Evilgiane makes #Heavensgate Vol. 2 feel like a portal built from underground momentum

Evilgiane’s #Heavensgate Vol. 2 was included in Pitchfork’s 20 June new-albums guide, and it deserved its own spotlight in this catch-up batch. As a producer, rapper and Surf Gang founder, Evilgiane has become one of the more important connectors in the current underground rap ecosystem, where internet scenes, clouded production and restless collaboration move faster than old genre labels can track. #Heavensgate Vol. 2 sounds like a continuation of that orbit: part compilation energy, part producer statement, part portal into a scene where anxiety, style and sound design all blur together. Evilgiane’s strength is curation as much as production. He knows how to build a world by letting the right voices collide inside the right digital weather. The gate is open again, and the bass is probably not waiting politely.
