There are a few artists who have stormed onto the scene in full force this year, and there’s no denying that both PEEKABOO and G-REX are at the top of this list. While the former has collaborated with Bassnectar and wev and released on labels such as Wakaan and Jadū Dala, the latter has teamed up with the likes of Hekler, TYNAN, and Kai Wachi and has released tracks on Never Say Die, Kannibalen and TWONK. There is no shortage of heat coming from these two, and they acknowledged each other’s dominance by collaborating on a massive remix for ATLiens’ ‘Witch Doctor’ earlier this year.
Yesterday saw PEEKABOO and G-REX come together once again in an original that can be described as a fury of freeform bass. Both artists have a signature minimalist sound that focuses on heavy bass lines and underground wobbles, and their latest track titled ‘Babatunde’ released on Wakaan shows listeners exactly why these two are a match made in heaven. The artists waste no time creating an eerie atmosphere before building into a brain-melting drop that can only be fully appreciated with a good set of headphones. The second drop takes listeners on an even wilder journey accentuated by gut-wrenching sound design and hypnotizing percussion. Simply said, the newest concoction from PEEKABOO and G-REX is a must-listen for all bass lovers.
