Dead Perry – Acoustic Shadows (WEB) (2025) (320 kbps)

When we last heard from Bay Area producer DEAD PERRY, he was riding high on the critical success of “The Art Of Re-Animation” album. That album was a re-imagining of legendary Hieroglyphics crew emcee Casual’s work from his “Big Head Science” album.

However on the forthcoming “Acoustic Shadows” album, as the title implies things get a bit dark. As he relays “when I made (The Art Of Reanimation) with Cas, I wanted to cater to the specific sound that Hieroglyphics has, but put my spin on it without making it too dark (though there are a couple of dark gems sprinkled throughout). I knew that my next album was going to be a solo LP and I wanted it to be something special. Dark and grimy has always been my style of beat making so I wanted to showcase that with this record.”

However, the title also has a double meaning to the producer. “The term Acoustic Shadows comes from a Civil War phenomenon that refers to a sonic blind spot. Due to geographical obstructions disrupting sound waves you could think you are a great distance from the battlefield while you could already be in it. It also refers to my style keeping to the shadows and out of the limelight, when I only appear in photos wearing a mask, it’s not because I’m on that post MF Doom craze, it’s because I came from graffiti and graffiti artists let their art be their only face to the public.”
