As youngsters, MC&Hammer were kicked around social services, parented by an assortment of synthesizers, drum machines, and modular racks. We like to think that as much of a nightmare an upbringing like that must have been, it ultimately played a crucial part in the creation of GCR double-0-7, ‘Cheap Kills’. The Brooklyn duo peel back their layers of audio knowledge and employ their unconventional recording practices to construct two original compositions- ‘Time Slip’ and ‘Fair Game’.
Brainwaves are besieged by ‘Time Slip’, which boasts slippery synth melodies and tightly timed percussion, all served over a thick bed of restless bass. Prepared with a generous dose of secret spice, ‘Fair Game’ wines and dines us with enough rhythm and groove to leave anyone hot and bothered. NYC native MANIK jumps in with the good company to remix ‘Fair Game’, blending a stylized patchwork of acid with a zero gravity low end that makes us feel like we have moon boots on (and how cool were moon boots!?) This three-course ensemble is best digested on the dance floor. Enjoy GCR007
