Iglooghost - Gold Coat feat. Cuushe [2015]

18-year old UK producer Iglooghost has generated a lot of hype over the last year or so, largely due to his addition to FlyLo's Brainfeeder roster. Acting as his label debut is a brand new four-track EP Chinese Nü Yr. According to him, the release's concept is centered around a "gelatinous worm-shaped creature...wear[ing] a witch hat called xiāngjiāo" who suffers a perpetual existential crisis and is voiced by his own family. The lead single Gold Coat features Japanese ambient pop artist Cuushe and like most of his work defies any kind of pigeon-holing. Combining multiple different pop, hip hop, and electronic trends, Iglooghost manages to deliver a coherent, catchy instrumental out of seemingly disparate elements. The track sports a hard-hitting beat climaxing with a breakdown in the second half and woven together by an incredibly infectious female vocal sample.
