Holy shit; alright so before I start rambling, just hit play, like, just hit play... Ok, so anyway (you hit play right?) this beat starts out like most of Ahmi's beats tend to; some next-dimensional sample from the bowels of the slow-riding groove center known as trip-hop, which usually makes most of us just cock our eyebrow and mutter something along the lines of "where the fuck does this kid find this shit..." But then the beat comes in and let me be the first to tell you, the coordination between the sample splicing and rolling hi-hats is absolutely ridiculous (this kid has has a way with his high pitched low-reverb hat-lines that make it sound like he stole wind chimes out from some ancient chinese god's tomb...man, like... I'm telling you) and overall this "simple beat" seems to strive to be anything but. Overall the only thing I feel we could say against it is basically the same personal vendetta we have against all of Ahmi's recent work; why so short? One has to imagine a kid as insane as this could expand so much further down the line with these creations; what happens when an Ahmi beat hits the four minute mark? What does Ahmi making a bridge to an instrumental sound like? These are questions that Ray and I would probably kill people to obtain the answers to...
And just because we love you, behold; the super secret redux...
