"I feel like there is a new style of music emerging now, where hip hop, electronic music and alternative garage can be married" said Topher Mohr in an interview with Trace Magazine. From that statement, it's no surprise that Mohr's music blends and juxtaposes everything from rock to rap to singer-songwriter pop.
On Earthquakes (47¢), Mohr combines the roles singer-songwriter and rapper while Give It Away (50¢) mixes rock melodies and distorted guitars with fast rhymes. Mohr blends these genres together seamlessly making for a new and refreshing genre stemming from the best of contemporary pop music. This happens most notably on No Way Out (51¢) -- the most danceable track on the album. The beginning of the chorus is reminiscent of Justin Timberlake's falsetto while the rock-backed rapping during the verses sounds derivative of Linkin Park.
While some tracks on The Killer EP ($2.90) sound unlike anything you've heard before Dancebaby (48¢) and It Never Rains (48¢) contain catchy pop-rock that will bring you back to your comfort zone.
