Bay Area’s Bassnectar Drops Bass And Mayhem With Fever Ray And Zion I’s MC Zumbi!
Hot damn this track is highly dangerous. Any one exposed to this will have their minds warped and reality seriously altered.
Bassnectar, Amorphous Music and Child’s Play are proud to present the new album from one of the most diverse minds in the electronic genre. Since the release of the Billboard Top Electronic charting “Underground Communication,” Bassnectar has exploded – selling out 40-show tours and playing to thousands of people a week with barely a night off. Recent remixes from electronic / hip hop heavyweights Diplo, Z-Trip, and Ghislain Poirier and headlining status at festivals like Lollapalooza have helped grow Bassnectar’s already massive cult like fanbase.
The new album, “Cozza Frenzy” is an amalgamation of music that combines dubstep, electro, hip hop, and all styles of dirty digital bass-heavy music. A work 3 years in the making, this collection of songs is rich and eclectic. Genres are turned upside down, sliced into half time, and combined with one agenda: to delight your ears. While the live shows are explosive orgies of sound and light that literally turn into mosh pits, the album explores not only the frenzy but also the meltdown…lush, expressive melodies, and playful combinations of sound are just as much a trademark as the insane thickness and heaviness that pervades each song. It’s like a variety show: some freakish songs for those moments of complete abandon, and other more melodic moments for those moments when all you want to do is dissolve into thoughts.
Highly Recommended!
