Excellent lo-fi electronic hip hop pop. Beautiful tunes, male & female vocals, simple melodies…themes of love & the complex emotions around love ending...which makes it sound sappy but it isn't. Vocals are a highlight. Collaboration between rapper Serengeti, indie folk singer Renee-Louis Carafice, and producer Tony Trimm. Really good, play play! FCC 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
1) *Hopeful, tender vocals over ethereal synths & faint guitar.
2) Crunchy electronic melody. Lyrics re: lost love.
3) FCC Female vocals, toy keyboard melody over industrial electronics.
4) FCC Love the opening delivery. Ends with great synth & guitar swell.
5) FCC Upbeat & dancy. Constantly repeated refrain: “the boredom of you, the freedom of being fregan”
6) FCC Opening harmonies, then some great Serengeti rhymes
7) FCC Memories post-breakup, Serengeti vocals.
8) FCC Female vocals, hypnotic rhythm. About leaving for a better place.
9) *Nice percussion, Serengeti raps, fem singing at end.
10) **All about you and your DEBT. Strong rhythm, unfortunately has a kind of ridiculous chorus.
11) About divorce. male & female vocals over sparse rhythm.
12) * FCC Crunchy beat, synth melody. Raps about new beginnings in love.
