KAYTRANADA IS BACK AND HAS DROPPED A NEW ALBUM THAT FEATURES a-listers like CHILDISH GAMBINO AND TINASHE.

A new soundtrack to summer has just dropped! The artist behind the iconic 2013 Boiler Room set, Kaytranada, has a new 17-track album with features from Childish Gambino, Pinkpanthress, Anderson .Paak, Tinashe, Chanel Tres, Thundercat, and more.

Kaytranada rose to fame 11 years ago after his Montreal Boiler Room set went viral on YouTube. An everlasting classic, this Boiler Room repeatedly goes viral once a year for the music and the musings. Filled with great beats and fun “characters” to watch (bow girl) some YouTube commenters say, “I guess I found the longest meme ever,” “Everytime I watch this video I discover a new storyline,” and “I’ve never seen a party with so much diversity, from nerds to football players, from weirdos like me to models and everyone is happy and in tune.” Kaytranda’s Boiler Room paved the way for other hit Boiler Rooms, such as Fred Again…‘s nearly 10 years later.

Kaytranada’s new album is called ‘Timeless,’ including his stellar performance and longevity year after year this is an accurately fitting name for such a legend in the dance, hip-hop, and R&B scene. Kaytranada continues to evolve his sound over the years and is experimental to keep the fan’s attention, support, and love for the artist.

Chanel Tres graces the track “Stuntin” on the second disc of the “Timeless’ album. His recognizable sultry voice seamlessly matches Kaytranada’s slow BPM dance music with an old-school R&B influence. Tinashe behind the summer hit, “Nasty” is on “More Than A Little Bit,” and the rapper/comedian Childish Gambino is featured on “Witchy.”

Kaytranda has star power and is one of the first artists to release genre-blending music that marries hip-hop, rap, R&B, and dance music. Some other artists who have followed in these footsteps are Beyonce (Grammy winner) and Drake, both releasing dance albums in the last few years. Kaytranada remains on top of his game with a no-skip album ready to take over the airwaves.

Hey! I'm Shiv! Music is the greatest part of my life, I remember discovering dubstep when I was 15/16 and my entire life was altered - robot noises?? I needed MORE! Now, I live in NYC and have seen over 60 artists of all genres; my favorites being Odesza, Subtronics, Rezz, Griz, Zeds Dead, John Summit and Kaskade. I am an enjoyer of music and will try everything once, I do not discriminate - there is beauty in all genres (minus country). You can usually find me in a warehouse at 4AM because I am nocturnal and will quite literally never say no to a show.

What's your reaction?
