The opening cut to Dead or Alive finds Cooper Circle in signature form — muted vocal fragments, skippy drum programming, and layers of dusty chops stitched into a tense groove. Closer Look plays like a curtain raise: brief, sharp, and cinematic, setting the stage for what follows.

Closer Look

Black Lodge is a global collective of producers and rappers united by a shared passion for crafting dusty, sample-based boom bap. Drawing inspiration from the golden era of hip-hop, we blend raw, gritty beats with sharp lyricism, creating a sound that resonates with both classic heads and modern listeners. Our music is a journey through the vinyl crates, where every crackle and hiss tells a story. Join us as we push the boundaries of boom bap, one track at a time.
