Experimenting with music is a big part of what makes the medium fun. You never know what you’ll get, and this draw inspires many creatives to add personal spins to every genre. For Domini, The One, this comes in the form of playing around with the hip-hop soundscape in fresh and interesting ways. It’s this idea that permeates his latest EP, “MAGIC.”
The track “MAGIC” opens with ominous chanting, making for a striking effect that catches your attention instantly. An accompanying beat keeps a steady rhythm, driving the tune through its opening moments. Domini, The One adds a haunting melody played on a synthesizer into the mix as soon as the listener gets used to this.
It’s an inspired choice that sets the mood and themes for the rest of the EP. “They Don’t Know” changes things up, running a much darker sound with a frenetic beat. The mix is anxiety-inducing by design, throwing listeners for a loop while maintaining a sweet, warm sound. It makes for a somewhat intimidating listen but also enjoyable.
“Roll Up” showcases more of the EP’s range, being much more vibe-oriented than the other tracks. It’s almost unfocused sounding, but it’s all by design. The beat is calm and methodical, while Domini and guest artist Rif NTW perform their parts with a meandering tone. While separately, it can come off as lazy, put together, it works shockingly well.
Throughout the songs, Domini retains a soft, smooth delivery that works perfectly for the dreamy, soulful tracks on the EP. Domini touches on themes of fame, money, and success, though it’s all kept pretty lighthearted. Not leaning into any complex topics allows the single to explore a greater harmony between its lyrics and sound.
Of course, this all only works, thanks to the stellar performance from Domini, The One himself. Domini’s flow is tight and controlled, and he never misses a beat. He maintains a confident and commanding presence on the EP, giving us an excellent performance. It’s a perfect match for the ethereal qualities the songs display.
Production-wise, we have nothing but praise for the EP. The dream-like synths that run through the tracks are a highlight, adding a unique, otherworldly quality. The way this is mixed with the darker, guttural sounds on tracks like “MAGIC” and “They Don’t Know” creates a sense of unease that keeps the listener on edge.
Overall, “MAGIC” is an impressive project from Domini, The One. It showcases his rapper skills and ability to craft a compelling song that combines powerful lyrics with innovative production techniques. With a variety of songs covering the gamut from bright and dreamy to dark and gritty, it has an ethereal quality that makes it stand out from the pack.
