Lady Danville
Who are Lady Danville you ask? Well in musical terms, they’re the perfect mix between the Local Natives and oldschool Death Cab. It’s the type of music you share with your lady friend when she thinks you’re lacking emotional depth.
This indie-pop trio hail from Los Angeles and following the events of a terrifying car wreck earlier this year became inspired to write the songs that would eventually make up their 3-track EP entitled “Operating”. Keep an eye out for these babes in the future, they’re going places.

WInnie’s Going to Cali
Okay, we all love Vancouver, there’s no denying that. But sometimes the weather can really rain on our parade, literally. And I don’t know about you, but Winnie is craving some glorious sunshine. That’s why “we’re going going back back to cali cali.” Well, L.A. to be more precise.
Obviously we’re not going alone. We’ve called some of the hottest up and coming acts in the industry and their combined talents are sure to blow your musical mind. It’s all going down Friday, March 9 at Dim Mak Studios in Hollywood and here’s who we’re bringing with us:
Paul Devro
Before he left L.A. to work as Diplo’s right hand man running the Mad Decent Label, Paul invented the modern dance party in Vancouver. Now he shares the stage with Boyz Noize, Justice, Fake Blood, and A-trak, just to name a few.
Benzona
Benzona, also with Mad Decent, is a former Winnie Cooper contributor who is quickly making a name for himself with his fun Colombian-infused disco house sets. Download one of his dope ass mixes here.
Humans
This Vancouver based duo have a strong local following that’s grown rapidly since making appearances at Pop Montreal, CMJ, SXSW, and NXNE. They’ve even shared the stage with such Canadian favorites as Broken Social Scene, Chromeo, and Junior Boys. And after blowing up the City of Angels for the first time, these boys will be heading to Austin for Winnie’s showcase at SXSW.
CBG (Chill Black Guys)
Chill Black Guys (CBG), who hail from the L.A./Bay area, are a hip-hop group on the verge of signing a major record deal. You may also know them from their popular music video’s, which feature friend and recent breakout star Kreayshawn.
Chill Black Guys – Heavy Metal
Tribe of Zebras
A new producer/DJ duo that have been making ground djing parties at various Hollywood hot spots over the past few years. They’ve remixed everyone from Gotye to the Morning Benders and still find time to produce their own music.

New Hip Hop: Death Grip
My buddy Jon showed me this guy few days ago and I was blown away just trying to understand what i was watching. The best quote i read was: “Kimbo Slice went back to smoking crack, lost all his muscle mass and decided to become a rapper.
Regardless, dude is raw and that’s the best part: no budget, no flash, no bullshit, just an angry dude going h.a.m riding shotgun in a Corolla. After a little searching, it turns out this is maybe one the many side-projects of Zach Hill (drumming god from the band, Hella) though the specifics are sketchy. (editors note, confirmed)
You can cop Death Grip’s mixtape “ex-military” at their website: http://thirdworlds.net/
Death Grip – Takyon (Death Yon)

Serious Lack of Internet
Moved to the Valley ewwww. But besides my troubles here’s a new one from L.A.’s own Lazrtag
