Rave music. No build up. Just pounding bass, spectral synths, and insane laughter straight out the gate. That’s how Oakland producer GHOSTMiLK opens up their self-titled EP, their very first EP period, featuring mixing and mastering work by Madre Guía and Obstac. The brutal four-on-the-floor of “DODECAHEDRON” gives way to stuttering beats, alien wah wah, and mini tractor beams on “Power የuffs ✿”. But there’s nothing quite like the healthy dose of dopamine all us 90s hip hop lovers will get from “Thugs luvin hugs,” which flips the classic “Thuggish Ruggish Bone” by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony into a warehouse-ready gangsta footwork jam. Speed it up, slow it down, rinse, repeat.
