Keys N Krates are back with another incredibly solid EP that’s guaranteed to make you Miley Cyrus no matter where you’re at. The Canadian trio have been around for a few years but have really grown in popularity over the last year with this release on Dim Mak Records serving as perhaps only another rung on the ladder of success. A little about Keys N Krates from their soundcloud
Starting as a mainly live act doing live re-works of rap and house tunes, the group eventually moved into making their own beats and translating those into their live show. The result? A blend of rap beats, trap and electronic music played live before your very eyes. Keys N Krates collage raw samples and twist them with live instrumentation, creating a truly unique live dance party.
I’ve personally yet to experience the Keys N Krates live show but @lewdite fans will know I’ve been big on the livetronica setup for years… really, that’s enough to motivate me to see any group. Super bonus: the music is tighter than a hipster’s pants coming right out of the dryer. I’m talking tiiiiiiiiiiight.
It’s short and sweet, so you really should just give it a listen through and go HAM real fast while nobody is looking. Track number two, Dum Dee Dum, is my favorite by a narrow margin, but all the tracks are pretty damn good. You can bet this EP will be a staple in trap sets for the rest of the year so check it out and let us know what you think on twitter!
140 characters in these streets and I’m here chilling smokin’ #hashtags.
