Few artists who futz around in the minutiae of modular synths keep abreast of contemporary rappers and vice versa, but Aaron Triggs contains multitudes.
Swinging the pendulum all the way back from his patch cable precision of The Psychic Staring Effect and its accompanying modular rig tour, Bleep Bloop in the past week has dropped two hard-nosed remixes of Vince Staples and now Smokepurpp.
Taking on Smokepurpp and Xavier Wulf's “Fuck A Swisher,” Triggs transforms the blunt snob anthem in a slime punk roller coaster, first distorting the everloving shit out of Lil Water, then vocoding him into robotic oblivion, and finally venturing into a wild tech house breakdown. Shit's bananas. But no one can quite copy his aesthetic. An aesthetic brought to life visually by Gary Paintin, who gives Purpp the pentocular makeover.
With any luck, Bleep Bloop will drop “FUKASWISHER” next weekend at The Untz Festival in Mariposa, California. He takes the main stage on Sunday, June 2 at 9:00pm directly after the SLUG WIFE Takeover. Tickets are still available at www.theuntzfestival.com/buy-tickets.
