Seattle-based Mid Century Modern (MCM) has released their debut album Biorhythms via MADK Productions.
The alternative jazz duo is made up of emcee/producer King Khazm and singer/songwriter, Jesse Kogita. Their new record brings on a huge cast of collaborators including DJ Supreme La Rock, and Seattle musicians D’Vonne Lewis (drums), Neil Welch (saxophone), DJ Shmix (turntables) and Julia Meyering (background vocals).
This weekend MCM kicked off their winter tour across the southwest and California with DEF-I and Myka 9.
MCM's musical journey spans over two decades respectively - Jesse, a jazz musician and singer-songwriter from Bainbridge Island, Washington, and Khazm, a prominent figure in the Pacific Northwest Hip Hop community. Merging their backgrounds, MCM blend genres and ideas, mixing digital and live elements to create original music that sounds simultaneously vintage and futuristic. Biorhythms explores the foundations and connections of jazz and hip hop, pushing the boundaries of genres, sound and space.

Ty Dolla $ign's "On Repeat": A Slippery Groove That Keeps the Party Locked In
In the hazy afterglow of Ty Dolla $ign's fourth studio album TYCOON, one track emerges as the undisputed earworm: "On Repeat," a sultry, bass-thumping collaboration with Rich The Kid and Destroy Lonely. Clocking in at just over three minutes, it's the kind of song that doesn't just play so much as it loops and pulls you into its orbit like a late-night drive through the streets of LA. Ty's voice, that signature, swaggering falsetto, glides over a trap-infused beat that's seductive and relentless, like a low-rider’s slow-roll menace cruising Crenshaw Boulevard. The features? Rich The Kid drops ad-libs that crackle, while Destroy Lonely's eerie, auto-tuned whispers add a layer of futuristic haze, turning what could be a standard club banger into a vibe that lingers long after the drop fades.
Unapologetic economy sets "On Repeat" apart in TYCOON's star-studded sprawl. No wasted bars, no overreaching flexes. It's pure propulsion, built on themes of indulgence and endless nights that Ty has mastered over a decade of hook-craft. Lyrics like "We gon' run this shit on repeat / Pop another, make it sweet" aren't reinventing the wheel—they are the wheel. Critics have noted how the album leans into familiar territory, with its parade of guests occasionally diluting the focus, but here, the chemistry clicks: It's Ty at his most relaxed yet commanding, a tycoon in name and delivery, cracking just enough vulnerability to humanize the bravado.
And the versatility of this track isn’t confined to playlists. On my watch via my Global Frequency mixshow, it's been devouring airwaves worldwide, drawing raves from listeners who can't get enough of its hypnotic pulse. Crank it in the club and it owns the floor with that mid-tempo grind. In a radio set, it bridges the gap between R&B seduction and hip-hop hustle. At a lowrider showcase, picture it thumping from hydraulics as the crowd sways in synchronized rebellion. It can blast over the roar of a stadium during a timeout, turning the lull into electric anticipation. Hell, even solo in your whip, windows down as autumn leaves swirl, it transforms gridlock into a private rave.
In a fall season seeking warmth against the chill, "On Repeat" is the anthem that ensures your playlist doesn't skip a beat.
Wishing you peace, love and Hip-Hop unity.
Make the world a little better thru music.

Last week I was back home in the “206” Seattle. The magic happened on both Thursday (15th) & Friday (16th) nights.
On Thursday we were at Rainier Avenue Radio’s Black History Month Museum at 4916 Rainier Ave South. Sheila Locke, Sir Mix-A-Lot & I reunited for the first time since NASTYMIX Records closed in 1992. We shared behind-the-scenes look at the birth, creation & fall of NASTYMIX Records!
Friday found us at the 206 Zulu’s 20th Anniversary event at Madame Lou’s (2505 1st Avenue).
Both nights were memorable!
Rest In Peace, brother Nes.
