Only days away from kicking off its tour of the Northern Hemisphere, the ZZK label hooked up the internet with a full stream of Chancha via Circuito‘s second full-length album Rio Arriba, which follows closely after sharing the latest EP from label/tour mate El Remolón. The record rides along a path between experimental cumbia and contemporary electronic productions, and features seven original tracks along with four remixes from Chancha via Circuito. You can check out the artwork and stream the album, as well as find the most updated ZZK tour dates, below. (via FADER)

LuckyMe cohorts Dom Sum and Fine Art (a.k.a. The Blessings) are about a month from releasing their debut EP, Galaxy High, for Amsterdam-based label Nod Navigators. But before that six-track release officially drops, the duo shared this beat-heavy mix for the second installment of the label’s podcast series. The Blessings’ 35-minute DJ set features a large amount of old-school and newer hip-hop jams, along with bits of soulful R&B, more-contemporary dance tunes, and assorted, mellower sounds mixed in for good measure. Stream the second Nod Navigators podcast here, and download it here.

One album we haven’t been able to pry loose from our office’s various music-listening devices, Mount Kimbie‘s Crooks & Lovers, is still a week from seeing its proper release, but for the remainder of that time, you can stream the highly anticipated album in full, exclusively through FACT. Not much more needs to be said about Dominic Maker’s and Kai Campos’ full-length record for Hotflush until everyone’s had a proper listen, so head here promptly and give ‘er a spin.

This August, from New York-based label Microcosm, techno minimalist Thomas Hildebrand will release his debut EP of pared-down, experimentally hypnotic dance tunes. The I Repeat Myself Often EP is the first release for Microcosm in nearly two years, and boasts five original tracks from the NYC producer, which have come together after a long and involved process of Hildebrand producing, sharing, revising, cutting, adding, and amending his sparse compositions. You can check out the artwork and track list before the EP is released August 10, below.

02. Bottlerock
03. Berlin Liebt Dich

More than seven years into his career and two years after the release of his last album, Loaded, Jamaica-based dancehall MC Busy Signal has finished work on another album for the VP label. Entitled D.O.B., the new record is said to represent “the rebirth of Busy Signal,” and is set to be released tomorrow, July 13. The record is preceded by a video for its first single, “Sweet Love (Night Shift),” which is a re-imagined take on two classic tunes, The Commodores’ “Night Shift” and Phil Collins’ “One More Night.” You can watch that video below, along with checking out the forthcoming album’s artwork and track list.

Sexed-up Montreal techno/electro wizard is releasing another remix single tomorrow, this time for the song “Gentle Giant,” which originally appeared on last year’s Ciao! album. Seeing the light of day on his own Turbo imprint, the “Gentle Giant” single features some real heavyweights scrambling and reassembling the pieces of the original track. Dubstep/techno/bass music demigod Martyn kicks things off, and he’s joined by minimal techno don Efdemin. Rounding out the release are two versions from Canada’s Mathew Jonson—indicating that Tiga either wanted to flex a little national pride, or maybe just wanted another ace techno producer to take a crack at reworking the song. Listen to all four versions below.
