Rhyme Skeme
"Adapter" is a song from the new Ollie Twist album MDLXV (1565) that sports a high octane, futuristic synthesized sound. The lyrics are sporadic; dropping lines on archaeology, science & technology with effortless intensity. The chorus is a mash-up of cinematic themes and metaphorical aspects of adapting to new geography. Laced with dark low-pitched pianos and a high-energy tempo, "Adapter" is a short but sweet cut designed for the forward-thinking hip-hop listener while staying relevant to the albums overarching theme. Underground Rap music with substance is back! Combining electronic and acoustic textures with fanciful wordplay, MDLXV constantly raises the bar keeping listeners intrigued and entertained from start to finish.
