Music is a universal language. Or so musicians like to claim. “With music,” they’ll say, “you can communicate across cultural and linguistic boundaries in ways that you can’t with ordinary languages like English or French.” Apart from singing high pitch tone to screaming beatboxing is an early form of vocal percussion which has been around even before the golden age hiphop. It is a storied artform that by right shouldn’t be relegated to mere novelty. Today, one of Malaysia’s better-known beatboxers, ABeatC, is looking to cross that barrier with his full-fledged beatbox single title “Losing You” featuring Stemilyn.
From what ABeatC says the songs is actually about reflective of a depressive phase most would go through in modern life, “to ride the emotional roller coaster while society and reality breathes down your neck, it’s suffocating and deafening at the same time, unable to express or share your burden, we’re eaten and tortured from the inside.”
The video really compliment the mood of the song where it portray its moody neon-lit music video that’s seemingly focused on ABeatC’s expressive eyes, that statement certainly rings true.
Without further ado, click on ABeatC video on the above.
