A sinister organ paves an ominous, thrilling path for Hex Cougar’s Halloween-inspired edit of his Gesaffelstein flip, appropriately deemed ‘Hexifornia’. A haunting sample forebodes the inevitable fate of purgatory as the shivering barks of distant hellhounds masks an electrifying intergalactic riser, dropping seamlessly into the addictive melody of echoing sirens that has decimated crowds like the black plague over the…

Auckland, New Zealand based producer montell2099 has sneakily contributed an astounding amount of influence towards the trap genre over the course of the past 5 years.

His latest release ‘Shock’ is no different. thook drops listeners into the streets of Istanbul where historic beauty and exotic aromas excite your senses from the outset.

On a par with the Santana riff in DJ Khaled’s ‘Wild Thoughts’, ‘Do You’ is my favourite example of a guitar sample used in the most bizarre, unforeseen way.
