Opening with an inventive EDM synth electronic wave, Dirty Freud sets the tone for his new EP, โThe Villian in Someoneโs Story.โ Itโs a mesmerizing EP coming from this award-winning London-based artist, producer, and songwriter known for his 2-step garage, dubstep, hard bassline, and cinematic electronica. He has developed a genre in his EP that is futuristic, with the history of the world haunting its beats. โThe Villian in Someoneโs Storyโ amalgamates the past with the future, with realistic, deep, and dark vocals complementing the electronic beats.
Released on the 3rd of March, โThe Villian in Someoneโs Storyโ EP has five tracks, each uniquely different from the other yet continuing a storyline through the musical realm. This EP tells a story that is best unfolded through the folds of music. It opens with โPromenade,โ where a creepy and jumpy playful synth ensues with a deridingly taunting tone and a hauntingly mesmerizing voice singing in a soprano. The opening track solidifies the mood for the rest of the album by settling haunting imagery in our minds.
Beam Me Up opens with a reversed organ sound, only for the EDM to hit and Ruby Tingleโs atmospheric voice to lead to a bassline. This track is one of the most unearthly in the EP, with whispers and layered beats creating a crawling sensation. On the next 3 tracks, we hear more of those immersive layered vocals and EDM beats huddling in a seamless pattern, enabling the music to sound soulful and deep with anguish. With โThe Villian in Someoneโs Story,โ Dirty Freud has allowed us to fully grasp the toxic elements that lie in every individual and relationship with his advanced musical abilities
