Nevada City, California’s Malakai Torres, also known as Edekit, has been consistently pumping out grade-A trap heaters for over a year now, with pristine examples like ‘Just a Scratch‘, which we premiered, and most recently ‘Hat Pins‘, out on Below The Surface. Cultivating an “in your face” aesthetic with maximum attitude, and no-holds-barred levels of prowess, this is a man hell-bent on catapulting his sound to the front of people’s attention. Usually being done playing games is a sign of growth and maturity, but he’s fiercely gone in the opposite direction, dropping the Piranha Plant EP, a 3 track homage to the iconic plant ever-present in all Mario Brothers games. Today, we’ve had the pleasure of premiering ‘Done’ off it for your listening pleasure, right here on FUXWITHIT.
A mysterious air encapsulates your being from the introduction of this piece, using distorted synths that sound reminiscent of something you’d hear when ghosts and ghouls are creeping around Luigi’s mansion. As you begin your sonic romp through this ghastly affair, you’ll be greeted by fantastic sound design and an overtly cheeky energy, much akin to the feeling of jumping on top of turtles and munching mushrooms like everyone’s favorite mustachioed Italian plumber. The vocal samples will leave you in a trance as your body wiggles in all sorts of directions, almost as if the king of koopas is trying to mesmerize you into submission. Fear not though, the castle at the end is within sight, you just need to make it up the immense flight of stairs, make your most powerful leap, and grab the flag at the peak of flag pole for a max bonus. The level is over, but a second rinsing is absolutely in order. Whip-out a pair of overalls and get down with your bad self while blasting this immensely fun piece, and get your first taste of ‘Done’ below!
