Drawing us in with an astral synthscape and atmospheric vocal ad libs, ALPY opens Amnesia with an innate sense of cosmic dimensionality before a hissing riser leads us to a fierce beat with celestial nuances, muted trumpets and a high octane flow from the Australian rising star.
ALPY‘s cadence, delivery and poetic prowess are nothing short of hypnotising, laced with an empowering energy and captivating hooks. We are in awe of ALPY‘s flow and the accompanying production, which is refined, perfectly mixed and brimful with self-realized lyrics designed to uplift the artist and awaken listeners.
Jaecy‘s verse compliments ALPY‘s energy perfectly. Adding value, aligning with his philosophical depth and creating a moment that builds not only the sonic presence of the song as a whole but the wider message.
In essence, Amnesia is a bold and confident anthem that celebrates ALPY‘s come up from being overlooked to claiming his hard-earned success. It calls out those who once doubted him, but now act familiar, as if they literally have amnesia! It serves as both a victory lap and a reminder that ALPY‘s shall not be forgotten!
We learn that ALPY hails from Melbourne and designs his tracks to fuse elements of hip-hop, trap, and R&B with honest storytelling. He cites Craig David, Drake (specifically Trophies), and Travis Scott as influences, and if we might be so bold, we can hear a bit of early Kanye West in his production style and flow too. That said, there is no doubt that ALPY is manifesting an authentic sound of his own.
It is no surprise that ALPY‘s track All I Do (featuring Sophiya) premiered on MTV Hits and stayed in rotation for a month. Another single, Now You Know (with Rydah, Lil Spacely, and Steez Malase), has also received national airplay on Triple J Unearthed, KISS FM, and FBI Radio.
Naturally, we have added Amnesia to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS and TRIPPY playlists, whilst we continue to stream the wider discography of Melbourne’s superstar ALPY, and anticipate future releases!
