“I wish I could say that there’s some magical way to get better at this stage of the process, but trusting your ears remains the biggest piece of advice I can give. If it sounds good, it sounds good.”
Hip Hop
There’s a creative heart here, one that sees Pac Marly toy with the very structure of the music, moving seamlessly from melody to rap; meeting a slight dance-hall bounce with the darkness and integrity of authentic hip hop.
Whatever you’re doing right now, grab some headphones, turn up the volume, and let the blissful good vibes and unity of this single rain down around you.
Absolutely worth the time it takes to experience. Listen loud. An album-full of confidence and alternative, angry and dark anthems.
An electronic dream, ambient and poetically uplifting – Menes Rebazzar Kedar balances realism with optimism on this beautifully complex, eclectic new album.
Leading with refreshing insight, humble tones and intelligent writing, the album offers a wave of authenticity, talent and professionalism in an age of over-simplified genre loops and repeated ideas.
Man-E Man’s latest EP offers three original tracks designed and daring to take on 2020 with absolute style and confidence.
It didn’t seem necessary to evaluate anything, only to sit back and enjoy the song – a professional and enjoyable accompaniment to any deep thinking session or your day in general.
From the opening chaos and melodic distortion of the soundtrack, through a bold and confident introduction, James delivers a heavy, intense flow, and an anthem of a track that effectively breathes energy and optimism into the classic hip hop landscape of self-confidence and ambition.
Bringing through perhaps his most stunning, multi-layered soundscape yet, and fusing this with a quickly addictive, anthem-like vocal line – offering both melody and spoken word in rhythmic, infectious doses – Double Up takes hold from the offset; and refuses to let go until the journey is over.
These are hip hop hits for the modern listener, and the album in full makes for an eclectic yet welcoming, calming playlist of fresh expression and finely crafted vibes.
The whole thing sounds fit to grace the hip hop landscape of these final moments from 2019, and at the same time, it works well to introduce the vocal tone, writing style and intentions of a hard-working New York artist.
