block rocking, pop locking lonely c and baby prince are at it again with their latest fraiche ep on soul clap records. the troublemaking two-some take us back to 2011. it was a weekend in late august and new york city was practically under martial law. news tickers warned frightened citizens that a hurricane called irene would strike at any minute, flooding most of manhattan and williamsburg where the boys sat gleefully snacking and talking shit inside the world famous marcy hotel. with all airplanes grounded and the trains halted it became clear that lc & bp were going nowhere. it began to rain, the wind picked up and as the skies darkened, nyc declared a state of emergency.

a column of bull ants moves across the rain forest floor, constantly moving limbs shift like the tidal flow of a river. each carries a large bright leaf in its mandibles maybe twenty or thirty times its size. the column swerves around a tendril-like air duct that services a chamber below. one strays too close and slips down still carrying its leaf. it flies down the air pipe and is projected into the interior of an anechoic chamber. beads of sweat ooze down bintus grizzled brow as he continues experiments into noiseless ultra bass. if applied correctly this acoustic energy can have devastating effects.

maneuvering the perilous depths of heartbreak and ecstasy, skin towns bewitching r&b pop stunner the room approaches the elusive mysteries of desire and longing with directness and urgency. unabashedly romantic (and delightfully hedonistic), the la based outfits modern r&b may sit alongside nicely with contemporary hitmakers like the-dream or mike will made it, but they align closer to the to the freakiness of ginuwine, adina howard, and silk juxtaposed against feather-weight synth trails of new age.
