Chris Lake & NPC – A Drug From God [Black Book]
GRAMMY®-nominated, chart-topping house artist Chris Lake collaborates with NPC on the ambitious single “A Drug From God.” Lake creates an ominous, futuristic soundscape that escalates to spine-tingling heights as the distinctive vocals of NPC extend a thought-provoking invitation:
Money, Power, Beauty, Fame, Choose your weapon to beat the gamem Money is power and art is fraud, And love is just a drug from God.
NPC is a new AI girl group from Grimes, who continues to hone the concepts of her recent albums, Art Angels, which charted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Alternative Albums tally, and Miss Anthropocene, which Rolling Stone hailed as “a work of ambition.” Her 2012 album, Visions, was named as one of “The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time” by NME and won the Electronic Album of the Year Award at the Junos in her native Canada.
Fans have been clamoring for the release “A Drug From God” ever since this live performance snippet from Lake’s summer tour was posted. “This new ID…has everybody talking,” said YourEDM. Dancing Astronaut hailed it as “fire.” Stereogum, NME, The Line of Best Fit, UPROXX and numerous other publications also took note.
