EAR TO THE STREETS: Xaphoon Jones

Xaphoon Jones is the man behind the music of Hip Hop duo, “Chiddy Bang” and a slew of remixes that are causing quite a buzz online.

With a hefty amount of musical influences in his beats many of which he has cut up and used in his music, such as the Gorillaz, MGMT, Hot Chip, Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin, and more, it’s no wonder people are taking notice. However, Xaphoon manages to add a new twist to his remixes, stamping them with his own flavor, which makes all the difference.

From producing mixtapes to his own beats and productions, Xaphoon Jones is erasing the lines between genres and bringing the music world that much closer. Check out some of his remixes below, and hear for yourself why Xaphoon Jones should get some of your love!
