28 February 2022

Shining a light on some of the hottest new music to drop over the course of the past week, UrlfreezeShops select their top five musical moments for your listening pleasure.

CONWAY THE MACHINE – “GOD DON'T MAKE MISTAKES”

With Conway the Machine’s debut album on Shady Records, “God Don’t Make Mistakes”, the Buffalo rapper takes a deep and introspective approach. Across the 12-track project, the artist delivers personal rhymes that reflect on past events and struggles, combined with guest verses provided by Lil Wayne, Rick Ross and Westside Gunn.

DENZEL CURRY – “DIET COKE”

Ahead of his forthcoming album, “Melt My Eyez See Your Future”, Denzel Curry partners with Slowthai to deliver “Zatoichi”. A visceral, drum and bass-derived instrumental is combined with fast-paced vocals, showcasing the exuberant sound synonymous with both artists.

HUERCO S "PLONK"

With his first album in six years, “Plonk”, Huerco S takes a deep dive into his textured and off-kilter sound. The project moves way from the ambience so often associated with Brian Leeds, instead replacing it with intricate and mechanical sounds that fail to be categorised by one genre.

JPEGMAFIA – “OFFLINE!”

JPEGMAFIA follows up from his critically-acclaimed album, “LP!”, with a five-track EP dubbed “OFFLINE!”. The project showcases what the experimental artist does best: combining high-energy vocals with intricate and sample-heavy instrumentals.

ADULT. – “BECOMING UNDONE”

ADULT.’s 9th studio album, “Becoming Undone”, sees the Detroit synth-punk duo take inspiration from the idea of chaotic unravelling. The 8-track project brings together a plethora of sounds, from squealing synths to thumping drum patterns, reflecting the dark, energetic tone we’ve long come to expect from the two.
