"Surprised purists part.II"
Music is a huge influence in the design and overall aesthetic of OBEY Giant and OBEY Clothing since it’s inception in 1989. In 2007 OBEY released it`s fourth mixtape installment featuring DJ A-Trak.
Trizzy took rap acapellas and house/ elektro tracks and mixed them together while he chop up parts of the rap tracks and beef up drums here and there. Next thing you know he had 15 of these remixes and spent weeks assembling the mix itself. OBEY mixed up a couple visual styles in the same spirit as the music. They pulled from A-Trak's love of subversive animals and poppy colors and mixed it with an electro/disco version of his iconic OBEY aesthetics. The result was something unique, but distinctly A-Trak/Obey.
