The Rise of MONKEYTOWN and 50 WEAPONS



50 Weapons, run by EDM gurus Modeselektor, has been on the horizon for a while. Its now finally starting to step up with a phatty new release featuring remixes of Modeselektor's gem "Art & Cash", as well as a sweet single from none other than Night Slugs co-founder Bok Bok. Releases 001 and 002 from 50 Weapons were total white labels and still relatively hard to find. The first featured a remix of 50 Cent's "Just a Lil Bit" and the second was a two-sided 12" with tracks from Monkeytown artist Siriusmo and BPitch Control bredren Housemeister. Both were sickness. However you must peep the newness from Monkeytown so as to stay as excited about this stuff as we are. Recently, MDSLKTR's new Monkeytown records released Siriusmo's first full length album "The Plasterer of Love". Now you can be excited for some more upcoming tracks from the likes of SBTRKT, 2562 and Ramadanman to name a few. Here are some tracks from both labels that are worth owning and spinning!
