Monty works his magic once more on his latest EP, Grind Mode, unleashing the IDs fans have been waiting for.
Monty is an artist who has blazed new trails in music — enough so that once he moved to Toulouse, France, he helped pioneer what’s called the Toulouse sound. It’s evident that since Monty hit the scene in 2015, it’s never been the same.
This year has been one for the books for Monty, with appearances at top festivals like Outlook, Secret Dreams, and Boomtown. On top of that, he’s currently taking over the US with stops in Denver, Chicago, Los Angeles, and more. With music as exquisite as Monty’s, it’s no surprise he’s been sought after across the globe.
In classic Monty fashion, his latest EP, Grind Mode, is filled with songs worthy of repeat listens. This four-track effort touches heavily on his drum and bass expertise with more than one flavor. Listeners get to hear mostly hard-hitting DnB, with a sprinkle of a more gentle touch. This combo provides the perfect wind-up with a soft landing to bring it to a close.
“Grind Mode” starts with a robust energy worth noting. Fans have been going wild when this one finds its way into Monty’s recent sets, and it’s obvious why. We can’t give enough “Praise” for the second song on the EP. Its playful soundscapes lift you out of your seat and will have you dancing merrily from start to finish.
We then take a “Lethal” dose of anger-packed beats straight to the dome. Beware, these dangerous frequencies should be cued up with caution. Last but not least, “Remedy” brings us back to earth and grounds us. Its airy and soft-hearted soundscapes, matched with notes of live instrumentals, make this the perfect wind-down for our time with Grind Mode.
