Unbeknown to many outside of UK Grime scene, Musical D learnt his trade coming through the Dirtee Stank collective, producing Dizzee Rascal’s official song for the London olympic games ‘Scream’ and is set to release his 1st single entitled ‘Radar’ co-produced with his Cousin Shemzy. In a world where people are fabricating the number of views on their Soundcloud playlist, it’s hard not to take notice of a track that manages to gross 39.000+ ‘ORGANIC’ plays in 6 months.
The crisp original vocals laid down by Shemzy adds body to Musical D’s formula of simple patterns and grooves, creating a powerful track. Although the track features Shemzy’s vocals throughout, the track still has enough of a breakdown making it easy to party to, and giving it the capability to appeal to a more mainstream audience as well as an underground audience. Radar is an easy listen with cleverly put together arrangement of strong vocals. It's easy to have the soundtrack stuck in your head and find yourself singing the the catchy lyrics.
