Eminem and Rihanna aren't the only ones who are dealing with "Monsters," the musical masterminds of electro-pop-hip-hop-rap group Timeflies have some demons they're dealing with, too. The pop-rap duo teamed up with the guest vocals of Bristol-based singer-songwriter Katie Sky, unleashed their brand new music video for "Monsters," the third official and fourth overall single off of their upcoming debut studio album "After Hours," which will be released on April 29th via Island and UMG Recordings, and it is currently available for pre-order on iTunes.
Timeflies taking over the music scene since late 2010 has proven to be more than just a one-note Internet sensation since then and has definitely been a rewarding experience. The 'electro-hip-hop-dub-something' duo consisting of Producer Rob "Rez" Resnick and vocalist Cal Shapiro. Though they got their start in Boston, the guys are originally from New Jersey and New York, respectively, and are currently living in Manhattan. Using elements of pop, hip-hop, electro, dubstep, and rock, Timeflies aims to escape genre limitations.
Their goal has always been to make music that people can connect with. Though Resnick and Shapiro co-write all melodies and lyrics, Resnick's passion for his music is apparent in the way he speaks: a rapid-fire, fervent kind of way that gives the impression that he's constantly thinking in rhythm, notes and chords. Though Resnick is chiefly responsible for mixing beats and the synth in the background of tracks, he is equally as comfortable with the piano, drums and guitar - a testament to his musicality. His academic and practical understanding of classic musical theory also permits him to stray from the norms and thoughtfully defend what he's doing.
Now the multi-talented duo hit us with yet another new track for "Monsters," this time slowing up from their previous hits. "Monster" has a light sound that's not over-powering and a smooth beat in the background to complement it. What also makes this track amazing is that Sky has the sweetest sounding vocals I've heard in a while. Overall, the song has that traditional Timeflies sound, but in a good way. It's a sound they know listeners like. Without doubt, another brilliant track, mixing the perfect voice of Sky with the vocals of Shapiro. Their infusion of pop, hip-hop and dancefloor music will keep everyone excited and going long "After Hours."
