Canadian ‘Clip-Hop’ Duo KIDCITY Release Single #2

    Back in April I did a post about Canadian “clip-hop” duo KIDCITY, who at the time were preparing to to release their debut EP. Well, that EP has been out now since May and Kelly Ann and Caleb are now ready to release their new single, “Blackened.” Their sound falls somewhere between Enya and Dr. Dre, coining it “clip-hop,” drawing on “hip-hop and electronic heaviness.” The duo remind me very much of the English 90s pop/electro duo Mono, who’s trippy electro-ballad “Life In Mono” remains one of my favorite electronica tracks to date. KIDCITY mastered their own sound in the practice rooms at the University of Toronto, where they met and became friends. “Blackened” is available to download on KIDCITY‘s self-titled EP, which you can download on U.S. iTunes HERE.
