The new EP from Clams Casino, the 23-year old New Jersey producer introduced recently who makes tracks for Lil B and Soulja Boy, is now streaming from his Soundcloud page. The Rainforest EP is released on Tri Angle Records (read a great interview by Daniel Harrison with the label founder Robin Carolan) next week.
The five-track EP plays like an ambient release filled with spectral movements and blunted hip-hop beats. Quite a head-trip truth be told. As Volpe explained to The Fader – “..when I put them together I got like a nature/rainforest/tropic sort of vibe. It’s hard to explain, but seeing landscapes, colors like light green in my head.” it works on that level. Beats explosion.
