New York, NY (Top40 Charts) "Crash One" recently released in October, is the first installment in Dante's story. Influenced by the philosopher of the same name, Dante creates his own 'Inferno' through music.
The project merges sombre and subtle piano melodies over hard drums and cryptic new wave lyricism. The story details the initial plummet into darkness one faces through the pain and confusion caused by the unknown, which is the dark undertone of "Crash One".
Inspired by one of two near fatal car crashes that Dante suffered, the tape begins the story of indulging into 'inferno' with a combination of new wave Hip-Hop and deep, thoughtful lyricism. Lo-fi sounds and excerpts from a cult leader, Jim Jones (of the People's Temple) play throughout, acting as one of the many sonic and lyrical metaphors found on this artist's first aesthetic journey, "Crash One".
