We couldn’t be more excited to release this. Vegas Diamond
debuts on TWG with this, his second, more condensed, and deeperly dirty
swaggering experimental hip hop. We’re hugely proud to be introducing to you, ‘Hyper’.
Trance-inducing and as thick as sludge, Vegas Diamond’s sophomore
is a concise record of his great talent. These four tracks meld together
aggressive groove with hypnotic melodies, tessellating around a defiant rhythm and
pulsating with confident and a unique voice. From the emotive opener ‘Ion’,
to the off-kilter and crunchy churn of ‘Visor’, to the vicious beats of ‘Real’
and the final, melancholic laments of ‘Cube’, every inch of ‘Hyper’
feels, simultaneously, eclectically self-contained and continuously
conceptual; a constantly evolving stream of ideas.
Stylistically, ‘Hyper’ sees Vegas Diamond traversing the
musical ideas of Monodeer and Nullsleep, and setting up shop somewhere in the
middle. The melodies are genuinely otherworldly; atmospheric and seeping
emotion, cascading over the dense textures that make the release sound so huge,
and the beats hit like sledgehammers on concrete, loose but still incredibly
strong.
Groove, dark affecting melodies and hypnotising composition;
don’t miss out on one of the most innovative and unique LSDJ releases this year
has seen.
