To peer into ‘Anoda Dimension,’ Dopestiks invites his audience to be open-minded as they will be experiencing sound through various times, dimensions, and spaces.

What makes ‘Anoda Dimension’ even more fascinating is Dopestiks' intentionality behind making it a cohesive EP. Each track progresses gracefully, keeping the theme of the EP intact all through. A comprehensive spin of ‘Anoda Dimension’ reveals the theme to be of two (2) folds: (1) an inspirational hustler's anthem and (2) a party-centric detox from daily stress.

The EP artwork depicted that metaphorically. Dopestiks is seen paddling his boat as a lone sailor, not minding the destruction and release of toxins from the other ships at his rear. His goal stays the same—that of arriving at his desired destination—as expressed by the hopeful googly eyes. With ‘Anoda Dimension,’ Dopestiks did just that!
