New Track: Kinkajou – Miss

Following the release of their debut EP, Do You Feel Electric? in December, electronic-rock duo MISS are back into the spotlight – and let me tell you – this time around, they’re a force to be reckoned with.

Unlike for delicately dark compositions featured in their four-track set, the explosive offering makes way for the gritty, low-down funky guitar riffs, flirting with the wayward drums, which creates a too-cool-for-school, 70s vibe. If you have a moment, boost your day and listen to the London-based alternative rockers at work.

EP Review: When You Realise People Are Not One Dimensional – Model 86

If you’re a regular on NEW LEASE MUSIC, you’ve probably came across MODEL 86‘s off-the-wall single, Hold On, forming part of his latest five-track EP, When You Realise People Are Not One Dimensional.

Released earlier this month, the man behind the project, Matthew James Wilcock goes all out and unleashed some insanely ingenious fusions of alternative hip-hop, R&B, jazz and electronica with tampered vocals giving each set a toe-curling lick. You’re forgiven if you think the EP sound bonkers – but trust me on this one – it’s as smooth as a Sade classic (well, kind of).

New Track: Pretend – Sayso (ft. Bibi Ross)

Since her last appearance on NEW LEASE MUSIC, SAYSO has really stepped up her game. The LA-based hip-hop upriser once again teamed up with portuguese singer/songwriter Bibi Ross for the super slick single, Pretend, the first release from her sophomore mixtape, Bixby Beach  dropping later in the year.

Last year, the two have collaborated on the female emcee’s single Cruisin’ Ruff.

Pretend is now available on iTunes. For now, check out the single – not to be missed!

New Track: Indigo – Dizzy Rambunctious

Dizzy Rambunctious Indigo

I don’t usually feature instrumental tracks on NEW LEASE MUSIC, but I reckon this smooth hip-hop/trap/jazz combo will make your hump day just a tad more bearable.

The person behind this track, entitled Indigo, is 21-year-old producer DIZZY RAMBUNCTIOUS from North Bergen, New Jersey.

If you’re feeling this track, it’s well worth heading over to his SoundCloud profile for more dreamy bangers.
