Still keeping with that flowing feel seen in their other works, and it had back to back to back, hit after hit songs. I listened to this album maybe 10 times over in the first week it came out. This close friendship and their unmatchable collaborative chemistry culminated in their latest record, “New Moon,” released on January 20, on Youtube, and January 21 on Spotify. They collaborate on almost every song, and even with other artists within their group “Exociety” like Airospace, Rekcahdam, and Scuare, who are all incredible in their own right, but that’s a whole other can of worms.

Like the connection in their music, Bill and Rav are best friends, and and are featured on most of each other’s songs. In my opinion, it makes them even better, and it gives the songs a connection to one another.

If you listen to the whole album without shuffling it, all the songs bleed together into one cohesive piece. One thing that Bill and Rav like to do with their albums is create a certain flow to it. Bill’s 2014 record “Ramona” and Rav’s 2015 piece “Beneath the Toxic Jungle” are their most popular works, and can easily hold their own against the best today. This just scratches the surface of the variety in their library.Įach of them has a record that is instantly recognisable to their style and sound.

Perhaps you are in the mood for a thriller movie-esque storytelling journey about a serial killer? How oddly specific of you, but “Good Luck Chuck” has you covered there, too. Is it “sad boi hours”? “A Better Place”, and “About Last Night…” should be put on repeat. Looking for a chill song? Try “Black Coffee”. There is such a variety to their works that you’re sure to find a song for any mood you are in. Heavy nostalgic tones and references to video games and anime like Dragonball are also commonplace. Not much of it is “hype up music.” The jazzy undertones to many of these beats create a unique style that is almost instantly recognizable. Bill and Rav’s art has a very lo-fi feel to it. Yet only now are they receiving the recognition they deserve for the beautiful music they make. After listening to their music, the image I had in my head of every hip hop artist out there was completely shattered.īill and Rav have been making music since the days of Newgrounds and Napster being the best places to release music. One day this past summer, a podcast I listen to featured two guest artists, Kill Bill: The Rapper, and Rav. Most of today’s popular songs to me are extremely repetitive, and it doesn’t feel like there’s any craftsmanship or passion behind it. For a long time I felt that it was all the same, and that it wasn’t good music. Let me be the first to say, I was never a huge fan of rap or hip hop.
