AQUO by AQUO
Composed by a duo of producers, AQUO is one of the most driving pieces of vaportrap in recent years, using its aquatic themes as an advantage to create percussive strikes which almost sound as if they come from the sea itself.
The structure and flow built with these hits are almost entirely unique as they push each song along, utilizing the synth-based backings of each tracks to create something which moves along quickly without sparing any of the power put into every note that fills the rhythms.
The introduction of higher-paced, harder hitting breaks such as tracks on SWRDFSH also allow these sections of the album to stand out as they come along, adding to the layered experience given to the listener throughout each track.
Worth a listen for any fan of this niche, yet interesting style of music, both past and present.
