Soundcloud Sessions: Booda French and Micall Parknsun, Mecca:83, Billy Danze (M.O.P.) and more!

A collection of some of the best and brightest, from hip hop to house

Starting with hip hop from Booda French and Micall Parknsun, and ending with rock from Gentlemans Pistols (a bonus demo cut from my own Monkey Mind alter ego doesn't count).

It's been a tough 2016 for everyone I think; and this is reflected throughout this session. I'd like to take the time out to thank you all for your support this year and as ever, until next time, enjoy.

#TNBCatchUP: The New Beatmaker takes some time out a few times a year; 'TNBCatchUp' takes a look back at projects which came out during such an hiatus which otherwise would have been featured at the time of release.

Lanzo Interview: Bringing Something Different to the Table

Regular readers know that I'm partial to Lanzo's trippy cocktail of jazzy samples, rugged drums, warm bass lines and quirky humour. His 2012 debut EP 'Suspension of Consciousness' is a favourite of mine. A major part of Chicago's beat scene, Lanzo works at a prodigious rate: knocking out solo tracks and collaborations with pals including Norman and his Young Ho Collective brethren.
