A-Trak has yet another side project called Low pros who have just released a new single called 'Muscle'.

As well as being a member of DUCK SAUCE, head of Fool's Gold Records and a successful producer in his own right, you'd think A-TRAK would find it hard to squeeze in any other new projects.

DUCK SAUCE are releasing their debut LP and Fool's Gold are releasing awesome material by brand spanking new artists but somehow, between all this A-TRAK has found the time to produce a new track with his new project LOW PROS.

LOW PROS is the brainchild of A-TRAK and fellow producer Lex Luger, who together have created a brand new track called 'Muscle' that blends electronica with hard hip-hop. LOW PROS premiered 'Muscle' at the Fool's Gold SXSW showcase and it was a huge hit amongst crowds. With JUVENILE providing slick vocals and METRO BOOMIN' and HIGH KLASSIFIED assisting in the overall production, LOW PROS have found all of the right ingredients to create a masterful track that we'll be hearing quite a lot in the coming months.

With four different producers adding their own elements to 'Muscle' you'd think that the track would feel quite clustered, but 'Muscle' is in fact quite structured with a very clear melody working in unison with JUVENILE's rap. With a fast tempo and plenty of swinging synths in a high pitch, the melody of 'Muscle' definitely has it's dominant features however, you can hear the more subtle synths and percussion sounds if you listen very carefully.

The sliding synths do become highlighted towards the end of the track as does the percussion, however the track does seem to focus more on JUVENILE and the sliding synths but of course all elements do their part in creating a hard-hitting club track.

LOW PROS will be releasing their debut EP, EP1, through Fool's Gold  later this year. Alongside 'Muscle', EP1 will also feature collaborations with TRAVI$ SCOTT, YOUNG THUNG, PEEWEE LONGWAY and plenty more.
