Ryan Hemsworth is on fire right now.
The Canadian producer and WEDIDIT member already had our ear this year with his work for rappers like Main Attrakionz and various solo projects, but it was his contribution to the FACT mix series that really had us under his spell. A meticulous blend of hip-hop, indefinable electronic weirdness and a lot of video game samples, it tore straight into the nostalgia part of our brain, and hasn’t even threatened to leave.
Fellow Canadian Black Atlass [above] is no slouch either, and here Hemsworth re-twists ‘Castles’ from the singer’s debut EP into a paranoid session of oscillations and smoky ambience. You can stream the track below, and download it here.
