Blu & Fate
The homie Blu is forever working. After hitting us with the lead single a few weeks back, Blu teams up with producer Fa†e for their new collabo LP, Open Your Optics to Optimism. The 9-track LP has Blu on the bars with Fa†e providing the production, along with guest features from Dolphin, Versis, ScienZe, Sene, Open Mike Eagle, Khary, Choker, Milo, and Cehryl. Blu is no stranger to pairing with a single producer for full albums, he explains how the Fa†e produced track “Cosmophobia” is what moved him to make a full project with the fellow Cali resident:
'Cosmophobia' opened my mind in a different way. When I received the topic, it was very deep and very simple at the same time. I was able to dive into it and really explore another realm that I’ve never tapped into. So we decided to tap into the cosmo realm, the astral realm, and see what we could pull out and bring back.
The two revisit the track with a remix of sorts on the album. Blu and Fa†e delve deep on the astronomical sounds of the album in this interview with Bandcamp. You can stream the album in full below, and cop it in digital or vinyl form on Bandcamp via EveryDejaVu.
