Protohype ft. Micah Martin – Livin’ It

For a while there I hadn’t heard anything from Protohype, but then he stormed back onto the scene in the last few months and he just dropped a very solid new EP. One of the tracks off of it, “Livin’ It”, really stood out for me and I think it’s probabaly the best one. There’s that heavy dubstep sound that’s a bit like a cross of Datsik and Megladon, but also some skilled integration of vocals which I hadn’t heard before in a Protohype original. He’s definitly refined his sound and production skills since the last time I listen to his music and it’s contributed to a much cleaner, more dynamic sound. Some of the synth work sounds almost like Jauz which makes me wonder if Protohype will try his hand at some material that trends towards that sound which is becoming increasingly popular. Now that would be hype worthy.
