Frank Ocean: Best Thing Since "So Far Gone"



A new interesting twist to Pop and HipHop music as a whole, Frank Ocean introduces an unearthly potion to the music industry and the way in which avid RnB/HipHop/Poppers percieve their auditory addiction. Ocean dissolves emotional boundaries of his listeners in his newest project Nostalgia, Ultra. He definitely uses aspects of nature as the "canvas" to depict his story- from the waterfall sound effects in his song "Swim Good", to the droning sound of the alarm clock in "Strawberry Swing," Frank Ocean deliberately manipulates sounds that we, as humans hear and take for granted, in our daily lives, to emphasize and reinforce "EXISTENCE."  Moods provoked: Nostalgia, Sadness, Reflection, Morose, Melancholy, Romance, Happiness...if you thought Cold Play was the "classic group" which transcended all musical genres...you have not yet recieved Frank Ocean as your instrumental gift. Check him out on Youtube or his site http://frankocean.com/

Before you go there have a looksy at our choice select from Nostalgia, Ultra : "Novacane"
