Bristol-based producer Apollo Phox’s EP “Join The Club” mixes spacey instrumentals with tight spinning in a homage to Chuck Palahniuk’s ‘Fight Club.’
Creeping chants and boom bap beats loop through slightly lethargic fades, and DJ Rogue’s scratching in “Arson Meets Monday” is pretty on point.
At times the repetitive choruses and slow drops can feel sleepy.
The fact alone that a U.K producer can make a beat tape inspired by ‘Fight Club’ is an interesting testament to how far-reaching hip-hop culture has become.
