New Hello Ego Bootleg Is The Summer Scorcher We've Been Craving

Hello Ego - Coming In Hot Flip

Hello Ego – Icon instructor by day, left field bass producer by night.  His new latest bootleg of Andy Mineo & Lecrae’s ‘Comin’ In Hot’ is funky, fresh, and bursting at the seams with subphonic bass goodness.

Right off the bat, we’re greeted with a fat kick and some dirty low-end bass.  The original lyrics of the song come in from the get-go and shine clearly through the mix, highlighting the masterful ways that Hello Ego engineers his music.  The entire song is a lesson in creative synthesis and engineering, with a fresh palate that sits firmly in the left-field bass genre, but also offers a fresh smorgisbord of original sound design elements that give Hello Ego a distinctive flair.

The engineering and synthesis aren’t the only fresh ingredients here.  In a world filled with a copy/paste algorithm of intro, verse, build, drop, bridge, verse, drop, outro, this bootleg offers a fresh arrangement style that flows as smoothly as it sounds.

Rather than leaning on his production prowess and the age-old ‘percs go faster = build’ to control the energy flow of the song, Hello Ego uses the spaces between lyrical segments to signal to the listener when to go feral and when to calm down.

All in all, Hello Ego delivers a fresh take on a popular hip hop song.  It hits as a standalone track and works effectively as a DJ tool, created with enough spacing between lyrics that make mixing simple and uncomplicated.
