You may remember last year that I discussed Quirome’s project Apartment D5 on a recommendation from Reyna (a/k/a “The Nude Queen“). This one is a complete 180 from that project. That’s all I’ve got to say. There’s a certain swagger-meets-revelation that comes with “Dead Eye,” his latest track. It’s dark and utilizes Auto-Tune heavily. However, there […]

I got to this one yesterday on my sick day (don’t ask), and I’m like “yes! New C.Shreve the Professor.” So, I do what I must. I vibe with it and take it all in like a big toke of musical marijuana. This high, however, it’s different that what we typically hear from the Asheville, […]
