Southern California trip hop revivalists, 16 Underground, recently announced their debut EP, Drifting Deeper (Strange View Records), and today they’re sharing one more early taste of it with the crystalline new single “(Song 4).” Drifting Deeper arrives this Friday, August 9th, and offers the perfect introduction to 16 Underground’s dreamy, beat-driven pop. 

“(Song 4)” follows lead single “Chasing a Comfort” and provides another cut skittering breakbeats, thick bass, and hazy guitars–but 16 Underground’s mastery of atmosphere is rivaled only by their way with a hook, and vocalist Ashley Tarin brings a healthy dose of warmth amongst the icy cool instrumentals.
