[MP3] Rippps – Hue

From the Rippps’s Hue EP that dropped August 3 via Alpha Pup Records:

Since it’s Collaboration Week on RBMA, we’re thrilled to host the premiere of a new musical partnership between two Academy alumni. Dutch keyboardist and pianist Niels Broos and UK electronic music producer Hyroglifics first met at RBMA Montréal in 2016 and are now coming together as Rippps for an EP on Alpha Pup Records. The record’s title track, “Hue,” is emblematic for its kaleidoscopic, rubbery bounce, blending slick synth work with deft electronics. You can hear the influence that working with RBMA studio team member Thundercat had on the duo. As Broos recalls: “He is one of my musical heroes. I remember him walking around the studios and sometimes he would come in and start vibing with us. I found this super inspiring. It also gave me some healthy nerves that made me push my musical ideas a lot. Jamming with him also gave me a lot of new musical ideas, and since he’s such a genuinely funny dude, it made us remember to also put humor in our music – something that I feel you can hear in the EP. Some of the songs are so over the top in their quirkiness, it’s almost funny at some points.”

[MP3] Gorillaz – Lake Zurich

We won’t lie. We didn’t get all the way through the latest album by Gorillaz but we liked this joint from it. Y’all??
