Sonic pleasure is the only way to describe Oneo Fakind’s latest drop on the 20th of October called ‘Medicinal’. The duo is from Toronto, Canada, and serves us a real electronic handpicked taste in sound. The duo describes itself as an eveletic electronic experience. Formed in 2017, the artists like to fuse ambient and psychedelic electronics with hip-hop and trap, with their projects pushing listeners to share their darkest secrets.
Starstruck is an understatement when it comes to this track. Medicinal is a song that opens up a portal into the sweetness of unfamiliarity and creativity. The song is so sonically rich, it feels like a million genres sewn into one custom-made, dark and glittery gown by aliens! The overall sound of the song is dark, mysterious, and packed with drama.
It feels like a song you can play during a space race among infinite light and planets. The soundscape is a dark ethereal one with an undertone of daunting darkness. The sound is a mix of slow and fast rhythms with a sonic melody that tingles your senses and touches your soul in its deepest part. The musical arrangement is astoundingly rich, with a lot of gradual introductions to different instruments and sounds including a lot of drums and cymbals. There are a lot of thunderstorm sound effects, trashy metallic sounds, some sorrowful and magical violin, and a hard-hitting slow coming up in the song. A perfect intense galactic journey into the world of infinite sonic possibility!
