Keeping it in house for our 90th release, The Rust is incredibly proud to host the next iteration of the Smigonaut discography. Having been a part of our roster since its nascent days, his music has taken on dueling forms; be it his pensive, instrumental works or his more aggressive productions, there’s a guaranteed seal of quality to each successive release. This time, the aggression is at a fever pitch across the totality of the Timeboxed EP.
A potent blend of half-time, drum and bass, and sizzling uptempo, Timeboxed feels square in the center of Smigonaut’s catalog. Feint melodic elements dot the background of the EP, with its low end and percussion on full display. It’s in-your-face and concise, putting the driving energy of each track’s rhythm in the pilot seat. From the sound design, to the 1-2 punch of powerful breakdowns and tech-heavy syncopation, Timeboxed gives us a full serving from the Smigonaut plate, and reaffirms the all-encompassing musical vision that the project has striven for since its inception.
