Listen To: Hype Williams - 'The Narcissist II' Black Is Beautiful Album Preview
By: Mike Harounoff
Hyperdub dropped a new Dean Blunt tape of new Hype Williams' music last night to celebrate the artwork and tracklisting announcement for new album 'Black Is Beautiful'. We're not shy about our obsession with the near mythical Tottenham/Berlin based two piece - ever since first stepping foot into their strange world back at the tail end of 2008 we've been hooked, doing our best to follow their every move: we've got the vinyls, we've got the tapes, we've been to their shows, a poster hangs from our wall, our itunes is clogged up with every piece of music of their's we could find - shit is real. This introduction to the new record seemingly shows a slight change in vibe, slightly more accesible and slightly more direct all adding another asset to the strange world of Hype Williams.
