What might stand out most on his new record is how Crackazat feels totally at ease with all these different styles and how he blends his voice seamlessly in the tracks to add depth, meaning, and energy. This might be most apparent on the title track, which is built around a syncopated\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlfa\u003c\/i\u003e-esque key loop. There's gorgeous vocal chops and warm arpeggiated synths in the background that give the track lots of texture, while the percussion shuffles along in perfect swing with the song's energy. Add some lovely strings, leads, and a moody breakdown, and you've got yourself a fine piece of dancefloor magic. On \"Burnin',\" Crackazat channels his inner raver with '90s inspired percussion, a honky piano loop, and some very catchy and quirky vocal chops. He freely sprinkles claps and snares around like it's Christmas and the big breakdown has the kind of madness-inducing energy that gets every clubber going! EP closer \"Dark\" is Crackazat in his most contemplative mode; a vibe he always loves to explore on his Heist outings. The bass is deep, the kick heavy, and the synth licks are mellow but powerful. His voice and effects give this track a beautiful extra dimension that would even make\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eFred Again\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ejealous.
