The frenetic Aberdeen mad scientist returns with another maximalist soundscape.

Following the lunacy of Lockah’s rave-trap hybrid ‘Please Lockah, Don’t Hurt ‘Em’ is ‘Sly Winking Usury.’ While it draws from the same anything-goes mentality, there is a just a sliver of white space, making the bright lights that much brighter.

Lockah weaves together chip-tuned melodies, rave theatrics, and rap accents like scene-stealers Rustie and Hudson Mohawke, but with a general disregard for nuance. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing: isn’t the best part of the rave when you just let go?

Stream ‘Sly Winking Usury’ below; it appears on the Please Lockah, Don’t Hurt ‘Em EP, due on November 7 via Mishka. The Ninja Turtle homage of a cover and the tracklist follow.
