GENESIS FM

GENESIS FM

The first solo album from the member of the Working on Dying collective is proof that BNYX® is even more compelling when left to his own devices. The multiplatinum producer born Benjamin Saint Fort built his reputation making otherworldly beats for the biggest rappers on the planet (Yeat, Travis Scott, Drake). But the first solo album from the member of the Working on Dying collective is proof that BNYX® is even more compelling when left to his own devices. On GENESIS FM, the Delaware native uses techno rhythms and prog-metal bass tones to breathe new life into the sound of contemporary rap. “Get on your feet right now! Stretch! Have some kombucha!” the comedian Mandal warns on the intro, preparing listeners to ditch their phones and dance. He’s not lying: On “HunchO STEP!,” Quavo’s early Migos flow fits perfectly over the percolating beat, while “I wanna know ;)” recruits Clara La San and Big Sean for a Miami bass throwback straight out of So So Def Bass All-Stars. The curveballs keep coming, from the juiced-up sample of Röyksopp’s “Remind Me” on the Kid Cudi showcase “EVERYWHERE I GO (REMIND ME)” to “Fallen,” which pairs Don Toliver with chill-out lounge trance.
