SEER SEEKER shares debut album

SEER SEEKER is a groundbreaking new project that threads hip hop styles through a hardcore electronica sound. The alias of artist Nino DeBarros, SEER SEEKER has made an instant impact with his powerful sound striking a chord with listeners and earning acclaim from press and tastemakers around the world.

Dubbed “rap’s newest phenom,” SEER SEEKER draws inspiration from artists such as Linkin Park and Run The Jewels to craft his own entirely unique sound. His music cuts across various genres, offering a high-octane blend that was first revealed on his debut single “GONE TOO LONG” at the start of last year. Since then he’s racked up hundreds of thousands of streams of his music and been featured in numerous indie publications and Spotify editorial playlists.

Now he brings us his most ambitious release to date, presenting his first full-length record with the eight-track album titled TO THE CORE. Serving up an exploration of hardcore hip hop, the album pulsates with pure energy, showcasing SEER SEEKER’s determination to make a lasting mark on the music world.

Opened by “STARLIGHT,” soft piano tones drift through a delicate sonic atmosphere as gentle textures and percussive elements are met with bright vocal samples that spin a balletic dance above. SEER SEEKER’s rich vocals enter to thread elegant melodies as the arrangement slowly swells to wrap around his voice, crafting an immersive and dreamy into to the record.

“DIRT TO DUST” starts with an extended instrumental introduction as eerie flute tones hover in a hazy aesthetic before a darkness descends as SEER SEEKER’s voice enters. Laying down biting lyricism via powerful delivery, he snakes commanding rapped flows as the crash of drums and rising intensity of the instrumentation results in a gripping sound.

His debut single “GONE TOO LONG” presents the full force of his pioneering sonic output as crunching guitars and pounding drums set up an energising ride. Over the metal-inflected backing, his vocals serve up his razor sharp rapping to deliver a dose of potent musical energy packed full of raucous and explosive tone wrapped up in exquisite sound design.

New single “LIGHT IT UP” keeps the energy high with thumping rhythms and gritty guitars underpinning SEER SEEKER’s emphatic vocal performance. Erupting into an epic chorus capped by memorable hooks, it’s another sensational display of his enthralling sound that sees multiple genres collide in spectacular fashion.

The album closes with “FOUND IT,” kicking off with a spacey soundscape of winding synth before the snap of the beat ushers in a slick vocal style of impactful melodic stretches that perfectly balances raw sonic power with catchy lines. Flowing through a moody scene of deep synth tones and punching electronic beats, it’s a superb finale to a thrilling debut record from an artist who’s entered the music world with a compelling sonic vision and highly original sound.
