We’re only two tracks in, and I’m already championing BoomBaptist‘s upcoming release, Boom Shakalaka. After the pleasant introduction provided by Razzle Dazzle, we get a completely different look from the follow-up single, Shattered Backboard. After a high energy, sample-laden collage of an intro, Boom drops a clean beat-flip and repurposes the main intro sample while texturing drums, synth and other sprinkles of samples around it. If Razzle Dazzle was a warning shot, then Shattered Backboard is a line in the sand, firmly stating that you’re either rocking with this upcoming gold, or you’re planning on missing out. Check out the new single and hold tight, because in slightly less than a month, Boom Shakalaka touches down.
