Milo Mills first unveiled his "Ocean Gang" instrumental through DJ Complexion's Future Beats Show one month ago, winning over listeners with a hard-hitting-but-still-smooth sound, and today he's decided to unearth the work formally through Trapdoor Records, a burgeoning UK label focused on instrumental delicacies such as this one. "Ocean Gang" succeeds sonically for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is the acute sampling of Lloyd's "Do It Again" setting the foundation for the track. The crisply screwed vocals usher in a succession of starry tones that attract themselves almost necessarily to the sound that rises, giving myriad feels alongside the electronical sensuality. With pounding bass and intricate instrumentations, Milo Mills supplements the stretched vocals, turning the track into a buttery banger of sorts, and the flavorful dichotomy of sound is one that will attract fans of either kind of vibe.
