Feeling this new dancehall-rap style beat from Poirier. Minimal and infectious, its got me hooked. On this one he’s invited MCs and vocalists from around the world to lay down their versions. Voicings come from Montreal/Haiti’s Mr. OK (my pick), Boogat & Madhi, Uganda’s Kween G, France’s Set & Match & Montreal’s L’Xtrmst.Zen. Grab the …

Through their collaborations, Face-T and Poirier have been holding down Montreal’s Electro-Caribbean inflected identity for years. This is their newest release, off of Face-T’s album Tuff Like Stone. The Garage-y intro got me hype. Peep the whole album in mini-mix preview form… and download this brain-bending remix by A Tribe Called Red:
Poirier – Soca Road EP
You can pretty much trust Poirier to deliver the goods. Once again he’s playing to his strengths with a carnival pile up of soca killers. These are going to have you following the next truck you see down the road waving your flag like you forgot its winter. Especially feeling ‘Bring It On’ with vocals …
Paul Devro – Mixpak Mix
There are few DJs out there that I rate higher than Mad Decent’s Paul Devro. Specifically because of his shockingly good back catalogue of mixtapes, even back to the pauldevro.com days he always brought a sense of fun to the form, something that a lot of DJs seem to have forgotten.. never afraid to drop …

Hi-life soca sizzle
Very nice depiction from a different Kobiyashi. Of genuine interest nevertheless. Kubiyashi producer is an almighty. Here now with the hi-life styled soca moment.

Kubiyashi is one of the most polished soca craftsmen …

Mr. OK – YaYa (Bearmod RMX)
The Fader says ‘Mr. OK’s creole flow is cutting through the synths with a dragonslayer’s aim’. Fair comment. Following up his excellent debut on Masalacism, Haitian-Creole rapper Mr. OK is dropping a heatseeker of a new single. New producer, Bearmod brings a shuddering synth wobble. This remix is from Mr. OK’s summer release Men Mwen …
