TOKiMONSTA has been a consistently great producer, toeing the line between the hip-hop indebted future bass of the Los Angeles Brainfeeder crew and straight-up trip-hop. Her latest single, "Realla," featuring Anderson Paak, definitely errs on the side of trippy, booming R&B that seems tailor-made to soundtrack two beautiful, androgynous people fuck in an all-white hotel room whose minimalism helps obscure how expensive it is. Uh, anyways, yeah. This song now has a video, and it's great and beautiful and sensual in all the right ways.Catch TOKiMONSTA live on tour:September 19 @ El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles, CASeptember 20 @ Velvet Jones - Santa Barbara, CASeptember 21 @ Catalyst - Santa Cruz, CASeptember 24 @ The Imperial - Vancouver, CanadaSeptember 25 @ Decibel Festival - Seattle, WASeptember 26 @ Tomorrow World - Chattahoochee Hills, GASeptember 28 @ The Orange Peel - Asheville, NCOctober 1 @ Rock N Roll Hotel - Washington, DCOctober 2 @ Union Transfer - Philadelphia, PAOctober 3 @ T.T.
