After much anticipation and quite some time after its initially announced release date, Spag Heddy‘s debut album – “The Noodle Effect,” is finally out – and trust us, it’s worth the wait. Featuring an impressive 17 tracks, 14 of which are brand new, the body of work is an ode to Spag‘s true evolution as an artist over the last few years. While some tracks, like his recently released “Hammer Time” and the album’s “Fragga,” stay true to Spag Heddy‘s original bass-heavy style, what’s most noteworthy about it are the tracks that demonstrate his stepping outside of the box. In songs like “Vertigo,” “Imagination,” and “Voices,” the Dutch-born, Spain-based producer explores a softer, emotive sound with vocal-driven, melodic electronic ballads. Read on for more about his inspiration behind the album and press play on “The Noodle Effect” to usher in the new era of Spag Heddy.
“With this album, I wanna showcase more of myself than just the headbanger dubstep that I’m known for nowadays. This album made a perfect home for some of my productions that are not dancefloor-aimed but that I absolutely love and have wanted for so long to see the light of day. While a few of these tracks have been years in the making, others are brand new and show what I’m currently vibing with. Thanks to this project, I rediscovered my love and motivation to make melodic and timeless music, whether it’s DJ-friendly and/or danceable or not. ‘The Noodle Effect‘ couldn’t be a better title because it is on-brand, but it also means traveling into a singularity, which essentially is to become timeless.” – Spag Heddy
