Ultra_eko – Alternate Realities

It’s been a while since we included some hip hop on our pages. It’s not like we’re avoiding any, but we were more involved with guitar-oriented music and completely forgot the other side of the music scene. Luckily for all hip-hop fans, I would like to talk about Alternate Realities by Ultra_eko. Ultra_eko emanates from South London, and perhaps his genre would be considered as hip hop, but this prolific artist explores more genres than you could imagine. Alternate Realities is living proof of my statement, but this is not the only recording by this British artist. Besides the beforementioned album, Ultra_eko released its debut full-length Off The Grid and Into The Multiverse (The Subsequel Mixes), which came out after the Alternate Realities. He also released an impressive amount of singles in between full-lengths, so if you’re into a profoundly detailed hip hip, you should consider checking out his entire discography.

Alternate Realities is unquestionably unique material worth checking out. This particular album carries fifteen delicate hip-hop tunes that are unveiling even more elements as you dig deeper into the recording. Besides the dominant presence of thoughtfully constructed rhymes and rapping segments, you’ll notice how this experienced artist includes elements of funk, alternative rock, indie rock, electronica, breakbeat, and rhythm and blues. Each composition unveils an even more detailed approach to hip hop sound, entirely decorated by various experimentations. Nevertheless, these ingredients are marvelously combined to fit hip hop aesthetics, which this wise artist follows throughout the album.

Alternate Realities offers a giant sonic multiverse, fully stacked by alternate musical journeys. No matter if you’re into hip hop or not, you’ll solely enjoy this comprehensive collection of exceptionally assembled numbers. Besides mindblowing specter of genres, Ultra_eko showcases an impressive lyrical skill through well-structured stories. These stories are about friendships, relationships, various emotions, feelings, particular moments, situations, and circumstances we all been up to at some points in our lives. Ultra_eko incorporates loads of sarcasm and a good sense of humor, but he also includes some seriousness along the way. Alternate Realities is a wisely constructed collection of intelligent hip-hop numbers composed by an experienced musician who perfectly understands how complex music works. Alternate Realities is available at streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music. You should consider checking out this hip-hop gem, but also make sure to give a couple of spins to the Into The Multiverse (The Subsequel Mixes) as well.
