'Angel Response' is the full-length sophomore album from UK-based young producer Vivida.
Packed with melodic, glitchy trap beats and breakbeat drums, the record paints a 'future bass renaissance' with an atmospheric soundscape of lush, shiny synths coated in layers of brash cinematic textures of thunder and rain, each song boasting a loud, punchy mixdown.
Tracks 'Dolphinzz' and 'Reflector' are both reminiscent of a vibe akin to Rustie's 2015 album 'EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE', an evidently huge influence for Vivida throughout this decade. He also cites other producers such as Otik and Pluko as inspiration.
On the first day of pre-orders, Angel Response generated a handful of sales, technically making it Vivida's most successful release so far. The album serves as a reignition of the genre as a whole, shining a light on the return of a nostalgic sound from years ago, a clear sweet spot for anyone who misses the golden era of trap music.
