New Music: Evil Alex 'Colossal'

A The New Beatmaker Favourite at his Ambitious, Existential Best  

The New Beatmaker took an unannounced hiatus for a few months recently.

In that time a big inspiration and The New Beatmaker family member Evil Alex released his long-awaited album, which did not disappoint and turned out to be the soundtrack to the time away.

 

Alex himself describes the project as 'A strange bled of rock, electronic, dance and psychedelic sounds. A journey through the mind in the land of endless summer...'

A full review and an exclusive breakdown about the project by Alex himself will be coming soon, but in the meantime be sure to show love to a TNB fave by copping 'Colossal'.
