Dirty Freud’s new EP The Villain In Someone’s Story is a masterpiece that takes listeners on an emotional journey through heartbreak, anger, and self-reflection. The EP, co-produced with long-term collaborator Ruby Tingle, is a reflection of the artist’s personal experiences, capturing the essence of failed relationships and the resulting feelings of anger and resentment.
The EP opens with the track “Promenade”, which sets the tone for the entire project. The track features an array of playful synths and haunting melodic leads, creating a sense of unease that persists throughout the EP. The track is a powerful start to the EP, perfectly laying the foundation for what’s to come.
The second track, “Beam Me Up” is a standout moment on the EP. The track delivery an unnerving soundscape and a swelling bassline over a punchy beat that threads a sense of rhythm throughout. It’s a truly sensational exploration of the dark pop genre and a brilliant showcase of Dirty Freud’s fierce originality.
“Break Slow Fast” is a departure from the previous two tracks, featuring more intense synth-tones to create an electrifying vibe. The track features a sultry beat which is capped by frenetic buzzing synth lines and eerie vocal leads that weave amongst each other seamlessly.
“Kaijus” offers a stunning trip hop soundscape that’s equal parts mesmerising and jarring with its delicate rhythms and kaleidoscopic instrumental arrangement. The final track, “No Time”, is a superb conclusion to the EP. The track features a haunting melody and a pulsing beat, creating a sense of urgency that builds throughout the song.
Overall, The Villain In Someone’s Story is an exceptional EP that showcases Dirty Freud’s talent as both a songwriter and a producer. The EP is a testament to his skill at fusing a range of different genre and styles to make a cohesive sound that’s entirely his own. With this EP, Dirty Freud has solidified his place as one of the most innovative and exciting artists in the experimental electronic music scene today.
