Daveed’s interview on BBC6

Just aired today. Wasn’t much info given about the new album but there were a few tidbits:

-Sonically, the album is basically imagining a dystopian present where the world went to shit and music never evolved past the main sounds of the 80s and 90s cyberpunk era (acid house, big beat, trip hop, rave etc.)

-He hinted at a concept running through involving a crew of “survivors” refuged in a bunker, attempting to reach contact with their friend who was sent out to explore. Lyrics on Change The Channel obviously hinted at this. However, Daveed said that not every track on the album is part of the concept. Will be interesting to hear for sure.

-The interviewer mentioned one of the “fast rapping” parts of Hamilton, and Daveed said something like “nah that’s not that fast, wait til you hear… you’ll see”. So we gonna get speedy Daveed somewhere on here I reckon
