Emerging from the urban frost of Toronto, mxu, a beacon of innovation in the hip-hop soundscape, presents his newest creation: "Half Past Never 2." This 6-track EP delves deeper into the realm of boom bap, infused with elements inspired by the raw energy of Griselda and the evolving landscape of modern hip-hop. Each track in this collection is a testament to mxu's refined skill in blending nostalgia with cutting-edge sound experimentation, offering a fresh perspective on the genre's future.

The EP launches with "Iller Than All," a track that sets a powerful tone for the journey ahead. It's an anthem that combines an uplifting melody with the artful complexity of turntablism and effects, all underpinned by drums that demand attention. This opening salvo is a bold declaration of mxu's prowess, a perfect fusion of old-school vibe and contemporary flair.

"Inner Compass," the second track, introduces a different dimension to the EP's narrative. Here, a skillfully chopped piano loop pirouettes over a relentless, head-nodding drum beat. This composition is seasoned with sonic surprises, each element carefully woven into the fabric of the track to create an experience that's both engaging and delightfully unpredictable.

As the EP progresses, mxu takes listeners on a hero's journey through sound. Each subsequent track is a chapter in this odyssey, exploring themes of courage, melancholy, and wonder. mxu's craftsmanship in storytelling through music is evident in the way each song unfolds, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the emotions and narratives encapsulated within the beats.

The journey through "Half Past Never 2" is a reflection of mxu's own artistic evolution. It's a homage to the roots of hip-hop, while simultaneously breaking new ground. This EP is not just a collection of tracks; it's an audial tapestry that captures the essence of the human experience, encapsulated in rhythms and melodies.

In "Half Past Never 2," mxu reaffirms his role as a visionary in the world of hip-hop. With an album cover that nods to his connection with the vibrant anime brand Azuki, mxu's work stands as a symbol of the fusion between music, technology, and community. This EP is more than a listening experience; it's an invitation to join mxu on a journey through time and sound, where the past and future converge in a celebration of the enduring spirit of hip-hop.
