Zimbabwean producer, songwriter & remixer The Gobbla, best known for producing Skwatta Kamp‘s award winning song “Hey“ dropped his 7 track Beat EP ,Trill this week.
Upon my first listen I was pleasantly surprised to hear how diverse the track selection was. From the hard hitting club banging tracks like Blxck & Brxcken to the Dubstep inspired Shxckwave & Anticipxte, to the slower tempo more R&B, Elixer , to the old school boom bap beat on Too Splendid, this EP has it all. It’s hard to describe The Gobbla‘s music because it is so diverse & different to what other African producers are making but the closest description is Xaphoon Jones meets Skrillex meets Timbaland.
His talent is all too evident on this EP , every track can easily stand on its own merit & the vocal samples throughout the Trill are sublime, especially the very fitting sample of the King of Trill himself, Bun B on Brxken. I’m sure we here at @25toLyf will be hearing a lot from The Gobbla in the future. Click the link below to download Trill.
