Shanghai Doom and Runnit are both producers that have been making quite the wave in 2021. With Runnit releasing on Quality Goods, Excision’s Subsidia, and the ever-growing Partica Artist Group, and Shanghai Doom releasing their new EP on Underdog records and a recent track on Wakaan, these artists have racked up a considerable number of fire tracks on their own, and now we get a taste of them together on Bassrush Records. Runnit and Shanghai Doom show the establishment what the underground is about with their new track, titled ‘Outsiders’.
‘Outsiders’ begins with ethereal plucks in a wide, spacious atmosphere with rich percussion that quickly builds up energy to bust down the door at the drop. Filled with bouncing plucks that pitch up and down, gritty basses and top-notch percussion, Runnit and Shanghai Doom twist the track and create a Trap 2 banger that has the energy of a house track to get you moving. The second drop is filled with elements from the first drop, reconstructed with a new beat that manages to have the laid-back coolness of a hip-hop track with the raw power of a trap track. Shanghai Doom and Runnit have brilliantly fused their own styles and inspirations into a very cohesive track that is sure to have the underground flying the same banner.
