reminds me of bonobo and eskmo a little with the whole sidechain thing. Any tunes anyone can recommend, melodic but still kinda hard hitting and with a bit of that old school feel.....

Agreed, that's the dope feel good sound.

This is more glitchy but check out the end:




Heard about these guys from Freddy Todd:

yeah man, love the ending to that first song. reminds me of Light Through The Veins by John Hopkins... they don't really sound similar but they just make me feel really good haha. given me some good ideas to try out in the studio! and the second one has so much swag, will be checking more of Thriftwork out.

cheers dude

...and a remix for good measure

If you're feeling the dope boom bap vibes check out some skweee:



great slant from the scandos.

Yeah, I've checked out skwee, It's a bit too electronic if you know what i mean... looking for that organic but very much glitchy feel....

just bought this guys e.p

similar vibes and fucking awesome!
