Black Futures – Riches (Music for Nations/Sony)
 |
| Black Futures - Riches |
One of my favourite artists of
2017 are picking up where they left off in 2018 with another razor sharp single,
their first for their new label Music for Nations. ‘Riches’ is a less abrasive piece
than previous singles but the smooth beats and luxurious melodies in the verse
are beaten in to submission by the NIN sized beats and bass of the chorus. As
always, there’s a semi-military feel to the rhythm that makes you want to march
on to the dance floor and then it’s all about fists in the air and singing
along like some wonderfully weird mix of Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine and
Chemical Brothers but with an underlying sense of the unrest that goes hand in
hand with being alive in 2018. Black Futures really are the mirror to the
modern world and it don’t look pretty – don’t break eye contact though, it’s
important that you see this…
