Before the year is over, Hudson Mohawke has one final instrumental to share with us. 

Inspired by John Carpenter’s 1981 movie “Escape from New York”, Mohawke’s synths are pretty close to the original and give you that same eerie feeling as the movie did. 

The track is featured on  the 7th annual LuckyMe Records advent calendar, which offers a free download every day from December 27 to January 6. Mohawke had one hell of a year, and we can’t wait to hear what he delivers in 2016. Check out the track below.

The Weeknd continues his unusual way of releasing singles. After giving fans a taste of “John Carpenter” last week, he quietly uploaded the title track to his forthcoming Kiss Land album. The track switches up midway into a full version of “John Carpenter.” Listen below and be on the lookout for Kiss Land later this year.
