Dr. Octagon share new track, “Area 54”
On April 6, Dr. Octagon is releasing Moosebumps: an exploration into modern day horripilation, via Bulk/Caroline. The album is their first record in two decades to feature the original lineup of Kool Keith, Dan the Automator and DJ Qbert. Today, the abstract hip-hop trio have shared a new track from the album, titled “Area 54.” It has the classic sound of Dr. Octagon’s weird, sci-fi rap and spooky boom-bap.
