This morning, we bring you a Mailtape curated in collaboration with Barney Artist. Now, as you have eaten this week more than the combined total of what you will eat in the coming weeks, we thought you might desire a sweet tape to put an end to your insatiable Christmas craving.
Chill hip-hop
We truly believe Barney Artist will be a “hit” in 2015. His EP Bespoke is dope. On Space he worked with Tom Misch - you might remember him from a previous episode - and the track is pure chill.
Barney’s selection is the smoothest so we wanted to complete it with a tinge of mellow hip-hop and an ounce of harsh beats.
Barney Artist’s morning inspiration
Jordan Rakei - Add The Bassline (Nehzuil Remix)
Barney Artist: ” I’m a huge Jordan Rakei fan : really love his voice and the musicality of his songs. When I heard this Nehzuil remix of Add The Bassline lets just say it was played every Sunday from then on. Great vibes! “
Alfa & Emmavie - Easily, I Forget
Barney Artist: ” So, I had to throw some of my musical family in the mix of this Sunday playlist. Alfa Mist and Emmavie made an incredible EP called Epoch earlier this year and it was so difficult to choose just one song from it but Easily I forget stands out as its melodies, instrumentation and lyrics throw you into a trance. “
IDEH - Do Something
Barney Artist: ” This track is by a really cool new artist from London Ideh. This song reminds me a lot of Brandy on her Afrodisiac album really love the production by V beats and the tones from Ideh. Have a listen and vibe out with me this Sunday. “
That’s all folks! A big thank to our guest Barney Artist for his amazing selection, to Alex and Siddhartha. Enjoy your sunday and thank you for listening!
