Acid Washed – “Acid Washed” (Danger Remix)

Acid Washed have been steadily gaining momentum since the release of their debut LP last March, and the guys at Record Makers have just released an EP filled with remixes by Mickey Moonlight, Jungle Fiction, Danger, and others. The label recently sent over the Danger remix, and this has to be some of his best [...]

EP: Teams – We Have A Room With Everything

Teams sent me his latest EP, We Have A Room With Everything, earlier in the week, and I’m still diving into this complex album. The man behind one of my favorite songs of the year has crafted a fascinating debut EP, which is a little on the ambient side, but still enthralls from start to [...]

VIDEO: Baths – “Lovely Bloodflow”

I’ve been waiting for the right moment to feature up-and-coming Los Angeles artist Baths, and this mesmerizing video for Lovely Bloodflow appears to be the perfect opportunity. This video’s cinematography and style looks like it’s straight out of Masaki Kobayashi’s Kwaidan. You can find Cerulean on Amazon for less than $9. Baths – Lovely Bloodflow [...]

Teebs – “Arthur’s Birds”

Teebs has been a fixture in the Los Angeles beat scene for some time now, and it sounds like Ardour, his debut LP on Brainfeeder, will cement his international acclaim. I’ve been following all of the extras leading up to this album, and I’m certain it’ll be a classic. You can pick up Ardour when [...]

VIDEO: Ahu – “To: Love.”

Ahu‘s sultry debut single, To: Love, will be available everywhere September 13th on One Handed Music. The label just put the single up on her bandcamp today, and I’m really getting into the baroque-tinted Dimlite remix. This is a stunning entrance to an exceptional debut album. You can buy the entire single on her bandcamp [...]

Wise Blood

I was stumbled upon Wise Blood while browsing through smokeDONTsmoke over the weekend, and I’m very intrigued by this guy’s sound. Originally from Houston, this Pittsburgh producer throws his vocals into lush, sample-heavy psychedelic environments. STRT SRNS lifts you from start to finish. He recently did an interview with the guys over at the Pittsburgh [...]

Will Stratton – New Vanguard Blues

Mix of the Month favorite Will Stratton recently released New Vanguard Blues, a ten track compilation he’s put up for sale on his bandcamp. Will was one of my favorite musicians at Bennington, and his acoustic lines really shine through on this record. You can catch him live on September 12th at the Governors Island [...]

Labyrinth Ear – “Snow White”

Labyrinth Ear is an electronic duo from London who originally sent over a remix they did for Local Natives, but one listen to Snow White begged for a proper feature. This synth-driven jam hits like a cross between M83 and School of Seven Bells. You can download the rest of their material for free on [...]

Dam Mantle – “Theatre”

Dam Mantle is a producer from Glasgow who just sent over a track from his upcoming EP that will be out this September. He plays with pitch shifted vocals, flying them like a kite through a windswept dubstep atmosphere. I love the hints of Kode9, and if you’re a fan of Mount Kimbie/Gold Panda then [...]

Dreams

Dreams is a group out of Portugal who recently sent over a phenomenal EP they’ve just released on cassette through Seven Sons Records. They opened for Ariel Pink when he played Portugal, and I’ll be surprised if they aren’t headlining their own tour by the end of the year. You have to give this tape [...]

WHO WE ARE

Dipped in Dollars (D.I.D.) is the brainchild of Chief and Danger. While attending a crazy liberal arts college in Vermont, we realized our mutual love of righteous dance music, art, and the people behind them. D.I.D. exists to share this love with you and hopefully turn you on to something new. More about the brains behind the brawn, here.

This site exists to promote artists, if you hear something you like, think about throwing the artist(s) a few dollars, buy an album, go to a concert, show them you care. If any artists or official people want us to take any of our links down, just shoot us an email and we'll take care of it. Happy Listening!
