XXL just put out a mixtape featuring new material from the artists on their Freshman Class of ‘13 list. The one track of note is Angel Haze spitting bars on a mean Purity Ring “Lofticries” sample. The ethereal synths now feel grimacing.
One of Purity Ring 's earliest tracks "Lofticries" still sounds baller two years later, bumped up to 14 and shaking the floor with its bass, so it makes sense for it to be remixed and sampled the internet over. Its most recent usage is being sampled on a new Angel Haze track, aptly-titled "Lofticries" , that borrows and loops the main refrain from the original and speeds it up a notch as Haze goes to town on the beat. If [...]
The young troublemaker Angel Haze just grabbed a sample from Purity Ring 's "Lofticries," spat some bars on top of it, and made a fucking jam. It seems to be missing a verse or two at the end, but the first verse she put on there was all I ever wanted to sound like back when I was an aspiring rapper, nawmean? You should run cuz I'm on your heels, yo You should run cuz I'm on that pill flow [...]
Purity Ring's "Lofticries" has still got legs, so we're not surprised that Angel Haze chose to use the track's unreal instrumental (and keep its title) for one of her two songs on XXL Magazine's annual Freshman Class mixtape. Angel's verbose, brutal lyrical brags surprisingly work well over those delicate synths (and added production by HiriiThe$kyGod ) - she sounds even more extraterrestrial than usual. Check it out.

Using the same elegant set - lights and drums that appear to make sounds and light up when hit, giant puffed-rice-ish lamps - that they've been hauling around for the past year or so, Purity Ring's fairytale electro washed over a sold-out, all-ages crowd at the Vogue Theatre. Megan James' voice - a baby Liz Fraser to match their Cocteau babble song titles - filled the full room, while partner Corin Roddick bore down behind his knobs and keyboards. Speaking only once or twice, to announce the impending Souljaboy cover "Grammy", but padding around the stage to gently [...]
