Premiere: Napolian & Dro Carey – 'Silicon City'

Cult American label Software has a habit of throwing up fascinating new voices.

Uniting bedroom talents across the globe, the imprint emphasises a communal relationship, with artists on their roster frequently collaborating.

Launching the Mixware series, Software are encouraging their artists to piece together special, intricate mixes featuring old, new and unreleased material. Each Mixware instalment will be available as a free download, alongside a limited cassette issue.

Napolian is next up. The producer has responded with a deft selection, one which intrudes upon left field hip hop while also retaining a love of experimentalism that locates 8-Bit melodies, fluorescent tones and other aural treats.

Clash is able to premiere a new collaboration, which pits Napolian against Dro Carey. Silicon City is gleeful retro-futurism, with those sharpened synths borrowed straight from the Mega Drive era. This isnt some nostalgic trip, though, with the two producers delivering a slumped hip hop beat which could only be summoned in 2014.
