KID SMPL - GET HYPE EXCLUSIVE MIX


KID SMPL – GET HYPE EXCLUSIVE MIX


Kid Smpl - Get Hype Exclusive Mix by Get Hype Collective


It’s a true pleasure to have Kid Smpl supply us this mix and we’re glad the Seattle based artist has decided to grace his talents on the Get Hype page. On the back of a number of E.P releases including the “Digital hands EP” and his “Ghostsuit EP” Kid SMPL is a regular lately on the mouths of many in the industry.


The feel of the music on display from the Kid Smpl in this mix is mesmerizing. It opens up with inducing us into a feeling that we’ve found the sound of the quintessential dream like state or something closer to the entrance to the pearly gates. The set picks up beautifully with tricky tempos and beats in and around the centre of the mix but only after steadily carrying the listener with an enchanting combination of vocal rhythms. The ambience is second to none and carries a haunting undertone, demonstrated so well in Kid Smpl’s “Understand” and “Healer”. This is all good and well up to the inevitable point of breakout, the calm before the storm. Kid Smpl plunges into some technically inspired loops and shows his versatility in the beats and as we approach the last third of the mix. Not scared to get his hands dirty we experience a breadth of varying styles and time before we find ourselves being moved into more peculiar states of musical mastery. Towards the back of the mix we’re plunged into a sick downpour of Grime lyrics from Trim’s “Listen now” that really puts the hat on the monkey for me. The beauty of forty minutes and modern technology combined with Kid Smpl’s inspired incentive once more making it all worth it, providing an insight in the kids range and intentions for his music and the future for all our lucky ears. Hopefully we will be hearing more from him with forthcoming releases.
