New York-based rapper I am TIM shows excellently on new track “big cat fears.” A nocturnal, murky beat with a whispery backing synth and heavy rhythmic pulse complement a lush vocal lead. Spacey synth accompaniments past the one-minute mark appear alongside the vocals, adding enjoyably to the atmosphere, along with the concluding key-laden twinkle. “big cat fears” is a surefire success from I am TIM, showing strong atmospheric production and compelling melodic pull.
