West Coast top shotta Dios Negasi hits the steak-house on new track “Filet Mignon.” Over a watery keyboard sample and snappin’ drums the emcee/producer gets lethally braggadocious and stunts on lames.

As he says of the track “When I wrote and recorded this track I was just so pissed off at all of the weak rap shit I was coming across. You can’t wait for a muh fucker to give you your flowers, you just gotta take them.”

“Filet Mignon” is taken from the forthcoming Kevlar Cathedral album (to drop on 8/6). A fully self-produced effort, the project continues the prolific body of work of Dios, who keeps rugged boom-bap alive in his solo projects and as a member of Reagan Era Records.

Another track from the project was recently released entitled “Harem” (link below).

Host Bodies’ track ‘On A Roll’ Gets a Psychedelic Reinvention from Soul Glitch

Ten years after Host Bodies first released the album Daily Apparatus, “On A Roll” has found a completely new groove.

For the Daily Apparatus: 10 Year Remixes project, multi-instrumentalist and producer Nicholas Hasty, under his Soul Glitch moniker, takes the original electronic-rock track and pulls it into deeper, more psychedelic territory.

The remix keeps the energy of Host Bodies intact while opening up the track with new beats, electronic textures and expressive saxophone solos. Electric guitar, bass and layered production give it a rich, genre-blurring sound that sits somewhere between indie electronic, jazztronica, soultronica and alternative dance.

There’s something particularly satisfying about hearing a decade-old track treated not as a relic, but as raw material. Soul Glitch reshapes “On A Roll” , finding new spaces within the original and bringing his own musical language into the mix.

The result is energetic, sensual, psychedelic and unapologetically expansive.

Ten years on, “On A Roll” proves that sometimes the best way to celebrate where a song came from is to find somewhere completely new for it to go.
