‘Young Money,’ the latest single from San Francisco-based artist Xay Cole, is an electrifying, genre-bending track. Off the album “21st Century Wrist,” this track is a sonic rollercoaster, thrashing wildly through a landscape of pulsating synths, distorted beats, and frenzied melodies. Xay Cole’s innovative production style, which they handle entirely in-house, results in a sound that’s both futuristic and frantic.
While “Young Money” may induce sonic whiplash, its unpredictability is also interesting to say the least. Xay Cole’s bold experimentation catches the listener off-guard proving Cole cannot be boxed in. You are drawn to a sound or part in the song only for it to dissipate and reassemble into something entirely new. The constant fluctuation keeps listeners on their toes, making the song both exhilarating. With “Young Money,” Xay Cole proves themselves to be a lover and creator of electronic music’s avant-garde, pushing boundaries and defying expectations.
