This song is almost two years old, and it sounds like it should have come out in 2015. Too futuristic. my cousin YemSquad put me on Crystal Castles when I hit Atlanta during a phenomenal Easter Break last year. They are heavily inspired by first-generation video games, as you can probably tell once this song starts, but it doesn’t get old. To me, at least.

I’m about to put out a mix with some different stuff to showcase everything other than rap that I’ve been jamming, because rap no longer really does it for me like it used to. I’m liking these electronic artists more, they bring some inspiring innovation to the music game.

P.S.: I’ll give a $1 bill to whoever can figure out what the woman is saying in the song. Don’t Google it, either. It will only steer you wrong. Take my word. Also, anybody have other artists I should check out?
