2. Mars Jackson - "BRAVO!"

Pittsburgh's Mars Jackson told us that his influences range from Kanye and Daft Punk, and all the way to Jimmy Eat World. Although those influences might not be immediately obvious on "BRAVO!" there's something unique and immediate about both the delivery and clanking production.

3. HANAH - "Out of Touch"

"Out of Touch" is Brooklyn artist HΛNΛH’s debut single, and it's a great first taste with hypnotizing production, tinny drums, and a soundscape that feels like it's swaying in the night sky. Ready to enter a dream state?

4. ILOVEMAKONNEN - "Club Goin Up On A Tuesday"

ILOVEMAKONNEN is different, and in the best way. He's working with some of the hottest ATL producers out, but he's not spitting trap rap—far from it. On the unique Sonny Digital and Metro Boomin-produced "Club Goin Up On A Tuesday," Makonnen makes an unlikely anthem dedicated to weekday partying. Tuesday is now the best day of the week.

5. Shlohmo & Jeremih's "No More" EP

The unlikely but brilliant pairing of experimental producer Shlohmo and R&B crooner Jeremih finally delivered on the promise of "Bo Peep" and "No More" with an awesome EP of futuristic R&B.

6. Daye Jack - "Trapped in Love"

Though he's only 18, Atlanta musician Daye Jack is wise beyond his years. Uninterested in the typical sounds associated with modern rap in Atlanta, Daye Jack is making intelligent, genre-blurring music that offers a fresh perspective from a kid who's not afraid to do things differently.

7. Galvanix x ONE4ALL - "Poured Up"

Our fam at Do Androids Dance? always has the goods when it comes to electronic music, and their SoundCloud is a wealth of freebies. Here's one of our recent favorites.

10. The Sidewayz - "Chun Li"

Any song that samples Street Fighter is already a good song in its own right, but Memphis rap duo The Sidewayz find an interesting way to incorporate the video game's sound effects for a cool result.

11. Ricky Eat Acid - "p u l l"

Featured on Ryan Hemsworth’s secret songs series, Ricky Eat Acid's "p u l l" features complex production that takes influences from all over the place to make a beat that's experimental but still epic.

13. Saba ft. ft Eryn Allen Kane And MC Tree - "For Y'all"

There's a lot of awesome hip-hop coming out of Chicago right now, but trust us, Saba’s another rapper you should check out, especially if you like the more soulful side of the Chi. "For Y'all" is an example of that, and this isn't even one of the singles.

Check out Saba's ComfortZone mixtape here.

14. Audego - "Ghost"

Melbourne-based duo Audego mix a crisp beat and beautiful keys on their intriguing new single "Ghost."

15. Mechsicko - "How We Live (Get This Money)"

Mechsicko is a 21-year-old producer from Seaside, California. He sent over his latest work, Proph's "How We Live (Get This Money)" on Twitter, and while the title suggests some upbeat glorification of cash, "How We Live" is actually a dark, aggressive, and hard-as-fuck track.

16. Waka Flocka Flame's "I Can't Rap Vol. 1" Mixtape

Waka Flocka Flame dropped a new mixtape titled I Can't Rap Vol. 1 this past week, which features a remix he did of Drake's "0-100," his take on "Blood on the Leaves" and "Danny Glover." Production credits include Atlanta staples Mike Will Made It and 808 Mafia.
