Vizzy Zone

XV

A high-definition blend of video game nostalgia and soulful Midwest rap. Bright, sample-heavy production that feels like a sunset viewed through a TV screen.

It's like your favorite childhood video game grew up and started making soulful hip-hop.

A bright, pixelated optimism tempered by a gentle, sunset-hued nostalgia.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the Mirror's Edge sample creates a sense of vertigo before the drums kick in
The transition from the cinematic intro into the triumphant brass of The Flying V
That moment in Reset Button where the lyrics perfectly mirror the 8-bit aesthetic of the production
