Kick The Habit delivers a high-voltage collision of glitch hop, electro, and dubstep that refuses to sit still. The sound is defined by sharp, metallic bass design and a relentless rhythmic swing that betrays a background in jazz and progressive rock. It is music that feels like a neon-soaked adrenaline rush, characterized by 'wonky' synth lines and explosive percussion that demands physical movement.
What sets them apart is the sheer density of their arrangements. While many dubstep artists rely on simple repetition, Kick The Habit incorporates complex syncopation and instrumental flourishes like saxophone or guitar stabs that add a human, albeit hyper-processed, element to the digital chaos. The production is unapologetically loud and bright, favoring crisp digital textures over analog warmth.
Start with the 'Bitches' EP to hear their signature blend of aggressive bass and funky, mid-tempo grooves. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who wants the grit of dubstep but with the infectious, danceable bounce of glitch hop. This is music for high-intensity environments where the energy never drops below redline.
