Eddy Gatoe has been slowly introducing us to songs from his upcoming debut solo LP for almost a year now, and with each brilliant new track it becomes all the more clear that the singer-songwriter not only possesses an uncanny ability to imbue his own spirit, aura, and voice into fairly divergent subgenres \u2014 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-1U5aXNtTq0&amp;list=RD-1U5aXNtTq0&amp;start_radio=1\">\u201cThe Path\u201d<\/a> is a modern twist on \u201970s guitar-driven power pop; <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HMWjK9gOUAg\">\u201cAway From U\u201d<\/a> felt like Ziggy Stardust-era Bowie cutting some swing outtakes \u2014 but also that he is putting the finishing touches on what is almost certainly to be one of the most resonant and influential Miami rock records of the year. Now comes \u201cThe Shadow Dance,\u201d a kind of New Wave-via-pop-punk stemwinder that addresses some fairly intense emotional damage. \u201c\u2018The Shadow Dance\u2019 deals with the stage of grief that is anger,\u201d Gatoe tells New Times. \u201cI wrote it after losing a close friend. The emotions that were felt went from anger at the unfairness of life to the acceptance and realization that we must truly seize the day due to the impermanence of life. The \u2018shadow dance\u2019 is a play on the term \u2018shadow work\u2019 where one must face the darkness within ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-estebang-4matic\">Estebang, \u201c4MATIC\u201d<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"4MATIC\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/k3WpPqhNw3k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI make traditional rap, I make hype rap, I really just make player shit, and I grind my ass off,\u201d Estebang wrote in an email when tipping us off to his latest single with fellow emcee Groovy.
