SOUPAPE...

Out today via First Word is Soupape, the latest EP from French electronic duo Souleance (Soulist + Fulgeance). Some good stuff on here, especially "Passarinho". Peep the audio after the break.

STUSSY x NIKE MYSTO ALL COURT MID...

Nice collabo between Stussy and NSW. A little loud, but clean nonetheless.

CARNIVAL...

Early this week we announced the arrival of the Tourist EP from Seams. Here is "Carnival", the first official video from the release.

I L U...

New video from dream-pop outfit School of Seven Bells. This is "I L U" from the excellent Disconnect from Desire.

TOURIST...

Also out this week courtesy of Pictures Music is Tourist, the new EP from Seams. The EP is a brilliant blend of found sounds, gentle percussion and melodic soundscapes. If you're a fan of Four Tet (as you should be) you'll like this one a lot.

MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY...

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, the new album from the incomparable KanYe West arrived today and I must say I'm impressed.

The production on the album is top-notch (even by Yeezy standards) and the vocals throughout are spot on with appearances from Jay-Z, KiD CuDi, The RZA, Raekwon, Nicki Minaj, Pusha T, Rick Ross, John Legend, Bon Iver's Justin Vernon and many, many more. A nice return to form for hip-hop's reigning king of controversy.

$FREE.99: DRY WAVES

Free music courtesy of Moodgadget's Jakub Alexander and the folks at ISO50. Dry Waves is a 13-track compilation featuring songs from Warm Ghost, Com Truise, Shigeto, Beautiful Bells, Mux Mool and more. Click here to download.

ALDEN x UNIONMADE WORK BOOT...

Super clean. Waaaaay too expensive, but super clean.

ESCAPE FROM THE INCUBATOR...

Live drawing video by Sougwen Chung for Shigeto's debut on Ghostly International, Full Circle. Good stuff.

SHINY SUIT THEORY...

Big news this week. Emcee extraordinaire Jay Electronica has officially inked a deal with Jay-Z's Roc Nation and is expected to FINALLY release Act 2: Patents of Nobility (the turn) sometime in 2011. The first official leak from the album is "Shiny Suit Theory" featuring Jay-Z and The Dream. Check the audio after the jump.

LETHERETTE EP...

Out this week courtesy of Ho_Tep Records is the self-titled debut EP from UK production duo Letherette. This one would make Dilla smile. Eight tracks (or Donuts) filled with spliced boogie, dusty samples, wonky beats and soulful melodies. Delicious.

BRIGHT LIGHTS BIGGER CITY...

Glossy new video from Cee-Lo Green. This is "Bright Lights Bigger City" from The Lady Killer. Good stuff.

HOT MESS...

Kick-ass new video from Canadian electro-funkateers Chromeo. This is "Hot Mess" from the recently released Business Casual. Two words for this one, simply irresistible.

THE LADY KILLER...

Rounding out the new releases for this week is The Lady Killer, the highly-anticipated new record from Goodie Mob vet turned pop/soul sensation Cee-Lo Green. The album features production from Salaam Remi, Paul Epworth, Jack Splash and The Smeezingtons who hit a home run with the insanely catchy lead single "Fuck You".

FULL CIRCLE...

Also out this week via Ghostly International is Full Circle, the debut full-length from drummer/electronic beat maker Shigeto. This album is REALLY good. Check out the video below for a teaser of each track on the album.

Once you've been convinced that you need this music in your life, head over to the Ghostly Store and drop $8 and receive the entire album plus 5 remixes not found on iTunes including an absolute gem from Mike Slott.

MAN ON THE MOON II: THE LEGEND OF MR. RAGER...

Another big week for new releases. First up is Man On The Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, the highly-anticipated sophomore record from stoney hip-hop crooner KiD CuDi.

Production on the album is handled primarily by Emile, Dot Da Genius and Plain Pat and features guest vocals from Cee-Lo, KanYe West, Mary J. Blige, Cage and more. My first time through the album was a bit underwhelming. Let's see if it grows on me.

US (JON HOPKINS REMIX)...

Speaking of Nosaj Thing's Drift Remixed, here is the video for "Us (Jon Hopkins Remix)".

DRIFT REMIXED...

The second remix album comes courtesy of LA beat scene standout Nosaj Thing. Drift Remixed features 8 tracks from 2009's Drift remixed by the likes of Low Limit, Teebs, Jamie xx, Daedelus and Take. More often than not the remixes don't outdo the originals but there are a few high-quality efforts on here.

SWIM REMIXES...

Two notable remix albums were released this week as well. First up is Swim Remixes from psychedelic sonic wizard Dan Snaith, aka Caribou. The album contains remixes of nearly every song from Swim from the likes of Junior Boys, Gold Panda, Ikonika, Nite Jewel, DJ Doze and more. A great companion piece to one of this 2010's finest releases.

L.A. SERIES #7...

Also out this week courtesy of All City is L.A. Series #7 featuring the notable talents of modern funk all-stars Dâm-Funk and Computer Jay. Behind the recent Daedelus/Teebs split probably my second favorite release in the series.

SMALL CRAFT ON A MILK SEA...

Also out this week is Small Craft On A Milk Sea, the new album from electronic music pioneer Brian Eno. The album is split pretty evenly between classic ambient compositions and suedo-industrial electronic tracks. I prefer the tracks that fall into the former category, but appreciate the experimental nature of the latter as well.

LIGHT YEARS...

BIG week for new releases. First up is Light Years, the highly-anticipated debut full-length from electro-funk beat makers Dark Party (Eliot Lipp + Leo 123). Fans of modern funk (think Dâm-Funk) and icy electro (think Jimmy Edgar) will be all over this one.

THE WAY THAT I RHYME...

New video from emcee extraordinaire J-Live. This is "The Way That I Rhyme" featuring Boog Brown from the forthcoming Undivided Attention EP due on November 2nd.

PHANTOM...

Out next week via All City is the 7th release in the L.A. Series split between two modern funk luminaries, Dâm-Funk and Computer Jay. One track that won't appear on the release is the Om Unit remix of "Phantom" from Computer Jay. Fortunately for you, it's available below for your listening pleasure.

LAZER SWORD...

Out this week as an exclusive pre-sale at the Stones Throw online store is the highly anticipated debut self-titled release from Low Limit & Lando Kal, known together as production duo Lazer Sword. The album features 15 new joints with guest vocals from Turf Talk, M. Sayyid, Zackey Force Funk and Myka 9. Good stuff.

GLAMOURE EP...

Also out this week courtesy of Musique Large is Glamoure, the third EP from French producer Fulgeance. The EP features 4 new productions and 3 remixes courtesy of Kelpe, Gablé and Huess. Solid all the way through. Don't skip this one.

IRRATIONAL ALPHABET...

Out this week via Magical Properties is Irrational Alphabet, the debut full-length from Barcelona-based electronic producer My Dry Wet Mess. Stuttering beats and playful melodies abound on this one. Fans of HudMo and Rustie take notice.

Another look at the Benson from Pointer. This time in chocolate.

New video from Flying Lotus for standout track "Kill Your Co-Workers" from the recently released Pattern+Grid World. Dope!

ARDOUR...

Out today via FlyLo's Brainfeeder imprint is Ardour, the highly anticipated full-length debut from LA artist slash musician Teebs. The LA beat scene is densely populated these days but the rich, meditative production from Teebs makes him stand out. Don't sleep on this one!

New video from Lupe Fiasco's side project Japanese Cartoon. This is "Heirplanes" directed by 13thWitness. Check it.

MARGINS EP...

Out this week courtesy of Black Acre is the Margins EP from NoDoz alumni Kelpe. The EP features 4 new tracks from the UK beatsmith. You can definitely hear the influence of new label mates Blue Daisy and Tokimonsta throughout... and that's a good thing. Check for this one.

$FREE.99: HUNG MARKETS

New FREE track from up and coming electronic producer Seams. This is "Hung Markets" from the forthcoming Tourist on Pictures Music. Listen/download below. Fans of Rounds era Four Tet rejoice!

ERASE ME...

Goofy new video from KiD CuDi. This is "Erase Me" featuring KanYe West from the forthcoming Man On The Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager. Can't say I'm loving the new direction.

AUTHENTICITY...

Out today courtesy of FE Music is Authenticity, the third album from hip-hop turned soul duo The Foreign Exchange. One of the strengths of 2008's Leave It All Behind was the diversity of vocal talents backing Phonte including Muhsinah, YahZarah and Darien Brockington. With Authenticity, Phonte goes it alone for much of the album and I can't yet say if that's a good thing. Perhaps I need to give it a few more spins?

THE CORRIDOR EP...

Out now courtesy of Terrorhythm is The Corridor EP, the latest batch of tunes from UK electronic producer Om Unit. The EP features four new compositions from the man himself and a remix of the title track from the hotly tipped Shigeto. Check out the audio below.

NIKE SB STEFAN JANOSKI PREMIUM...

The uber successful Janoski gets the premium nod again, this time in distressed black leather. Good look.

TSOL...

Rounding out the new releases for the week is the stateside release of TSOL from Canadian rap sensation Shad. Great beats. Great lyrics. Destined to be one of my favorite hip-hop records this year.

WHY LIKE THIS?

Also out this week is Why Like This?, the latest single from Brainfeeder affiliate Teebs. The single serves as a lead in for Ardour, his debut full-length which lands on October 19th. Do not sleep on this kid!

SUNBURST EP...

Also out this week is the Sunburst EP, the Warp debut from Glasglow resident Rustie. A wonderful confection of classic electro, ATL crunk, techno, R'n'B, and lazer-boogie. Doesn't that sound nice? See for yourself after the jump.

THE CALIPH'S TEA PARTY...

The 4th quarter of 2010 has officially arrived and with it another solid batch of new releases. First up is a remix album from Gonjasufi called The Caliph's Tea Party. The album features tracks from A Sufi and a Killer remixed by the likes of Bibio, Dam Mantle, Jeremiah Jae, Shlohmo and more.

L.A. SERIES #6...

Out this week via All City is L.A. Series #6 featuring the musical talents of Daedelus and Teebs. What a nice combination, right? The old guard of the LA beat scene alongside an exciting new comer. All City delivers once again.

WELCOME (GOTTA GO)...

New video from indie hip-hop producer par excellence, Black Milk. This is "Welcome (Gotta Go) from the recently released Album of the Year. I LOVE the beat on this joint. Check it.

POINTER BENSON...

Best know for his work with Jay-Z on the classic "Dead Presidents" Ski enlists a crew of up and comers for 24HKS including Jay Electronica, The Cool Kids, Stalley and more. The only drawback? Not including the vocal version of "Cream of the Planet" with Mos Def.

MAXIMUM BALLOON...

Also out this week is the highly anticipated self-titled debut from TV On The Radio's production ace David Sitek under the moniker Maximum Balloon. The album features guest turns from a slew of vocalists including Theophilus London, Karen O, Tunde Adebimpe, Kyp Malone, David Byrne and more. A must have for TVOTR fans.

GRID+PATTERN WORLD...

Also out this week is Grid+Pattern World, the new EP from LA beat scene kingpin Flying Lotus. Dude is relentless. Everything he puts out is seriously top-notch. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Just go buy this record. Still unsure? Check out "Kill Your Co-Workers" after the break.

GOOD THINGS...

Another BIG week for new releases. First up is the early release from Stones Throw of Good Things from rapper turned crooner Aloe Blacc. The album is produced entirely by Truth & Soul and features the surprise hit "I Need A Dollar". Available now at the Stones Throw online store.

AIRTIGHT'S REVENGE...

Rounding out the new releases for the week is Airtight's Revenge, the highly anticipated new record from OG neo-soul crooner Bilal. The kid is definitely back with this one. Check out "Restart" after the jump for proof.

ALBUM OF THE YEAR...

Also out this week is Album of the Year, the new record from Motown hip-hop producer/emcee Black Milk.The title of the album is a bit deceptive, it's actually connected to the year 2009 when Milk lost his close friend Baatin of Slum Village and saw his manager HexMurda experience a life-threatening stroke. The result is a focused effort that channels those hardships without coming off all "woe is me". Definitely check for this one.

BUSINESS CASUAL...

It's a big week for new releases. First up is Business Casual, the new record from electro-funk megastars Chromeo. Even more so than their previous effort, this one has a real Hall & Oates vibe to it, and that's a good thing.

Out this week via Brainfeeder is the None An Island EP from Lorn. The 4-track EP features two songs from the stellar Nothing Else ("None An Island" & "Until There Is No End", a collaborative track with Samiyam ("Brainwaves") and one new unreleased track ("Never Enough"). Nothing but goodness.

SNOW AND TAXIS...

Lucky Shiner, the new album from Gold Panda has been in heavy rotation since being released earlier this week. Check out the Ronni Shendar directed video for standout track "Snow and Taxis" below. Very nice.

RAINS...

New video from Teebs & Jackhigh. This is "Rains" from their debut collabo The Tropics EP. I suddenly feel queasy.

LUCKY SHINER...

Out today is Lucky Shiner, the Ghostly International debut from UK producer Gold Panda. The album is a stunning amalgam of deconstructed hip-hop, vinyl-static beats and heart-on-sleeve melancholia. Very good indeed.

SHAKE OUT THE OTHER WAY...

Out now is Shake Out The Other Way, the fourth and final remix EP from Pollyn. The final installment is a good one too featuring remixes from Nosaj Thing, Exile, James Pants and Pollyn themselves. Check out the Pollyn remix of "Falling Out Of Place" featuring Freddie Gibbs after the jump.

GALAXY HIGH...

The Blessings are DomSum and Martyn Flyn, the creative forces behind one of the hottest labels on the beat scene, Glasgow's LuckyMe. This week they released their debut EP, Galaxy High via Nod Navigators. Soncially, it's a blend of 80's R'n'B nostalgia, electro and midnight funk. Fans of Hudson Mohawke and Mike Slott should be all over this one.

AIAIAI TMA-1

The TMA-1 from AIAIAI. So good!

LOVELY BLOODFLOW...
