Jaime XX is back with an infectious new track: “KILL DEM.” The electronic pop artist has been on a club banger streak recently, blessing us with the fire “LET’S DO IT AGAIN” in April.
An FX Craze
“KILL DEM” is incredibly rhythmic and choppy, but that doesn’t mean it’s hard to listen to. In fact, the distortion Jaime XX uses has been mastered to perfection, leading to a strangely addictive bop. The voice sample Jaime XX uses is wonderfully staccato and looped, and the bass line supports it with booming quality. The percussive club feel in this track and “LET’S DO IT AGAIN” seem to indicate what the future tracks in Jaime XX’s upcoming album will entail. “KILL DEM” is shaping up to be an autumn banger already!
