MED, Blu, D?M-FunK: "Peroxide" (Prod. Madlib)
A couple weeks ago I posted the star-studded first single off the Madlib-produced upcoming project, The Buzz, bearing the same name as the release. Today, the squad of Madlib, Blu, MED and D?M-FunK get together for the B-side to The Buzz (Available on vinyl, here.), titled "Peroxide", originally due out tomorrow. The release marks the first time all of these artists have been featured together on vinyl and buying the throwback medium will get you a bonus beat, as well as several a capella tracks and instrumentals. Check the second half of the project, "Peroxide" here below.

Mayer Hawthorne Announces Tour
Detroit soul singer Mayer Hawthorne will be starting off his 2014 on the road after announcing his largest tour to date earlier today. Hawthorne will be touring in support of his July release Where Does This Door Go, which is also the name of his trip across the country that begins January 30 in Sand Diego and runs through March 6 when he arrives back in Motown. A quintessential performer and fresh off opening for Bruno Mars on his European tour, Mayer Hawthorne is certainly an act to catch live. Full dates and a video of Mayer announcing the tour are here below.

MED, Blu, Mayer Hawthorne & Madlib: "The Buzz"
This super funky collaboration is, in fact, real. MED got together with the soulful trio of Blu, Madlib and Detroit's own Mayer Hawthorne to craft "The Buzz". With a beat perfectly suited for everyone involved as Hawthorne lays the hooks between which Blu, MED and Madlib do their thing. The track will make even the greyest of Fall days seems a bit more hopeful. Check out the track below and keep an eye out for the single dropping November 26 with D?M-FunK‘s “Peroxide” on the B-side. Pick up "The Buzz" via Stones Throw.
