TWERL & Team EZY release the genre-bending Break My Mind, a NIGHTMODE Breaks / Trap song that will melt your brain with its impossible grooves and rhythmic diversity. The collaboration is an interesting twist in the sound of TWERL, whose Trap-influenced banger Space Rave appeared on last year’s massive The Prophecy Dubstep compilation by BASSRUSH. This new TWERL & Team EZY song is a dangerous hybrid that consists of Trap, amen breaks and Wave, fueled by insane EDM energy.
The transitions made between the sections of the Break My Mind make you realize that in the age of neural networks and deep learning, there are still details in human-made music that no AI can come close to imitating yet. The more you listen to this new TWERL & Team EZY song, the more unusual the genre-blending in it sounds. Yet on the first listen, this NIGHTMODE Breaks / Trap release progresses very naturally. It’s when you start paying attention to things like the drum-pattern changes, the morphing of the reese-bass or the vocal sample manipulations that you perceive the mind-breaking potential of the song. The ice-cold keys that kick-start the song are also the ingredient that glues many of the non-obvious parts of this song. The surreal vibe from those may remind you of PC Music or the most cutting-edge works by the Venezuelan producer Arca.
In contrast to this, the amen breaks feel like they’ve been sampled from the original source. This “double-faced” nature of the intentionally digital and analog sounding parts of the song work in favor of both, making each element memorable: from the synths to the chopped vocal samples. With TWERL & Team EZY – Break My Mind, NIGHTMODE continues their series of innovative and energetic bangers. Don’t let the character on the cover mislead you, Break My Mind is futuristic, but under the hood, the track is as “human” as electronic music can get!
