Multi-platinum producer DECAP returns to Audius with his latest single, “MYSTIC.” This beat typifies a genre dubbed future knock, a style of instrumental beats combining soul and hip-hop elements with futuristic environments. In “MYSTIC,” DECAP uses a tight drum beat and delicate, bouncing chords to create a laidback mood. The whimsical transforms into the mystical as DECAP contrasts this staccato beat with glowing sustained synths. The Billboard Top 10 producer once again displays his prolific abilities in the studio with “MYSTIC,” synthesizing two distinct moods with simple yet effective components.

In “Gas Station,” CODES and Q The Music fill listeners with nonchalant energy as they combine bubbly chic with a touch of laidback goofiness.

Hadji Gaviota celebrates the release of his album, wallflower. This body of work pulls from an eclectic selection of genres, including indie pop, drum and bass, rap, trap, and EDM. All throughout wallflower, Hadji Gaviota fuses these genres together unexpectedly, like layering an electric guitar growl over a drum and bass beat while Gao the Arsonist and Hadji Gaviota flow in “i’m bored.” Meanwhile, “midnight snack,” rapidly racking listens on Audius, revives the juvenile joy from summers past with the defiant energy of indie rock.
