Rhye – Open (Ryan Hemsworth Remix)

When I first got wind of this rework, my brain exploded a little. You see, I’ve covered both Rhye and Ryan Hemsworth extensively here on TMN: the former’s sultry R&B/Sade-like textures make me melt while the latter’s woozy, kinetic productions never seem to let me down. And now you’re telling me that they’ve joined forces and made a glowing, soulful remix of “Open”? The original version was enough to blow my mind. My two-word response: Hell Yes. Listen in via the video above or mp3 stream below.

Rhye’s highly anticipated debut LP, Woman, drops March 5th via Loma Vista.

[Valentine’s Playlist] The Love Trap

Happy Valentine’s Day Ninjas. In the spirit of the season we’ve put together a playlist of some of the best romantic trap music we could find. Much like Dubstep, Trap as a genre already has more sub-genres than you can think of. One of these sub-genres that has been making some waves is Love Trap. This playlist is full of names you might already be familiar with like eSenTRIK and Hucci, while others are names you should definitely familiarize yourself with like Kastle and Kaytradana. The first half of the playlist moves through some trill, lyricly infused romance before the second half gets jazzy, using saxophones over the trap or juke beats.

Ryan Hemsworth – An Overture Might Help Me Stop Thinking About You

Ryan Hemsworth, known primarily for his well executed and minimalist influenced hip/hop productions, is back an absolute gem to kickstart the new year. Just after his release of ‘BasedWolrd’ on January 2nd of 2013, to which he gave away for free, the Canadian producer experiments once more with an emotional filled instrumentational track titled ‘An Overture Might Help Me Stop Thinking About You’. While it lacks the grandeur of its predecessor ‘BasedWolrd’, he remains consistent at layering intricate sounds to form one smooth and coherent environment of harmony.

‘An Overture Might Help Me Stop Thinking About You’ comes from a recent Friends of Friends (FoF) Compilation, an eclectic 7-track compilation “exploring all aspects of the electronic soundscape with elements of wintry vibes”.

[Electronic] Ryan Hemsworth – BasedWorld

Ryan Hemsworth had a huge 2012, but he’s far from done yet. Only a few days into the new year and he’s dropped another banger. “BasedWorld” is eerie, dark, and yet so propulsive and addictive. It’s like a beautiful monster; you can’t look away. Check it out below:

[R&B] Mikky Ekko – Pull Me Down (Ryan Hemsworth Remix)

Without even dropping a full-length, Mikky Ekko looks to be one of the most promising new artists of 2012-2013. Much of the buzz has to do with “Pull Me Down,” a silky R&B-infused pop song that could easily hold its own against most radio hits. If there’s more where that came from, the praise will certainly continue to pour in. While we wait for new material, we can vibe to this Ryan Hemsworth remix. The producer extraordinaire, who came and conquered 2012, looks at the anxious side of love by adding some edgy and twitchy elements, making the original less of a smooth, wooing ballad and more of an urgent, hungry plea.
