Mortality Is Lit!

Blockhead

Dense, sample-heavy trip-hop that finds humor in the void. A cinematic stroll through a gritty, neon-lit city where every corner holds a strange memory.

It's the perfect soundtrack for when you're feeling a little bit deep and a little bit over it.

A sophisticated blend of urban loneliness and dark, existential wit wrapped in warm, dusty beats.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the percussion on track 10 mimics the disorienting buzz of a sunrise after a long night out.
The ironic juxtaposition of a cheerful vocal sample against a heavy, melancholic bassline in track 1.
The sudden shift into a more psychedelic, swirling synth texture halfway through track 9.
