Single You Out: Premrock – Lens (ft. Chris Quelle)

Premrock once again smites convention with his latest Quelle Chris produced track, Lens.   The rhythm has a jazz type vibe to it, with a lot of cymbal being featured instead of relying on the snare.  It sounds much like, Premrock creates his own rhythm and cadence that the beat follows, instead of vice versa.

It’s just another example of what makes Premrock unique.  His album, A Clean, Well-Lighted Place, will grace us on April 15th.

Single You Out: Marshall Sinclaire – Sunroof Ceiling Window (ft. Frank Ramz and Devine Carama)

This new song, from new artist, Marshall Sinclair, is nothing short of amazing.   The production from Taavi Haapla is beautiful.  I love the instrument combinations used over the beat.  It gives you this easy going vibe.  The emcees on this cut all have unique and diverse styles lending themselves to incredible creativity.  It features a couple of my favorite and under-heralded emcees in Frank Ramz and Devine Carama. We are all on notice now as Marshall Sinclair readies his new project, Fathom, which as of yet, has no date.

Single You Out: Fel Sweetenberg – The Name Itself (prod. by DJ Brans)

It’s been a loooong minute since I have heard new music from Fel Sweetenberg, but I loved his last album,  The Sophmore Jinx.  It was one of the first albums I reviewed back in 2010.   This track make it appear that he took no days off as it’s just as, if not better, than his earlier material.  Some of that credit probably needs to be given to boom bap specialist, DJ Brans for lacing that beat.
