like a side project of this type of vibe with rap

playing your music for friends out here in Tahoe and they love what you do! "I love this song, and look my girlfriend is almost dancing, that never happens!"

Lecture

Your darkest mystery. A cybernetic caustic shadow that oozes in your memory. What is the last whisper of a future world as it collapses? That whisper is Kill The Messenger, the debut single from Ramble, a cinematic return-to-form, of Montana heavyweight Hannibal Hayes.

Hayes pours a lifetime of anguish into a seething, rippling electronic hotbed of pulsing bass rhythms and alien melody, drawing immediate comparisons to the electronic scores of Vangelis, and the movie scores of Trent Reznor’s work with filmmaker David Fincher. Provocative, the purely instrumental track conjures flashing images behind the mind's eye of things that have happened, and have yet to happen. Like an implanted, unsettling, memory.

Kill The Messenger’s headbobbing sorrow is as much home in a movie theater to the title sequence of a psychological thriller, as it is to a long dark night of driving alone in an unfamiliar city. A track that demonstrates a staggering range, Kill The Messenger, is a captivating opening salvo that cements Ramble as a project to watch.

Ramble - Kill The Messenger

These days – people gotta lotta shit to say, 

‘Specially when the shit don’t go their way – they sign on and complain; 

Or find a page where they can place the blame, 

Anything in range to ease the pain. 

 

These days – everybody be so quick to judge, 

Diggin dirt up on ya just because – They wanna hold a grudge; 

On anyone – not just the ones they love, 

Whatever they can do to catch a buzz. 

   

Snap a pic – matter of a fact take two, 

Post it on the Gram from someone else’s pad you paid to; 

Then go and act like Onlyfans is shameful, 

Jealous of their paper hop on Tinder build page lookin like fake news. 

 

Find love – tell the world how their the one and only, 

Tweet about your family life at home when;  

Most the time you spend around the dinner table playin on your phone, 

And wonder why your hashtag heartbroken. 

 

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la la la – you’re lyin to yourself 

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na na na...  

 

They say – there's 2 sides to every story, 

But they tend to choose the side that benefits their self-absorption; 

Regardless of the facts they all support it and before ya know it, 

They be walking around raving like they were always for it. 

 

Then they get on socials and they floor it, 

They spread misinformation about some shit that they just imported; 

Get called out by the masses and abort it, 

Then play victim and twist it into a wad of knots until they feel important. 

 

Who are they – They the ones be runnin their mouths, 

Been rippin your name to ribbons just to come up from your clout; 

So you confront em bout some shit that they found, 

And now they spooked knowin the forgeries will land the rat back in the pound. 

 

All the fools who choose to rumble with the zoo crew lose, 

Dude’s news gonna be mumbled through a loose tooth; 

You try to say you’re not to blame and you claim, 

That you were framed but at the end of the day.

Destroid - Raise Your Fist (Lecture Remix)

After years of promoting local artists and creating a vital community of musicians in Western Montana, local legend Hannibal Hayes, better known as the multifaceted lyricist and producer Lecture, has labored tirelessly as founder of Bitter Roots Recordings to continue his cultivation of independent music in the Missoula, Montana scene.  Despite collaborations across multiple genres, the versatility and depth of Hayes’s dark and orchestral compositions have remained mysterious to those unfortunate enough to not bear witness to his dynamic live performances.  It’s a mystery that Lecture's high-octane production values and lyrical precision solve without hesitation.

To pigeonhole, or merely articulate, Lecture’s textured output is difficult to accomplish in words.  His early catalog has channeled the ragged metal stylings of Lamb of God or the industrial churn of Static-X into electronic and hip-hop production, collaborating with the experimental (and, in the author’s estimation, handsome) likes of Mr. Moo (Milo Hayden).  Such aggressive and headbang-worthy musical dimensions nonetheless incorporate the lyrical dramatics of Tech N9ne, enhanced with the earworm hooks of Timbaland’s most luxurious sounding output.  Utilizing an eclectic knowledge of guitar, keyboards, and symphonic instrumentation in his compositional duties for Bitter Roots Recordings artists Sh, Ramble, and Bohemian Trap City, Lecture’s output strives for the same prodigious accomplishments as Hans Zimmer or Danny Elfman.  It’s little secret why Bitter Roots Recordings has achieved such an immediate and organic rise: community members from all walks of music creation believe in the vision of the project’s leader.  That leader is Hannibal Hayes, but when he’s on stage, you surely know him as Lecture.
