Drink Drank Drunk: Cola Drunk’s Give Me A Coke!

I don’t have particularly high expectations when looking through Bandcamp. There is just so much, and so much not-all-that-good music. Seeing an album called Give Me A Coke! from an artist named Cola Drunk felt like a waste-of-time in the making…is this gonna be a beat tape, or some kid from Omaha’s vaporwave project? Surprise, surprise…it’s actually pretty good! It’s an electronic collection highlighted by sonic conflicts – like the thumping, blow-out beats nestled against softer tones on “Diving,” or the warped digi sounds joined by the sample of a woman singing on closer “Kabuki Girl.” Other moments are more straightforward – the hoppy “Electronic Sound,” the spacey “Space” – but Cola Drunk works best when catching the listener off guard, like the scream-filled “X.” Get it here, or listen below.
