Bi-Coastal bass duo smalltalk have been putting their unique stamp on the underground with a sound that moves from trap to 140, experimental bass, and beyond. After blessing us with an incredible guest mix at the top of the year, the pair make their label debut. ‘Snapback’ is a wonky 140 dubstep anthem that’s gritty and addictive.
‘Snapback’ is a shadowy banger built for renegade raves, late-night forest festivals, and dank basement sets. Pitched-down and looped rap vocals give the track a menacing swagger that i’s amplified by the gritty sound design, cavernous bass, and snappy drum programming. The simple vocal is pitched, looped, and flipped giving it a catchy hook that pulls you through the darkness. The distorted basslines offer soul-shaking low end that will push speakers to their limits. Monstrous growls, shifting frequencies, and subtle ear candy round out the sound for a truly masterful 140 heater. smalltalk are one the most promising duos in bass music right now and ‘Snapback’ showcases why.
This one is super deep and dark, so probably some late-night renegade party in the woods. Or at your grandma’s birthday party. – Smalltalk
