kLL sMTH – ‘Decoy’

Colorado’s kLL sMTH is a low-end architect who has been constructing killer bass tunes for almost a decade now.

Now, he is following up that release with a more traditional drum and bass tear-out this week with a proper D&B workout by the name of ‘Decoy’. 

Chee – ‘Vultures’

“I’m pleased to announce the release of my most anticipated single ‘Vultures’. This song means the world to me, it’s a body of work I‘ve made that blends the world of dance music that people love and experimental energy that resonates with me emotionally. Two worlds that collide that that fits like a puzzle. I hope you guys enjoy it, a journey, a stomper and a mind-bender.”
