exhale02: Moments

by Controller 7

supported by

Ryan Evans HTX There are moments here that remind me of instrumental Beastie Boys. Favorite track: i was standing when i played this.

Pete Sasqwax With its driving double bass, relentlessly rhythm taps and soaring sinewave synth, "the wind" picks out precisely why this is a contender for the year's best: unity through diversity.

Albums consisting of short tracks can seem like ensemble pieces with memorable cameos but lacking coherence; not so here. The tracks flow beautifully, lasting precisely as long as is necessary to make their point before giving way to progress the journey onwards.

A masterful work from a master of the craft. Favorite track: the wind.

Evan Another great installment that rivals its predecessor. Favorite track: this reminds me of something.

paddington4 This is an amazing instrumental album that's fun, emotional, and banging. Listen to it! Favorite track: your living pace.

about

"You are that same person?"
"I am the same person"
"Are you going to do that again?"
"I'm going to do that for the first time. I haven't gotten there yet."

Seemingly simple, yet more complicated than intended, "Moments" is the result of a broken version of myself. The intro sets the tone. I am the same person, yet I haven't gotten there yet. This record is perhaps the most "me" record I have ever done, but is also me trying things for the first time. Life took a toll on me this past year and I went through some heavy personal loss. My usual routines fell apart and connections were harder to make. instead of the familiar motivations, I found myself getting lost in a different way. This record is a series of escapes. While it works as a whole, it is more a collection of individual moments. The ding clears your ear as you move on to the next moment. It's hopeless and hopeful. Broken and fixed.

The "exhale" series is something I started as a challenge to myself. Each record being a different challenge.They also serve as a snapshot of where I was at that time. exhale02 was primarily recorded between June 2020 and May 2021.

I think this might be the hardest album Buck 65 has ever made. Not an ounce of fat on it. Every single thing about it is dope. But then every single thing about King of Drums and Super Dope is dope too. Still this might be my favourite of the bunch. I'm just happy Buck is back and making all this dope ass hip hop for us. Arrrgghh it makes me so happy. beatjesus
