AUDIO: Ian Ewing – “Redeye”
Milwaukee beat architect Ian Ewing is back with a fresh slice of late-night vibes on his new single “Redeye,” out now.
The track clocks in at a breezy two minutes, but those 120 seconds pack a punch. True to form, Ewing delivers a laid-back instrumental that rides a 93 BPM groove, blending his signature hip-hop sensibilities with neo-soul textures and just enough electronic shimmer to keep things interesting. It’s the kind of track that sounds equally at home soundtracking a 3 AM creative session or that bleary-eyed morning flight the title suggests.
Ewing has been a cornerstone of Milwaukee’s beat scene for years now, earning recognition from Chillhop Music and collaborating with local heavyweights like Strehlow and Lex Allen. His ability to craft mood-driven instrumentals that feel both intimate and cinematic continues to set him apart in a crowded landscape of bedroom producers.
“Redeye” leans heavily into atmosphere, with high instrumentalness that lets the production breathe. There’s a warm, almost nostalgic quality to the melodies that rewards repeated listens—this one’s a slow burner that grows on you.
