We've heard the sound before, but not the artist as this is the first track from this Montreal Production team.
"It's Killing Me" has that '90s glitch influence, vocal manipulation that leans into atmospherics, dub beats and underlaying synth pads -- but it's about time the rule book got torn up.
There's an unhinged quality that haunts the track courtesy of a manipulated synth pad (which enters around the one-minute mark) that could potentially bridge the mid-heavy dubstep that has taken North American clubs by storm and the subtler, experimental garage-inspired beats that find prominence in the UK.
"It's Killing Me" isn't the redefinition of bass/future R&B, but it succeeds as a fresh and takes on the genre that falls neatly in between the tastes of clubbers and headphone junkies (2-step, postdub R&B??).
