If you’re in need of some glitchy goodness, Boston’s answer to Flying Lotus is producer Ian Barnett’s solo project, Mallow. Be prepared to throw these suckers on your working/running/what the heck ever playlist. The latest single Shocks, Locks, and Shambles is balanced on the cusp of hip hop, electro, and instrumental genres. When you hear the multi-layered quality of the beats Barnett drops, you’ll be less inclined to try to define it – don’t be surprised if you find yourself hooked. Not to worry, Nimbus Land drops November 20th from Urban Waves Records. Hillary Anderson
