Los Angeles-based electronic producer Etc! Etc! has returned with a new EP entitled Wicked. The rowdy, well-rounded release is out now on iTunes and streaming on both Soundcloud and Spotify.
Clocking in at just over twenty minutes, the six track release features production collaborations with Bro Safari, Salvatore Ganacci, Ricky Remedy and Jesse Slayter. Enriching the boisterous beats are vocal features from Fatman Scoop, Sanjin and Hawkeye.
Just like anyone who has had the pleasure to see him throw down live at Mysteryland USA, EDC Las Vegas, Mad Decent Boat Party, or countless other festivals this past year can assert, Etc! Etc! is true to his stage moniker in that he does not stick to one subgenre. Accordingly, Wicked has a little bit of everything for listeners.
After establishing himself as a master of moombahton and one of the main purveyors of festival trap, Wicked sees Etc! Etc! flexing his production muscles across the spectrum of bass-heavy electronic music. The new EP reveals the young producer's true versatility as he enlists everything from Ragga-tinged vocals to Arabian soundscapes. Listen below.
In an interview with Run the Trap, the producer explained "with this EP I just wanted to express myself and be able to make everything that makes me me and be able to dance and flow--I think this best defines me."
Marking the artist's Dim Mak debut, the new release picks up where the artist's first single of 2015--"Supa Hot Fire" featuring Tha Trickaz which came out via Firepower back in March--left off. As Dancing Astronaut points out, most of 2015 saw the artist lending his production skills to countless remixes on behalf of both OWSLA and Mad Decent this past year, so it's about time fans got some more original material from the frequent favorite of the bass-driven dance music festival circuit.
Etc! Etc! has a few remaining tour dates left this year, including a stop in NYC during the city's annual Big Week festivities leading up to New Year's Eve.
