clipping.

With an unconventional pairing of technical rap flows and abrasive noise, experimental trio clipping. approach hip-hop production from largely uncharted territory. Though the group morph into something new with almost every release, they hold on to their core of experimental and often-confrontational energy. Debuting with independent cassette and digital releases during the early 2010s, their proper debut album, CLPPNG, appeared in 2014, and was followed by the Afrofuturist space opera Splendor & Misery in 2016. Two related albums, 2019's There Existed an Addiction to Blood and 2020's Visions of Bodies Being Burned, were heavily influenced by horrorcore, and 2025's Dead Channel Sky drew from cyberpunk and '90s techno.
