It's been a minute since my last NoDoz profile so allow me to introduce one of my favorite new artists for 2008, instrumental hip-hop beat maker Metaform.
Metaform's debut full length Standing On the Shoulders of Giants is the closest thing to Dj Shadow's seminal Endtroducing... since Rjd2 released Deadringer.
Metaform harkens back to 1995 with his soulful sample-based beats and moody atmospheric backdrops. Check out "Crush" below for a preview. The track utilizes a familiar sample from "Private Number" by William Bell & Judy Clay (see "Playaz Club" by Rappin' 4-Tay) but Metaform does a nice job of putting his own personal spin on it.
