D.C. Producer Alex Young Drops His New Single "Projection" For the New World Tapes
Choosing EDEN’s collaborative project as the perfect way to relaunch himself, D.C. based producer and DJ extraordinaire Alex Young unveils “Projection”, the first single of this new chapter.
A synth-laden, electronic soundscape complete with suspenseful bass and progressive knocking beat patterns inspired by classic Hip-Hop, Alex creates the perfect lo-fi, atmospheric aura. Not to minimal and never overbearing, the measure moves elegantly with an earnest and subdued performance that blends rap and vocals in an emotionally present way.
Crafting music years before his prime, Alex Young has amassed great amounts of acclaim from the early days of his Soundcloud releases, steadily progressing in ability and stature to a point that has seen him work with the likes of Halsey on her critically acclaimed platinum album Manic. Alex continues to strike a balance, translating his talent and musical ear into the DJ aspect of his art, bringing a euphoric energy that’s a welcomed addition to what EDEN is creating with the New World Tapes compilation.
The latest endeavour from the Irish superstar, New World Tapes sees him collaborate with some of the finest boundary-defying artists from around the world resulting in a multi-genre body of work. With a new release every week exclusively on his label, the eventual 12-track project will be available also on vinyl. A beautiful gift despite the interesting times we are in, EDEN’s curation of artists allows a truly innovative collection of music that adds meaning and purpose in the face of the treacherous global landscape at present.
