Bump In The Hump: Season 4 Intro

As part of the build towards tomorrow's fourth season premiere of Bump In The Hump, back on Radio Humber, I've got two treats for you. The first, another promo from the mind of Kenan Habibovic. Second, I compiled a list of my favourite tracks from the third season, threw them in a blender, added some effects and super cool computer voices, to create a new intro that you'll not only be able hear at the beginning of each show, but one that you can listen to right now, for maximum hype. Bump In The Hump goes live with it's brand new fourth season, tomorrow, Wednesday June 1st, from 6-7, with an exciting new show full of premieres, exclusives, bootlegs, and a two part treat from local DJ and producer, WWRD, who was kind enough to drop by for an interview and 15 minute mix.

Tune in live on 96.9 FM or on Radio.Humber.ca. As always, each episode of Bump In The Hump is posted to mixcloud.com/BumpInTheHump so go there and get hyped for the new season now!

LH4L - Count On You

There's something in the air, as it warms for summer, that just seems to bring out the best in producers. Other than the obvious tropical, I think the best genre for all around summer listening is future bass (a moniker I'm not too fond of, but that's another story). I've already written posts about L'Homme Aux 4 Lettres (LH4L) before and although I wouldn't classify much of his catalog as future bass, "Count On You" seems to fit the bill. Pitched-up, pained vocals are endlessly toyed with, juxtaposing the refreshing island flutes and percussion. As fleeting as a tropical breeze, LH4L bounces and eventually evaporates the vocals, in resplendent fashion. The play and progression in the drums and flutes are accented ingeniously by sneaky and sudden cut-drops. I sure expect this one to be played a lot this summer, I know it'll find its way into a bunch of my playlists.  Available for free download now, here.
