Dutch singer, songwriter, producer, and multi‑instrumentalist Benny Sings releases 'Beat Tape III', his third instalment in the Beat Tape series on Stones Throw Records.

'Beat Tape III' is an assembly of chance sessions and rare collaborations, each track telling a story of its own: a jam with Jacob Jeffries of Vulfpeck in Amsterdam, a demo with Grammy-nominated Leven Kali, or a cut recorded with Kelsey González of The Free Nationals. More than a collection of outtakes, the project is a portrait of the process, the people, and the moments that shape Benny’s music.

'ElectroSoul' is the new album from 2 x GRAMMY Award-nominated producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, DJ Harrison.

This is the Richmond, VA artist’s first truly collaborative record with guests spanning lo-fi hip-hop, rock, jazz, funk and electronic soul.

DJH decided to invite artists to join him on the LP after a sudden health scare in 2024. Close interaction with his tight musical community helped him to heal after unexpected time out.

Featured artists & musicians include Yazmin Lacey, Yaya Bey, Fly Anakin, Pink Siifu, Kiefer, Angélica Garcia, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson & many more. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Super smooth electro soul, luscious poppy production and a host of perfectly placed guests. There are just enough wonky tape effects and crispy MPC saturation to make it all feel like a particularly impressive live lounge show too. Top modern soul.

Lathered in funk; rinsed in soul. The first repress of Mndsgn’s beloved second album for Stones Throw, 'Body Wash', since its original release in 2016.

After the beat-led excursions of his debut album 'Yawn Zen', Mndsgn put together a set of fully realised songs influenced by the likes of early SOLAR records material, Leon Sylvers III, Kashif, and Dave Grusin – artists that Mndsgn says “really embodied that potent feeling in the early 80s boogie/funk/soul/jazz/fusion wave.” At the time of its release, Mndsgn described 'Body Wash' as “a soul record that plays with nostalgic elements in a very dynamic & positive way. Think about it as a box of crayons for you to draw emotions with.”

Houston based R&B artist Peyton is back with a new album. 'Au' is a record rooted in honesty and emotional self-preservation.

On 'Au', Peyton navigates betrayal, confusion, and disappointment, but she never loses sight of joy. 'Au' (the chemical symbol for gold) is a pledge to stay golden in a world that often tries to dull your shine. It’s about taking the high road, even when it would feel easier not to.

'Au' was shaped in tight collaboration with visionary producer Shafiq Husayn (Bilal, Free Nationals, Robert Glasper, Erykah Badu). The album features guests including Brian Alexander Morgan, Didda Joe, Sunni Colon, and co-production and instrumentation from Om’Mas Keith (Frank Ocean, John Legend, Jay-Z).

Fresh off the worldwide success of 'Natural Brown Prom Queen', Sudan Archives levelled up, evolving from a hands-on DIY artist to executive producer of her third album – her most ambitious record to date.

Recorded in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Detroit, 'THE BPM' is this innovative artist’s most club-forward music yet, with Sudan Archives taking a dancefloor-ready approach to her unique brand of violin-infused music.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Sudan Archives' unique brand of rhythmic, violin-led staccatoed soul hits the dancefloor for a souped-up electronic reimagination of her core sound. Bracing and rhythm-led but with breaks of rhythm and modern production tricks abound.

Brazilian-born, LA-based Gabriel da Rosa is a bossa nova and samba artist who puts his own twist on traditional Brazilian music.

Gabriel currently DJs across a variety of venues in Los Angeles and is consistently introducing Brazilian music to wider audiences. ‘É o que a casa oferece’ was made in collaboration with producer Pedro Dom (Rodrigo Amarante, Seu Jorge) and mix engineer Mario C (best known for his work with Beastie Boys).

Gabriel travelled around the world before landing in LA where he met Peanut Butter Wolf. The two bonded over their shared love for Brazilian music, and this led Gabriel to start writing more songs inspired by his heritage.

‘É o que a casa oferece’ is Gabriel’s debut album on Stones Throw. It pays homage to his Brazilian roots, but also brings a contemporary edge to the music Gabriel grew up listening to.

Mild High Club makes a long-awaited comeback with Going Going Gone, the band’s first solo album since 2016’s cult favourite Skiptracing.

An album that speaks directly to the times we live in, Going Going Gone sees Mild High Club blending the psychedelic pop of earlier albums Skiptracing and Timeline with influences from around the world, especially Brazilian avant-garde music from the ‘70s and ‘80s.

Songs from Skiptracing and Timeline have hundreds of millions of streams. Mild High Club recently had viral success with single ‘Homage’ on TikTok, with over 50k videos posted and millions of likes. An active Reddit community dedicated to the band boasts thousands of members.

The band has played at such iconic festivals and venues as Coachella, Le Bataclan in Paris, and Brixton Academy in London. In 2017, they released an album with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Sketches from Brunswick East. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Mild High Club return for their newest outing, mixing the hazy indie guitars and swooning progressions of yesteryear but with a more crystalline, loungy production aesthetic. As wonderfully evocative as their previous outings, but even more beautifully varied.
