Transit Lounging

hate grows higher 
for those born in fire 
all that's precious 
lost in flames of vengeance 

we need to learn 
another way 
before we burn 
love is the way 

end the bloodbath 

everybody 
deserves to be set free 
those who deny it 
fight just to stay blinded 

we need to know 
hate is a waste 
we need to grow 
love is the way 

end the bloodbath 

think of what we 
fight for 
kill for 
die for 
how long and how much more 
blood, war 
what for 

hate comes easy 
for those handed small dreams 
someone's winning 
but it's not u or me 

it's just a lie 
hate is a game 
we all could fly 
love is the way 

end the bloodbath 

think of what we 
fight for 
kill for 
die for 
how long and how much more 
blood, war 
what for

After receiving valued tastemaker support from The FADER, Magnetic Magazine, Acid Stag, BBC Radio 1xtra, Kitsuné and others on 'GET YOUR WHOLE LIFE', Conrad Clifton announces 'IS IT YOU: Beat Tape (Full Circle)' - a 10-song concept piece, expanding on one of the standout tracks from the previous album.

The first single from the project is “Hi, Still Here”. The Brooklyn-based electronic artist shows considerable sample chopping abilities, as he flips a psychedelic-rock gem from the ‘70s. Not only reorganizing the original parts, but repitching the vocals to introduce a progressive chord structure. We hear a familiar creative tone, with the addition of dense pads, but this is definitely vintage Conrad Clifton. While one hears the influence of J Dilla and Madlib, clearly this isn’t new territory for the beatmaker. If the forthcoming 'IS IT YOU: Beat Tape (Full Circle)' is an origin story… we’re here for it.

“This is one of the craziest beats I’ve made. There are cymbals everywhere, and that “Hi” vocal sample just demands attention!” Conrad recalls, “I made this around the time I was working with Yelawolf, and was heavily into old rock samples. I’ve always loved blurring the lines between styles and genres. “Hi, Still Here” switches from this heavy beat battle track, to an almost romantic/thoughtful moment, before going hard again. Like a conversation, or call and response. In that way, it’s similar to “HUNTER GATHER-HER”, but it’s a totally different sound.”

'IS IT YOU: Beat Tape (Full Circle)' will be available Feb. 28th. Pre-order now at Bandcamp. https://infinitypoolrecs.bandcamp.com/album/is-it-you-beat-tape-full-circle
