718) Rituals of Mine - Ride or Die

With a simplistic musical approach production-wise and vocalist Terra Lopez's whispery singing, Rituals of Mine manage to create a lurking, mysterious atmosphere that soothes the listener but also keeps them alert. There's a captivatingly cryptic quality to the rich lyricism in this piece, and the video accompanying it also works well as bait; it intrigues the viewer and draws them deeper in. The slow-paced, black and white music video was shot in Oakland, and Lopez claims it was meant as "a love letter to the city" where they wrote this song and most of their 2016 record, "Devoted". The duo, formerly known as Sister Crayon, has been compared to the likes of Massive Attack and Portishead for their material off of the album. Fans of this kind of sound will definitely be excited about this release specifically. Rituals of Mine have released three official remixes of the track, and each one of them brings a totally different interpretation of it to the table. You should check out Sin Fang's rework if you're in the mood for something snappy and nervous, dredg's for dark and haunting, or INDO's for funky and electronic.
Enjoy! ♪
