A new Troyboi EP? Vindata & Laxcity’s return? These are old news! The hot stuff it’s right here, right now.
Okay, sorry for the abrupt start, I’m going to take a step back and explain to you what’s happening. It occurs that, behind this brand new Phuture Collective release titled ‘Revival’ are two of the most formidable minds out there at the moment. On one side there is him, his majesty chromonicci, on whom we’ve now spent thousands words here on FUXWITHIT and who I believe doesn’t need further introduction. On the other side we have one of the men of the moment who holds 2021 in his palm: I’m talking about capshun of course, aka Mr. Bonsai aka probably the only human who has ever carried a crossbow to a virtual dj-set.
So what has emerged from the clash of these two stars? A supernova of course.
I am not exaggerating when I say that this is one of the most successful collaborations of recent times. The level of fusion and interweaving of the two artists’ styles is just phenomenal. One second you feel like you are listening to a chromonicci’s song, one second later to a track made by caphsun, one second later you have absolutely no idea because everything is so damn well balanced. If you know the two artists, I am willing to bet that you have already created a mental projection of what awaits you but believe me, this time reality overtops fantasy. Another thing I feel compelled to praise is all the experience, in terms of production, that I perceive in this tune. ‘Revival’ is not only praiseworthy in terms of sound selection, mixing and design, but the storytelling is impressive too. Perhaps it’s even the aspect that I admire the most. These four minutes pass in the blink of an eye despite they have taken the luxury of keeping the intro over a minute long. Without even realizing it you’re already at the last bar.
Stream ‘Revival’ here on SoundCloud or on your favourite platform, and be sure to check chromonicci and capshun’s B&L Beat Smash episode they threw back in November.
