LA-based TOKiMONSTA is someone worth checking out. ("Toki" is Korean for rabbit, and "monsta" is exactly what it sounds like). She's on Flying Lotus' label, Brainfeeder, and true to form, produces intricately-textured, jazz-influenced glitch-hop. For the most part TOKiMONSTA manages to weave paradoxically languid but driven soundscapes, starry-eyed but not sappy. Last year's Creature Dreams features Gavin Turek crooning breathy R&B vocals above, TOKiMONSTA delivering rapid punctuation below.
If this appeals, make haste and download this free 12-track sampler from Brainfeeder!
