Bobby Obsy – Rusty Gate

Bobby Obsy – Rusty Gate

Über den japanischen Vinyl Dienstleister QRATES ist diese fresche Instrumental Hip Hop Platte erschienen: „Bobby Obsy – Rusty Gate“. Das Ziel der Crowdfunding Aktion, die zwischen November und Dezember 2018 gelaufen ist, waren 100 Kopien. 125 sind es dann im Endeffekt geworden. Der griechische Beatschmied Bobby Obsy erzählt mit 17 entspannten bis melancholischen Tracks die Geschichte des myteriösen Vinyl-Hunters William Heist. Für diese Geschichte hat er passenderweise oldschoolige Boom Bap Beats mit Samples alter Jazz- und Soulplatten gebastelt. Prädikat: Schöne Geschichte und solides Debüt. Meine Wertung: 8/10. Favoriten: Theme Song, Madeline City und Mystery Man.

Wer gefallen an der Story und vor allem an der Musik gefunden hat, der kann sich das Vinyl bei HHV Records, VinDig oder Vinylism zulegen. Jetzt aber erstmal viel Spass beim reinhören!

»This is a story of another world. In this world the currency is vinyl records. Everything is related to music. William Heist was considered one of the best piano players but the music industry took him down. He was left broken, paralysed. The system betrayed him. After he got picked up by a group of outcasts, the Wei monks, he acquired supernatural powers. In the video you see the character wearing a pair of headphones, which is attached to his spine. This mystical piece of equipment enables the Vinyl Hunter to siphon the music of any vinyl record he touches into his body. The music enables him to walk again and perform powerful combos and moves. He becomes a vigilante, the so called „Vinyl Hunter“ aiming to end the corruption of the music industry. He is after the big names and their precious vinyl record fortunes and the more vinyl records he adds to his collection, the more powerful he becomes. Cool huh??«
