Elysia Crampton’s experimental electronic music unearths deep personal truths in surprising places. Her earlier work as E+E turned heads by finding something sublime and alien in edits of pop hits by the likes of Justin Bieber. Crampton’s first album under her own name,?American Drift, is a four-song, 30-minute set bringing together crunk, trap, cumbia, spoken word, crickets, and blaring radio station identifications.?American Drift?runs deeper when you learn about the ideas that inform it: The Bolivian-American producer described the album as an investigation of her adopted home state Virginia’s history, of brownness, of colonialism. As the bubble for mass-market electronic dance music was about to burst, this individualistic approach distinguished Crampton as a renegade on the rise. –Marc Hogan
Elysia Crampton通過實驗性電子音樂揭露那些隱藏于不為人知之處的罕見秘辛。此前她曾以E + E的名義工作,通過剪輯Justin Bieber的流行熱曲,發(fā)現(xiàn)其中令人贊嘆之處和怪異的風格,這使得她的作品引人注目。Crampton第一張自己制作的專輯《American Drift》,包含四首歌,時長30分鐘,融合狂克樂、陷阱樂、坎比亞、口語、蟋蟀和刺耳的電臺元素。當你了解到這張專輯所賦予的思想,此時American Drift 就具有了更深的含義:這位玻利維亞裔美國制作人認為這張專輯詮釋了自己所移居的家鄉(xiāng)弗吉尼亞州有色人種殖民主義的歷史。隨著大眾市場電子舞曲的泡沫即將破滅,這種個人主義的做法表明Crampton的反叛精神在逐漸顯現(xiàn)。
