Sometimes the new In Sound comes from Way Out! And in the case of Saint Petersburg, Russian native BMB Spacekid AKA Dmitry Semenov, Way Out means the Northern-most city in the world.
But in these broadband days, hip hop is played on a global field and we’re used to names emerging out of the (Sound)cloud(s) from Europe’s most Northerly coordinates.
BMB Spacekid is next up, having attracted one of 2015’s fastest rising rappers, 20 YO Virginia native GoldLink with his smoothed out sub-heavy, G-Funk. The kind of beats that fit snugly with GoldLink and his self-titled ‘Future Bounce’ sound. Not to mention GoldLink’s outsized MC persona, which he describes as “Rick James meets Justin Timberlake (*NSYNC days) with Backstreet Boys and a little D12 and Tupac.”
BMB and GoldLink collaborated previously on the internet-slaying ‘Playah’ (listenhere). The rappers other collaborations with producers like Kaytranada and Sango and his ‘The God Complex’ mixtape reaching 8 million plays on Soundcloud and counting.
Kicking off with a quote in the Russian language, the latest hyper-coloured, low-riding delight from the dynamic duo is sure to get similar attention.
Dmitry won national DJ competitions in Russia at the age of 14, and his DJing and production has already taken him to share stages around the world with heroes HudMo, MF Doom and Wu Tang Clan. With his previous releases receiving UK DJ support from the likes of Skream, Huw Stephens, Maribou State, Toddla T not to mention his friend Kaytranada playing him in the mix for Benji B, we’re looking at a new beat scene break out.
