Paint’s take on “I Fall Apart” is a breathe of fresh air, from the trapped out, heavy synthesizer filled chorus drop, to the more calming verses that are almost ambient aside from Malone’s perfect vocal. Wet Paint killed this one, check it out now above!

“Shapes & Colours” is a dope new collab between GXNXVS and Rome Fortune. Being relatively unfamiliar with both acts I did a little research after my first listen through and they’ve both created some really awesome music alongside some huge names (ILoveMakonnen, Vanessa Elisha & What So Not to name a few). I’m always excited to find new artists and these are two of my favorite recent discoveries in a while! Bump “Shapes & Colours” by GXNXVS ft. Rome Fortune above.
