Lil Hank - EDM's Last Hope

Pupper producer and good boy, Lil Hank has just graced us with his debut EP, and just in time, as he's EDM's Last Hope. I'm fairly confident in saying you've never heard anything quite like this before, unless you've been to an alternate reality in which dogs played the rebels and cats played the galactic empire in Star Wars. In that reality, Dog Williams composed this as the Star Wars soundtrack.

The first track "A Young Puppo Is Born" is one of the most beautiful and uplifting tracks 2017 has heard. It is the most like any other Lil Hank track you've heard previously, whereas the following three find a more forceful delivery than we're used to. Of course with a name like "Attack Of The Mean DJs," you'd expect a brash and baleful number, and that's just what we get. It's all mechanized malevolence as it seems our pupper is up against insurmountable odds. The title track then arrives as "EDM's Last Hope" plays host to a hellacious battle between good and evil. There's loses on both sides and while the hero seems cornered and nearly defeated, his secret weapon is set free. Love wins out with "A Legend Unleashed." This finale is half ceremony, half celebration. The losses are grieved, while the win is rejoiced, at least for now. Knowing the nature of the universe, a sequel seems immanent.Fifty percent of the proceeds of each purchase go to Animal Shelters affected by hurricanes this year.
