Beatfreak Bohemia

Bassnectar

Gritty, sample-heavy glitch hop that trades stadium polish for basement dust. A murky blend of psychedelic spoken word and heavy West Coast breakbeats.

It's like DJ Shadow went to a warehouse rave in 2002 and brought a book of Shel Silverstein poems with him.

A murky, psychedelic descent into urban mystery and heavy rhythmic experimentation.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition into the Shel Silverstein vocal sample that sets a surreal, literary tone for the chaos to follow
The way the bassline in Slo Monster feels like it is physically dragging through mud before the glitchy percussion snaps it back
The hypnotic, repetitive vocal loop in Close Your Eyes that creates a trance-like state amidst the heavy breakbeats
