Noblonski & Nolto "Amazing Saturday" [ALBUM]

 

Eight days a week is not enough to show that some artists care, but German producer, Noblonski, and Canadian rapper, Nolto, only need one: an Amazing Saturday. Their first full length project together, Amazing Saturday is an embodiment of the linguistic concept of “wortbildung” combining different themes and aesthetics to create a new distinct identity that feels familiar. Amazing Saturday combines Noblonski’s comforting melodic optimism with Nolto’s reckless, joyful pessimism, creating a cohesive composition of complaints about life, love, libations, and liturgy. The combination preserves each artist’s signature style and familiar aesthetic while standing authentically on its own as something greater than its parts. Noblonski and Nolto’s friends graciously lend their talents throughout the album, including StapleMouth, Id Obelus, The Gumshoe Strut, Chaps, Chadio, and Cam the Wizzard. This album is not just pleasantly relaxing at the start of a weekend; indeed, it’s amazing.

Pasquale "God's Name" [SINGLE]

 

According to Moses Maimonides, we cannot accurately speak of God’s attributes. But, we can name Her. We can wonder and worship. We can spread Her word and Her influence. In Her name. Pasquale shows us his wonder and his worship, in “God’s Name”. It’s a blessing and an embrace, on a crowded bus, on time, and in headphones. You know Pasquale, aka Chadio, by his fruits and not necessarily his names. “God’s Name” is no different. It’s a reverent reminder that the names we use fail to accurately reflect our realities. We simply adopt those reflections and pretend that we recognize them. And “God’s Name” recognizes us in return. She turns the volume a little louder and we love Her for it.

Fortunato "The Coalition (The Remixes)" [ALBUM]

 In 2024, Fortunato and The Dirty Sample released their collaboration album, The Coalition, which was remixed by a hand-picked selection of producers as a bonus for the b-side of the cassette release. After two years exclusive to that format, the remix album is now available to the public as a digital release. The first single, “Will To Survive”, features the return of Gordski, the production half of The Goods, who replaces original guest Ol’ Gorilla Bones for a posse cut with Chadio, Noah23, Wordburglar and Ultra Magnus. The album also features remixes from Pasquale, Rove, Noblonski, Sean One, and others, as well as the original demo version of closing track “Get It” produced by Fredro Starr of Onyx. The Coalition - The Remixes is a worthy reimagining of the dusty original album produced by The Dirty Sample.

Noblonski & Nolto "Dandy Lions" (feat. The Gumshoe Strut) [SINGLE]

 

What makes the lions dandy is their devotion to dress and appearance. But, “Dandy Lions” abandons pretence and presentation. It answers the door in a bathrobe. In the evening. “Dandy Lions” is a pleading justification for letting things go, for procrastination, and for experimenting with different ways of living. Noblonski's beat provides a peaceful and relaxing scene, in which Nolto promises he'll simply continue to monitor the results of his dereliction, and The Gumshoe Strut struggles to balance and prioritize his time and attention. The result is a call to inaction: give up the things that don't matter, and see what happens. Go gather more data.

The Dirty Sample's remix abandons the peacefulness of the original and replaces it with a "sick day" spent in a dark basement playing video games, giving a new perspective to what data may be gathered.

Noblonski & Nolto "Psilocybin" (feat. StapleMouth) [SINGLE]

“Psilocybin” is the first single and opening track from Noblonski & Nolto’s forthcoming album, Amazing Saturday. Nolto's smooth sing-song flow contrasts perfectly with guest rapper StapleMouth's uptempo rap delivery as the two reminisce fondly about the therapeutic and spiritual use of the titular drug and their experiences with it over Noblonski’s chill and ethereal soundscape. It’s one part humorous and one part deeply introspective, much like any ‘shroom trip. Get lost on drugs and find yourself.
