Feels like: gloomy, introverted, fun, spacey, dreamy, dark, upbeat
This
is a wicked electronic, sort-of-dancey EP I bumped into on Bandcamp the
other day which I think is pretty easy to get into and it really has an
identity of its own. The whole thing is only about 15 minutes long so
you have no good reason not to.
My thoughts on songs:
The second song "This Is A Test"
starts off with a slow and dark feel but then it transitions seamlessly
into these heavily processed robotic vocals and a four to the floor
dance beat.
"09:35" is introduced with this
really great sounding chord progression being played by a really warm
synth sound that I like a lot. However there is this section toward the
end of the song where all the melodies are dropped and there are just
drums and bleeps which sounds like it might go down well in a club or
something but it doesn't really sit well with me.
"Freezing"
(featuring Sat Up And Begged, presumably performing vocals) starts off
sounding so so fantastic, a sort of dark and lonely but still super
glossy and catchy sounding pop song complete with female vocals but
instead of continuing on from the intro with more juicy music the song
just ends, having lasted all of 45 seconds. I'm not sure if this was a
purposeful decision or the song just wasn't finished but I reckon it'd
have sounded great if it was developed further into a longer tune.
"A Comedown"
is pretty neat, I like a lot of the timbres in here, especially the
sort of lo-fi, fuzzy sounding pads and some of the organic noises thrown
in (I think I heard a cough in the end? It was cool).
