Alt-J – Breezeblocks (# Remix)

First things first, I’m not sure if # is the most diabolically clever artist name ever, or the most face-palmingly insufferable. Regardless of that, there’s no question about the production trio’s ability to craft a tasty jam.

Led by melody and carried by some feathery synths that swell gently, it’s trap at its most sparse. So much so that at first I though it needed a bit more oomph in the way of a bigger synth or a huge bassline, but I kept finding myself reaching for the play button. Maybe it’s the pitched-down vocal that gives the track its hook. There’s also a drop of tropical coconut juice that makes it feel like something What So Not could’ve made on the come down from a monstrous night.

I’m not sure where it will fit when people want to play it out, but by itself it’s unquestionably worth your time. Check the Newcastle lads on Facebook and grab a sneaky free download below if you’re so inclined.
