• Horns and growls that creep under your skin
• Chaotic first drop that suddenly makes sense
• Trap, Bass House, multiple influences…
This one took me a few listens. Est. and SISI‘s “WONT U” isn’t an easy first date.
It has a lot of interesting things inside that can overwhelmt you if you are not cautious enough. The intro? Dark atmosphere, screaming vocals, and tension-building horns that feel like they’re tightening a screw in your chest. Then the first drop hits. All Bass House/Dubstep growls and sounds spinning wildly out of control. I was already stunned after a few seconds.
To be honest, the arrangement felt chaotic, almost messy. But then -click- my brain caught up. All those elements locked into place, revealing the brutal, hypnotic rhythm of “WONT U”. Just when you think you’ve got it figured out, boom: second drop. This one goes full metallic Hard Trap, with a very aggressive lead.
What’s wild is how Est. and SISI keep one foot in the 90s (excellent sampling choices) while going full future with the sound design. The more I listened, the more I appreciated how they walk this tightrope between chaos and control.
So, “WONT U” is clearly built for clubs and festivals. A proper banger that doesn’t let up for a second, hitting hard from start to finish.
I’ll admit, as a more casual listener it felt overwhelming at first. But there’s some excellent ideas here. And now? I’m fully sold. Brutal, smart, and weirdly catchy once it clicks in your brain.
