This track was created specifically for Neon City 2 (2012) in Lolo, Montana. The first Neon City was a fantastic mixture of all types of energetic beings in the middle of the forest, the line up consisted of mostly dance music such as: hardcore, trance, house, happy hardcore, etc. This year the majority of the line up was a bit different, we had an incredible selection of dance music as before but also a more diverse mixture of artists that capitalize on quite a few more genres such as: dubstep, psytrance, hip hop, future bass, glitch, etc. Which inspired the overall structure of the song to evolve from trippy heavy dubs into a more dance incorporated style building up to the climax, or something like that. I hope you all enjoy, much love!!! :)

Neon City

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.
