RELEASES ‘FLEX’ TODAY, FEBRUARY 28
FOR FREE THROUGH BUYGORE.COM
DUB-STEP AND TRAP MUSIC VERSIONS OF “FLEX”
ALONG WITH “KISS MY LIPS,” A COLLABORATION WITH DEV
 |
Hailing from Israel via London, BORGORE—bass culture’s enfant terrible—has returned to terrorize speakers yet again with FLEX, his fifth EP of original material out today, Tuesday, February 28. The four-track EP—available as a free download via his website Buygore.com and for sale through all digital outlets—represents the latest salvo in the 24-year-old producer/songwriter/DJ’s rapid ascent.
FLEX features “Kiss My Lips”—a monstrous collaboration with Dev, the dance-music siren behind hits for Far East Movement and David Guetta—is already spawning dancefloor mayhem. The EP also includes three versions of the title track—one a pounding dubstep version, another a hip-hop flavored take influenced by the “trap music” of Waka Flocka Flame and Lex Luger—which prove BORGORE’s hardest, raunchiest beats yet, plus another version remixed by Document One.
Track listing for FLEX is:
- Flex (featuring Shay) [explicit]
- Flex (Borgore’s Dubstep Remix)
- Kiss My Lips (featuring Dev)
- Flex (Document One Remix)
Completing the package is the video for “Flex,” an over-the-top spoof of rap-video excess directed by Richard Farmer (winner of an MTV Video Music Award for his work on Gnarls Barkley’s innovative “Run” clip) which BORGORE calls, “next-level offensive.” The dubstep version of the “Flex” video can be viewed at: http://youtu.be/_9h5v5bTRIw.
The man who claims he “ruined dubstep” launches his massive headlining tour, which includes stops at Ultra Music Festival and Coachella, at SXSW March 14. BORGORE’s propulsive, interactive live shows have turned him into one of electronic music’s most popular, controversial figures. His trademark combination of bass-in-your-face frenzy and pole-dancer grinding typically climaxes with a cavalcade of bare breasts onstage and him crowd surfing over furious mosh pits; expect this latest jaunt to be BORGORE’s most wild escapade yet.
