Giant - Has a 'Glitch' with their new single
Introducing Giant's debut single 'Glitch'
Giant is the Hip Hop infused brainchild of progressive collective Archive, and we think it's well worth you checking out. For this new collaboration they decided to go ‘back to their roots’, hooking up with MC 24Vision, on ‘Glitch’ their first single to take us through a futuristic though analogue dystopian world filled with freshly cut beats and breaks.
‘Glitch’ is taken from the forthcoming debut EP, and is a hard hitting blast at modern society... a stream of consciousness taking bites out of religion, war, and the current state of daily play. All sitting on Giant shoulders’ killer punchy beats and soundscapes, reminiscent of Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy.
The future promises to introduce a host of other vocalists and guest artists as it scours forwards and takes us into stranger, darker territory. Lead single ‘Glitch’, with it's refrain “Stay strong ‘til the end of the week”, and its intense performance video shot by David Levine is great. It shows so much promise, and so much needed motivation. With the resurgence in British Hip-Hop and the climb of Grime in the UK and across the pond, there is great excitement building as to where Giant might lead.
With a career spanning twenty five years, and twelve studio albums, Danny and Darius the founder members of Archive have journeyed a landscape flitting between the Trip Hop of Tricky to Oxford’s Indie faves Radiohead. Recorded at infamous Hirondelle Studios in Bishop Stortford, Giant are finally here to do it large.
