iL stands for Illinois

That’s the homestate of this young producer with large hair and an affiliation with Error Broadcast, who largely comprised our list of favorite producers from Russia. How they wound up releasing iL’s work, no one knows. Error Broadcast doesn’t even know. They have zero info on the kid. And his personal Soundcloud page is completely empty.

Seriously, who is this guy.

Who cares though, his new release apoLLo1ne3hree is crazy awesome.

apoLLo1ne3hree is what happens when you take an R&B album, break it into seperate R and B components, beat those each one to a static-y pulp, and then put them back together. Some of the tracks take this to such a length that they can be kind of hard to listen to, but it all adds to the intrigue. iL is clearly doing this on purpose to mess with your head.

Download the album here.
