Cosmin TRG
is Romanian born, Berlin based borders-crossing producer Cosmin Nicolae. Since 2007, his run of singles for A-list labels like Hessle Audio, Hotflush, Tempa, and Rush Hour has made it impossible to pin him to a specific scene or style. His debut album "Simulat" was tagged post dubstep by the press.
A DIY hip-hop project on a crackly bootleg tape is one of my best memories of the mid-90s.
Doesn't get more bubbly.

Gets me in the mood for sweaty basements.

It's not just disturbing, I have a feeling you can get arrested.
I don't really drive but it would be «Ace of Spades».
Proem is American, yet he takes a perfect aural snapshot of the things I miss. Not the vegetables per se, but the other things.
How can you crash when your flight is magic?
If it's spooky, let's make out.
Classic Romanian hiphop. Abstract and ominous, amazing flow. Only about 22 million people can understand the language though. And probably a few hundred can appreciate the lyrics.
Guilty pleasure: to play in a synth-pop band.
Makes me feel vaguely alive in the early hours.
