Benda explodes in sound on masterfully produced EP, "Hostile Homicide"
Pushing the limits of his creativity, Benda has served up an absolutely explosive new EP titled Hostile Homicide just released via Bassrush Records. Read on as we break down our thoughts on the album, as well as a background on this artist.
Benda's latest EP, Hostile Homicide is a masterclass in high-energy, bass-heavy dubstep-inspired music. The EP's lead single, "Homicide" featuring Puku, dropped earlier this year to rave reviews, setting the stage for the rest of the five-track project, and we can confidently now confirm that the rest of the record has undoubtedly lived up to the hype. If this happens to be your intro to Benda, these five songs will surely turn you into a superfan.
Fusing rap lyrics and subtle hip-hop elements with his signature dubstep-inspired style, Benda is creating his own lane in the music industry. He refuses to settle for anything less than expressing the full range of his creative sphere, and it shows in the intense, hard-hitting tracks on this album. From the moment you press play, it's clear that these tracks are engineered for the mainstage. Benda's meticulous production sets the tone quickly and decisively, leaving no room for subtlety or nuance. This is music to turn up the speakers and go hard to.
Despite its intensity, Hostile Homicide is not without its surprises. The EP's standout track, "Kingdom of Hearts" showcases Benda's versatility in the production that holds more melodic beat but still manages to pack a punch. While there are no frills when it comes to Benda's music, the EP still manages to keep things fresh with unexpected drops and intricate, layered stylings. Hostile Homicide is a testament to Benda's talent as a producer and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of dubstep-inspired music. With this EP, he solidifies his position as a force to be reckoned with in the electronic music scene, and we can't wait to see where he takes his sound next.
