Exile
“Stay Tuned (Stay Here)
(Muhsinah’s Vocal Remix)”
b/w “It’s Coming Down
(Shafiq Husayn Remix)”

(For Part 1 of the exclusive Fresh Selects x Exile – Radio preview, click here)

For the second leak off of producer, Exile‘s forthcoming LP, Radio, I have a preview of the album’s first single, including 2 non-album remixes. On the A side, we have “Stay Tuned (Stay Here)” which features Muhsinah adding vocals to one of the album’s instrumental highlights. Whereas the album version was a sound collage made up of a flurry of static, glitches and talk radio, Muhsinah’s vocals manage to breath new life into the track and adds a romantic touch to the otherworldly, “Stay Tuned.” The song was first debuted on CDRADIO a few weeks ago, and was recently included in Exile’s I Got The Radio mix for Red Bull Music Academy Radio, but I’ve got the exclusive, CDQ free download of the song for you guys.

I’ve also got your first listen to the single’s B side, an exclusive remix of “It’s Coming Down by Shafiq Husayn of SA-RA Creative Partners. While it contains some samples in common with Exile’s album version, it seems like Shafiq basically re-imagined his version from scratch, giving it a much more avant garde, stream of consciousness feel, which serves as a good balance to the more straightforward Muhsinah track on the flip.

And as usual, I’ve added some bonus tracks after the jump – this time with the focus being on Muhsinah rarities. Included is “Soso,” from the original, self-released version of her current EP, Oscillations – which oddly enough, didn’t make the cut on the new version. Also, we have her producing for & appearing with Stacy Epps from Stacy’s self-released Ruff Drafts CD-R, as well as a bonus free download of her collaboration with Seattle producer, Jake One, made at the Red Bull Music Academy in Toronto last year. Also, stay tuned (pun intended) for an upcoming Fresh Selects exclusive from Muhsinah, featuring a remix by one of the Fresh Kept Secrets alumni.
