“Can I continue?” asks US-rapper
K-The-I??? over the hard hitting “Android
Porn” vocal remix by legendary UK producer Si Begg,
that is now released on Equinox Records from Berlin.
After a successful 12” single with remixes by Mochipet,
Fulgeance, Playpad Circus and Geste,
and a well received animation video produced by MuscleBeaver,
this is the last release connected to Kraddy’s Glitch Hop anthem
“Android Porn”. And isn’t it true,
that a rap version of this classic tune is what everybody has been waiting
for?
So, the answer to K-The-I??? definitely is “Yes,
you can!”. With his incredible flow and his abstract style that
moves from fast to slow, K-The-I??? and Si Begg
have created a dope, yet unconventional and futuristic hip hop track,
that should be found in many DJ’s playlists soon.
While the 10” features the main rap version and the original Si
Begg instrumental remix of “Android Porn”
on the flip side, the digital release additionally contains an alternate
mix of the vocal track where Begg added even more bass
giving it a more dubby and electronic feel. Furthermore, instrumentals,
dub versions and acapella are included and will definitely please the
DJ’s.
Selected Feedback:
“Android Porn is massive, will definitely play this out
when i can.”
