Core REX – Lucid: Amateur Dramatics

Yep, you guessed it, it’s a song about lucidity. Yet, when it comes to music I’ve always been a big believer in show and not tell…That being said the Electronic Hip Hop mix, isn’t all too bad.

The symphonic soundwaves have been produced, mastered and mixed by Core REX a Hip Hop Rapper with a penchant for Electronica from Chicago, US. I couldn’t help but think of Scroobius Pip’s advice when he advised “thou shall not listen to repetitive music” in Thou Shall Not Kill. By the time you get to the chorus, the track seems to get a little predictable, and it’s almost grating listening to the same old vocal being churned out over and over again.

There’s a part of the track where it’s slowed down to a painful rate, which, is more annoying than anything, yet, Core Rex shows a playful attitude to his music that makes it evident that he’s more than willing to have a little fun. Lucid is just one of the singles off his debut album Gloey Huew. I just hope in the future Core REX learns to lay off the harsh effects that retract away from the sound and let it flow with natural progression.
