One of the maestros behind Beyoncé’s latest video-album, has solo records are well worth the time to explore as well. BOOTS‘ production varies from the experimental, deep and bassy, hip-hop, and synth-tastic. His lyrics are bombastic and he culls features and samples that embellish his sounds with the catchiness of a hypothetical love child between Frank Ocean and Banks. Here’s the future.

Of course, it’s not as brutal as George Orwell’s illustrative description of the future in his dystopian peon, 1984. “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — forever.” These boots however, were made for grooving, foot-tapping, and perhaps even dancing.

BOOTS, a day in the life. #WinterSpringSummerFall
