Black EL X Durkin take a conservative approach to their music. The Boston-based duo is not conservative in the sense that they produce formulaic tracks that cater to likes of pop radio stations. They’re far from that, producing a unique selection of cuts with witty lyricism and dynamic production. Black EL X Durkin are conservative in that they would rather put out a few tracks that you’ll really like instead of throwing a 20-something track tape at listeners and hoping something sticks.
Their condensed catalog consists of two mixtapes, 2010’s Color Commentary and this year’s The Collage EP, as well as a handful of other tracks. These guys are worth paying attention to and we know what to expect from them, “More singles…More videos. More parties. More shows. Global takeover. Profit.”
