Showcasing Austin’s full repertoire of talents, the project highlights his impressive lyricism and wordplay, smooth cadence and ear for hypnotic lo-fi beats – a formidable combination that makes for a fascinating listen. Speaking further on the release, Austin says, “The concept of Ranger396v occurred earlier in the year when I went on a really beneficial fishing trip with my grandfather, whose boat model is Ranger396v.

“At the time, I was unknowingly soon to be laid off from my job of four years and had taken some time off to get away from the office drama. From that trip, I was able to harness the concepts of betrayal, love and triumph that accurately described the experiences I was going through this past year. This album is also a testament to my spirituality and how much that has grown in recent years as my grandfather is a pastor.”
