Crunk came and went, as most was pretty forgettable, but there are some artists out there that still fit the mould such as Modeselektor and Ghislain Poirier, and they do it so well, and An-ten-nae have been releasing some stormers, managing to mesh everything good about grime, dubstep, hip hop and electro.
Hailing from the West Coast of the US, An-ten-nae have been making waves, especially in the UK, gaining attention from Mary Anne Hobbs of BBC Radio, along with other upcoming artists Glitch Mob, Lazer Sword and The Gaslamp Killer.
Jamaican dancehall star Buccaneer features on “Warning”, adding a futuristic dancehall vibe, which is further broken down like failing machines on the additional remix by An-ten-nae & Outersect. Two instrumentals are included, “Ill” and “Get Low”, taking the mid-tempo beats to a new level with mammoth bass drops and twisted distorted electronics.
An-ten-nae, along with other luminaries like Lazer Sword and Megasoid, just maybe the future of club music.
