Brrrap! Magazine

The new EP from Rotterdam’s Noiz Boiz, “Zwarre Bassen, Zware Beats”, is out now and available for free download via their website. And yo, you need to check this out. On both the MC side and the beat side, things are dope. Mucky handles a majority of the beats, but others such as Hayzee, Gomes and Dion47 also add sometimes, but never disrupting the flow of things. There are uptempo tunes, more relaxed ones, but overall its extremely grimey and has more punchy bass and beats than the wobbly dubstep kind.

On the MC side, things are solid too. XL does his thing and goes in without some fake gangsterish threats or bragging about designer sun glasses. Plenty of other heads swing by for some verses too, such as Skinto, Zwart Licht and Boef & de Gelogeerde Aap, and that helps keep things interesting. Top it off with the host of things, Don de Baron, who I think makes the whole thing fun (hard not to like someone shouting out Brrrap! Brrrap!). Some might find him a bit too DJ Khaled-like, I think overall his hyping works out on the album.

Pretty dope release here, grimey, not fake, interseting, and it bumps, what more can you want. Overall I found Track 6, Tegenstand my favorite and also find myself wishing I’d made it to their release party over the weekend, heard it sold it up. Big up guys!
