FREE SHIT: WHETHAN & LOUIS THE CHILD "HONEY" MIXTAPE
You have to listen to this. It starts off really good, then you keep thinking it'll stop being good, but it doesn't. Listen to it right up to the end, it's ace. It's probably inadvisable to listen to this at work, unless you work in a wankatorium. We could say more about it, but it's best you just experience it for yourselves. Turn the volume way up.
“HONEY” Tracklist:
1. Chop It Up
2. Monkey Bars
3. Happy Birthday
4. Drip Drip
5. Tengo Mas
6. Synths with Bangs

HISTORY LESSSON ON LOUIS THE CHILD
In the five years since high-school students Hauldren and Kennett met at a Madeon concert and subsequently formed Louis the Child, the two Chicagoans have enjoyed an eye-popping ascent as artists, producers, and remixers — establishing themselves as genre-defying innovators and an exciting young voice in music. They have racked up more than 100 million streams of their singles (breakthrough hit “It’s Strange” featuring K.Flay, “Weekend” featuring Icona Pop, and “Fire” featuring Evalyn), remixes (Chance The Rapper’s “All Night,” Miike Snow’s “Genghis Khan,” and Ty Dolla Sign’s “Blasé”), and the tracks on their well-received 2017 EP Love Is Alive. Kennett also helped create the beat for one of 2016’s biggest hits, “Closer” by The Chainsmokers, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 12 consecutive weeks and has racked up over one billion streams. Louis The Child have also appeared at such major festivals asLollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Ultra Music, and Coachella.
