Logan Garrett Shares “Aliens Exist”
Logan Garrett’s latest release “Aliens Exist” featuring Mobsquad Nard and Killa Kyleon is an intriguing and distinctive blend of two seemingly disparate genres: southern gangster rap and Drum n Bass. While rap collaborations with DnB producers have been commonplace in the UK, it’s not something that has surfaced with prominent American rappers, until now.
Mobsquad Nard and Killa Kyleon’s delivery on this track is impeccable. The fast-paced, underground street rap style of Mobsquad Nard from Jacksonville, Florida and the highly regarded rap skills of Killa Kyleon from Houston, TX, are a match made in heaven. Logan Garrett’s unique take on Drum n Bass sets the tone for an exciting and energetic track that is sure to have listeners moving.
The fusion of these two genres might seem like a strange combination at first, but it’s an arrangement that works surprisingly well. The track opens with a dark and ominous introduction that sets the mood for the hard-hitting southern gangster rap verses, seamlessly transitioning into the heavy Drum n Bass beats of the chorus. The track is a testament to Logan Garrett’s skill as a producer and his ability to blend genres in an innovative way.
“Aliens Exist” is a refreshing and exhilarating take on a classic Drum n Bass sound, with a rap twist that elevates it to another level. Logan Garrett’s work on this track is truly impressive, and the collaboration with Mobsquad Nard and Killa Kyleon is a match made in musical heaven. If you’re a fan of either genre, or just appreciate the fusion of two different sounds, “Aliens Exist” is a must-listen.
Aaron makes music about meaningful topics that rocks and grooves – and sometimes it even skanks on a rock steady beat!
His new song ‘Geeks’ has been released on all major music platforms on November 15th. It is an anthem for the heroes of the digital age: computer nerds, also known as geeks. It is driven by an off-beat ska guitar, a sticky bass line and a groovy brass section. The icing on the cake is a jazzy saxophone solo.
“I have always loved Ska, I even saw the Specials, the Selecter and Madness live in their heydays”, says Aaron. “I chose the topic although I am not a geek myself, but I have a lot of sympathy for them. Geeks are often frowned upon because they can be socially awkward, but they are the ones who are building a better world. So I think they deserve an anthem.”
The music video is mostly made up of typography, minimalistic ASCII graphics and heavily pixelated images – it surely looks geeky! Watch it here:
Aaron writes catchy songs that are made for people who like meaningful, uplifting topics and guitar-driven, hand-made sounds. His musical journey started young but it wasn’t until he discovered Bitcoin and became so invested in it that he used music to express his new found joy.
“It’s mostly rock music, with excursions into funk, soul and other styles I grew up with. In general, it’s guitar-driven and hand-made, often with a punkish energy and beatlesque harmonies. What all my songs have in common are meaningful lyrics about being in the here and now, about transforming disturbing emotions into wisdom, about being in the flow, things like that.” says Aaron in an interview.
“I have always been making music and writing songs, starting with a punk rock band when I was 15. However, I never saw it as a career. I played in several bands in my teenage years and my early twenties, but after my media studies in Berlin and Rio de Janeiro I focused on other things. I first worked in TV production and then founded one of the first Internet agencies in Germany. I discovered Bitcoin in 2011 and became fascinated by it. I wrote five books about it, made lots of promotional videos and educational series for Bitcoin and blockchain companies, and organised events. I even wrote some songs about Bitcoin, which became quite popular in the community, like my Reggaeton about the Bitcoin Beach in El Salvador. People always liked that my songs are catchy and provocative. It was by the end of 2023 that I decided to go full in on music. It’s what I enjoy the most, so now I want to fully follow my passion.”
Since May 2024, his songs have been streamed more than 250,000 times on Spotify and his music videos have been viewed more than 350,000 times on YouTube.
