“Harlem Shake” became a meme thanks to some air-humping Australian teens, but Brooklyn-based DJ and producer Baauer is no one-hit wonder. His latest dance track “Temple” raises the temperature with spitfire rhymes from MIA and G-Dragon (a Korean sensation armed with artistic control and fashion style akin to Lady Gaga). At the end, the fierce attitudes wash away into a beautiful, ambient soundscape that seems like it’s recreating a pastoral scene with synthetic sounds. Baauer’s debut album Aa releases this week on LuckyMe, featuring collaborations with artists like Pusha T, Future, Rustie, English grime rapper Novelist and more.
