Reaper Raises The Bar Yet Again With His Aggressive Single ‘HEATSEEKER’

Victor Lovo — Sat, 28 Mar 2020 00:48:23 +0000

The resurgence of drum and bass in America has been one of the lights during these dark times this year. One name that has been leading the surge is the mysterious REAPER project. Blending elements across a variety of bass music sub-genres with a drum and bass foundation has become the bread and butter of the reaper project. We’ve come to expect his style to manifest is these chaotic and high energy drum and bass tracks that are more than festival ready. Recently, the enigmatic entity made his debut live performance at Brownies and Lemonade in LA and also dropped off his massive collaboration with fellow American DnB innovator AWOLTALK. This time, REAPER gives a heavy taste of his half-time side with ‘HEATSEEKER’.

We begin with an almost funk-like type beat combined with a deep growling sub/synth layer, providing the perfect thematic entrance for this beautifully chaotic track. Shortly after, we’re introduced to this huge sweeping synth that becomes the focal point of the buildup and contains frequencies that seem to jump out of you. After this, we’re thrown into this tumultuous half-time drop filled with machine-gun percussion elements and world-class sound design. After another suspenseful buildup, we’re thrown into the final drop, made from the rhythm of this highly aggressive triplet flow that has become a stable of the REAPER project. Check out the full track down below!

Reaper & AWOLTALK Combine Talents On Their Massive Single ‘Hysteria’

Here at FUXWITHIT, we’re huge supporters of the D&B 2020 movement, so it’s only right we give the stage to two of the biggest trailblazers in the American Drum and Bass scene. REAPER is coming off a massive 2019, starting with his debut remix of Bassnectar’s ‘Speakerbox,’ which amassed over 100k plays on SoundCloud, and finishing off with his debut EP Rapture on Monstercat. Combing elements of American bass music with the organic sounds of European D&B is the bread and butter of the REAPER project, and when merged with the punk and industrial influences of veteran American D&B innovator AWOLTALK, we get the festival-ready single, ‘Hysteria.’

Immediately out of the gate, the energy and tone of the track is set by a combination of a running hi-hat pattern and menacing sirens. Following this, the main melody is played by an almost acid-like synth which is introduced at a low pitch while slowing being risen over the next few bars. In addition to the melody, we’re introduced to the pounding percussion that carries the rest of the track. A few seconds into the first drop, and you’ll realize these two aren’t playing around. Between the heavily distorted synths and drum patterns that seem to never stay still, this one is sure to get you moving. Make sure to check it out down below!

Awoltalk & Ian Munro Mean Business With ‘Lost In U’

There’s a reason why Quality Goods Records has been getting so much positive attention as of late. The label, which is fronted by UZ, has just started its first business of 2018 with a release from Awoltalk and Ian Munro, with ‘Lost In U.’ Incredibly charged with a tangible energy running throughout from start to finish, ‘Lost In U’ stands out with its bold, bad ass low-end basslines and contrasting shards of melody that are deftly layered over the top.

Check the hype out for yourself below.
