"BLVCK MVNSIXN" by Key Nyata
These days, young Seattle rapper/producer Key Nyata is elaborating his mystical/nihilistic aesthetic track by track, with his debut album "Two Phonkey" imminent. Two new songs are heavily indebted to the warped-cassette sound of Florida's Spaceghostpurrp and his Raider Klan, and go further into Raider-land as Key Gawd applies his own twist. Check the severely stripped down "NX TINT" and above, "BLVCK MVNSIXN," which sounds like a sandstorm melting whatever it touches.
