Off the back of his new album ‘Poison‘, Swizz Beats links teamLab for a new video for Nas – assisted album cut ‘Echo.’ Despite being shot in the impressive Mori Building, a vast, three-dimensional 10,000 square metre space in which 520 computers and 470 projectors create a completely new world, it looks like all they’ve managed…
British producer JMZ releases a new track “inspired by a recent spontaneous 3am drive through downtown Miami.” Named after the Delorean in Back To The Future, it’s a track aimed at capturing “the feeling of that moment and the desire to re experience it,” hence the nostalgic title.
