Hip-Hop | merry choppins and Tim Gent connect on “ib2up”

Posted by on January 27, 2022

“ib2up” is one of the more catchy songs I’ve heard this week. The track is by Nashville based producer/songwriter Tony Esterly aka merry choppins and features a guest verse from local rapper Tim Gent. The high energy electronic and hip-hop hybird release is high energy and as smooth as ever. Check out a quote from MC on the release below and stream their new collaboration above now!

“ib2up started as a hook idea from Tim. I just kept coming back to it after the initial session and tried producing different versions behind it. It went from a hype anthem, to a chill trap beat, and many versions in between. I finally landed on this production on the 6th version of the song when I threw Tim’s acapella over a rap beat I was making, and it finally felt like the song had a home.” – merry choppins

Chill | Solstis Return With Chill Trap Debut Album “Nowhere”

Posted by on February 24, 2018

If I had to use one word to describe Solstis’s brand new album Nowhere, the term would be warm. Each track I feel is almost laced with rising and expanding heat signatures, as if you can feel it in your skin when you listen. Even darker and more forceful sounding tracks like “Open Your Eyes” have a warmth, if not a raging fire, to them. The albums songs wave back and forth, as if the warmth grows to a fire, again and again. This also even mimics the patterns that the songs themselves have, of a build-up, drop, coast, and resolution. A parallel one finds while experiencing the album.

Old, yet familiar emotions creep up on you throughout the album, a unique journey to say the least.

Throughout the year, Aash Mehta has shown us that he can do more than stick to just one genre. Having released originals and remixes spanning from Chill Trap, Progressive House, Sax-House, to Future-Pop, Aash takes on an ambient journey with his new track, “Swimming In The Clouds”. Aash puts it perfectly when he says, “During the holiday season, I always realize how much I have to be thankful for. However, with all the chaos currently surrounding the world – all the violence, hatred, discrimination – we could all use some more peace in our lives.” A beautiful atmospheric vibe combined with a peaceful melody makes “Swimming In The Clouds” a must listen and a must download.

Trap | Clinton Sparks Masterfully Remixes Jack Ü’s Where Are Ü Now

Posted by on April 14, 2015


There’s a million people who have remixed this record. More often than not, the remix sucks and we don’t want to post it. This one though? This one really caught our attention. Clinton Sparks, who’s always one to rock the boat sonically, bucked the big room festival trend for a slowed down chill trap ripper of epic proportions. I’d go on describing the remix but you’ll just have to listen for yourself. Be sure to catch Clinton Sparks at his monthly residency at 10AK in Las Vegas. Get familiar!

Chill, Trap | Adventure Club – Gold ft. Yuna (Candyland & REVOKE Remix)

Posted by on July 22, 2014

Adventure Club’s track “Gold ft. Yuna” has been remixed a zillion times by now, but I liked this trap spin on it. It’s been a while since I’ve heard anyone touch this song. Candyland & Revoke gave it a different energy with chill trap beats, and a higher pitched melody to make it unique. I feel like the song tells a new story with this emotional flip. These two are always pumpin’ out trap bangers, and this remix was not a disappointment. Grab it for free if it’s your style!

As per usual from Tigerblood, this chill trap banger is top quality. Smooth, yet fun, the melody easily dances over a summery trap beat. The distorted vocals top it all off.
