Ratking x Eric Copeland - "Gauchos"
New TracksCommentWell, here's a collaboration that's totally from out of left-field. New York rap group Ratking has teamed up with New York noise musician Eric Copeland (of Black Dice fame) for Converse's upcoming Cons EP Vol. 1. Because Copeland has been moving towards a slightly more accessible style of twisted, psychedelic electronica; the result certainly doesn't approach Death Grips', clipping.'s, or Young Fathers levels of abrasion. Still, what we get is a choppy and colorful piece of alternative hip hop that manages to come off very catchy and very cool. Chill listening!
Eric Copeland - "Cheap Treat"
New TracksCommentExperimental music veteran, Eric Copeland--of Black Dice and Terrestrial Tones fame--has a new album on the way titled Joke in the Hole. It is scheduled for release this week, and is the artist's first full-length on DFA Records.
Recently, Copeland shared the track, "Cheap Treat;" a catchy three-minute-long groove propelled by spacey synth, distorted guitar, and a very chill marimba. While the breezy piece is bookended by fleeting moments of atonality, the main riff manages to come across as incredible smooth. Enjoy!
