A meditation on the current political climate in the United States, “Raise” sits somewhere between 90s techno, NY house, and the hybridized warehouse bangers of the future. Urgent vocals call out to “raise your voice and speak” while hard-hitting drums, booming bass, and an elastic acid line coincide to illustrate the paramount importance of addressing societal complexities and working to enact tangible change. Plus it bangs.
“Anxiety” takes on an ever- present aspect of modern life. With distressed-yet-proud vocals, crunchy drums, icy synth stabs, and swinging hats, this track fuses Chicago and NY house influences into a claustrophobic yet contagious anthem. Simply put, “Anxiety” captures a paradoxical feeling that is all too familiar in 2019.
OG Deth” is ragga for 2015. Wheez-ie twists and turns his way through genre tropes. Mixing elements of jungle, footwork, and grime, “OG Deth” bashes its way through the wilderness. Can you keep up?
Can you feel it? Wheez-ie’s 2015 update has been destroying dance floors all around the world for quite some time! “Touchy” burns its way through 90’s garage at a speedy 160 bpm. Not for the faint of heart!
“Reject” is rave deconstructed. Taking notes from hardcore, jungle, and reggaeton, Wheez-ie crafts an uplifting roller. Running hi-hats and cascading rave stabs keep the energy up well past sunrise.
Wheez-ie molds Miami bass, nü metal, and Detroit ghettotech into an introspective dance floor stomper. Gut wrenching subs compliment searing strings and bombastic vocals, fearlessly command you to “Shake That Shit.”
The title track, “We On 1” is the pinnacle of footwork minimalism. Gut wrenching subs compliment Rashad’s own vocals in this syrup laden anthem! Not for the faint of heart!
Rashad teams up with longtime partner in crime DJ Spinn for “Come On Girl.” Drawing from their Ghetto House roots, Rashad and Spinn have crafted a club banger guaranteed to destroy dance floors.
“Do It Again” brings the south to Chicago. Running hi-hats and devastating sub bass compliment a dark narrative that describes a night gone...right? “Do It Again” is a perfect example of Rashad’s commitment to innovation by cross pollinating genres with a kind of finesse that is all his own.
“Somethin ‘Bout The Things U Do” is the most uplifting track out of the four. Bringing classic vibes up to 160 bpm. Rashad and Gant-Man bring high tech soul for 2013.
