Time slips slowly and America stays salivating over Pauly D and Clams Casino as its preferred production Guidos. The former is affably idiotic. The latter has sufficient bass. Neither are fucking with Bristol’s Guy Middleton, who has not only thrown down the gauntlet to other guidos, but also to Guy Ritchie and Kate Middleton.
Guido’s built a peerless reputation since first blooming under ultra-violet alongside Joker and Gemmy. His full-length debut, Anidea nicely bridged proper dubstep to Swizz Beats, Timbo, and R&B pop before everyone gave SBTKRT props and Joker censure for attempting to do the same thing. Last year, while the genre descended into the dregs of Vanilla Skrillex, he stayed quiet, laying the groundwork for his own label State and Joy and (presumably) working on the new headbangers ball, “Micro X/Vessel Dogs.”
More sci-fi orchestral lab shit. “Vessel Dogs” sounds like it has harp, meaning he’s out-Alice Coltraning even members of the Coltrane clan. “Micro X” practically begs to be given to a pop vocalist. Doesn’t The-Dream make mixtapes? Somebody let him or Frank Ocean know about this. It’s better than the fucking Eagles, man.
