Foot Village - This Song Is A Drug Deal (Clipping Remix)
New TracksCommentClipping drops a remix of the Foot Village track "This Song Is A Drug Deal," which is a strange track for anyone to remix--much less Clipping. However, with their new full-length, Midcity, Clipping hasn't exactly proven itself to a bastion of traditionalism. Rather, the trio combines harsh noise and hip hop in a pretty unique way.
"Unique" is a word that can be applied to this Foot Village remix, too. Clipping chops and twists the band's extremely rhythmic sound to create a noisy foundation for Daveed Diggs' dark, grimy lyrics. Enjoy!
