From the depths of electro-goth rap despair comes The Witchtape, the latest collaboration between Nacho Picasso and Blue Sky Black Death co-maestro 88 Ultra. The supporting cast on this particular descent includes Avatar Darko, Child Actor and Steezie Nasa, among others.
88 Ultra (also known as Kingston) is one half of production duo Blue Sky Black Death, the outfit responsible for some of Seattle’s most memorable hip-hop of late (see: Nacho Picasso). BSBD has a knack for churning out atmospheric and nefarious digital soundscapes, building off certain on-trend production values in a way that channels the oft gothic-like cloud cover of the Pacific Northwest. Sirens continues in that mode albeit reigned by 88’s hazy sensibilities alone.
