Fool’s Gold was profiled in Billboard’s “Independent Study” column today, check it out to see what A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs have to say about the label’s origins, daily operations, and general vision for all things FG.

Vancouver upstart Sleepy Tom has quickly proved himself a young master of all things massive. His hometown parties and DJ sets alongside some of electronic music’s biggest names have earned a rep as Canada’s funnest. His internet incinerating bootlegs and official remixes (including an especially chunky take on Diplo’s “Set It Off”) can be heard everywhere from BBC radio to festival stages around the globe. And now with his first original release, The Currency (hitting Beatport on 5/28), Sleepy Tom takes his taste for overdriven laser riffs, donk’d out kick drums, and all manner of speaker-zapping dance music to an even higher level of OOMPH.

Check out some snippets below: from the supercharged house of “Let It Go” to the title track’s rollercoaster-worthy buildups, The Currency is one debut that’s impossible to sleep on. Don’t let the kid’s name fool you!

Drvg Cvltvre has been living up to his name with freaky edits (including one for our own Jokers Of The Scene), remixes and original tracks. He put together a DJ mix for our FOOLCAST series, and it seriously bumps. If you’re asking about a track list, Mr Cvltvre explains this was “recorded live, so I’ll have to shazam it ”

Subscribe to the Foolcast via iTunes or your favorite RSS reader at the main Foolcast page, where you can also download the mix directly (right click and save-as). Dive in and trip out…

Dizzee Rascal’s slow rolling TX collab “H-Town,” produced by A-Trak and Oligee (who you may know as one half of the dynamic Oliver duo) now has a video, shot in Houston of course. Slabs galore!

Head over to Giant Step to RSVP for Onra’s DJ set this Monday night at Le Bain in NYC. Joints will be played! Moves will be busted! Get in the mood by bumping Onra’s FG EP Deep In The Night.

Brooklyn’s own 2Beeps cranks up the laser beams and takes us back to the future with his Miami Bass inspired banger, “Showtime,” the latest free download in our Clubhouse series. Grab tracks weekly at foolsgoldrecs.com/clubhouse.

“Showtime” is big speaker music made to play LOUD… exactly what the Clubhouse was made for! (Be sure to check out Solidisco, Lenkemz and Vails’ contributions to the series too…)

Grande and Trizzy headed up to Tony Touch’s Shade45 show last week to chop it up with Toca and Al Lindstrom. And as always… bars were spit! Check out the freestyle above.
