Abstract
The author proposes an extended play in the hip-hop tradition combined with the electronic genre where the entire instrumentation is from underwater recordings of the author’s voice. This involves the usage of a hydrophone that can be used to record the vocals, processing them to create individual elements (like the kick, snare, bass etc). and layering them with rap vocals. The style of music is heavily industrial and gritty Hip Hop beats with melodic influences of electro pop and electronica and consisting of rap verses written in English and Malayalam. The project is an artistic representation of using the constraint of underwater vocal recordings to create unique melodic ideas that assist the genre thus partaking in the era of streaming music recorded over multiple mediums
