8THS, 16THS

Sheffield production prodigy Lloyd SB has long been a secret weapon of the underground instrumental grime scene. Opening to a cacophony of warped snares, the A side swells early on with a glistening soundscape, providing the perfect build thanks to buried mechanized percussion before pushing its rhythmic elements to the forefront. 8ths, 16ths almost completely removes any trace of melody in favor of unrelenting kicks, twisted snares, and glass shatter sounds. Princess Anna is a chaotic blend of 8-bit bursts, rapid-fire arpeggios, and affected cymbals. - A1. 8ths, 16ths?B1. Princess Anna
