Just in case anyone has missed it, High Priest of the Anti-Pop Consortium AKA Hprizm has been, for the last few months, releasing
It’s all instrumental, noodling beats and odd-looping samples – exactly what you’d expect from HP.
The latest release “Ornate Coldtrain”, ALL CAPS, is a darker, sketchy piece. Bits and pieces approach and unusually constructed. Jumbled. All the tracks are snipped tight, none of them allowed to progress passed the four-minute mark. Africa meets NYC.
Hprizm “Digital Aura”
My favourite release so far is “Digital Aura”. Shorter and beatier than anything else listed, it kills it with the old MPC magic (it’s probably fuckin’ Ableton) and a sample selection unearthed from 1950. The artwork is awesome too.
