We are once again back in the explosive Raw Tactics camp, for another explosive release, this time entering into an experimental drill zone for a fiery collaboration. We see the ever-ready vocals of Goldfinger join forces with label-founder Tigs, who provides us with a twisted instrumental showcasing, fusing mysterious, eastern strings and booming 808 basslines for a tremendous showdown of sonic wizardry.
Goldfinger however is the real star of the show on this one, as we find ourselves under siege from a barrage of bombshell 8 bar structures, insighting potent metaphors and catchy rhythmic displays to give us a real singalong bop from start to finish. Despite being a slightly shorter original, this one packs a hell of a punch and the fusion of eastern melody with grimey vocals works an absolute treat.
This is the latest in a long run of heavy hitters from the Raw Tactics camp, with the spearheaded vision of Tigs continuing to drive the label further forward around the globe.
