Very interesting, I still haven't heard any of the newer Younger Brother tracks. I am definitely going to get their new album when it's released. The style is a little different from their earlier works, but I like it. Everything changes... Nothing remains the same. :) 8/10

It's interesting to see how YB/Shpongle are growing. For some reason, they are starting to remind me of an electronic version of Pink Floyd.

^^ Really love this one too! Just as good as the original even though it has a totally different sound. 9/10

Swirly, whirly effects. Driving kick drum. There's a very subtle but extremely frantic bassline. Glitches/blips. Breakdown! This is really good. I feel like it could really take you in the wrong direction under the wrong substance. Side note: I LOVE sound effects that are reversed and whoosh way up at the end.

For my tastes: this is way too intense without the wave of positive euphoria that I love. Very good though. 7/10


Next::: the wind-up bird - this

Not bad, didn't really catch my attention though. 5/10

Addex - Nostalgic Train (Original Mix)
Click to expand...

Very nice! Soft the entire way through but there was a definite rising action and a climax without being overwhelming. Love all the echo. That beat just MOVES. The vocal samples are sparse and weird but I like them. Like the reggae-ish riffing towards the second half.

mean bassline from the start
Love the heavy drop of 2nd layer of bassline
That track really builds some good momentum through its progression.
the atmospherics were cool as accents and didn't overpower the lead parts
I really liked the lead melody that drops around 2:17.
The first breakdown around 3:23 was well structured but carried the energy really well into the next section.
Overall, a powerfull track with a little euro feel and some Ed Wood-style spacey sound effects at the end.
6.5/10

Jay Lumen - "Good Woodoo"

One of my least favorite things is a sloppily/pretentiously programmed beat where the hits are unquantized to the point of loping, offkilter, skipping rhythms (i.e. this, Samiyam, TokiMonsta, Flying Lotus). I just don't see the point. For me, it adds nothing to the song. For instance, that track had cool elements; the kids' voices, cool electric piano riffing, a neat li'l bassline...all ruined by that wack beat.
1/10

Sub Swara - "Inshallah"

the phenomenon moon in the water is likened to human experience
the water is the subject , and the moon the object
when there is no water, there is no moon in the water
and likewise, there is no moon

Not really a fan of ''house'' music, which I think is what this is, and this really just cemented that for me. I can't find anything WRONG with the tune, but at the same time I can't find anything that jumps out at me. The track seems to drag on, with buildups here and there, but never escaping that 4/4 straightjacket. I know these are staples of the genre. Again, not a fan.

The lyrics don't make any sense on their own; are they even supposed to? It seems overly heady for the sake of being heady. The track itself has a nice beat, standard 4/4 but with a couple of offset ticks/clicks to make it interesting. All I can hear is some very soft/lush synth in the background and there's a twinkly lead that comes and goes... I don't know.

I'm definitely the wrong person to be reviewing this song. I can see how people enjoy this type of music, I really can. It's tuneful, very melodic. It's soft, lush and textbook danceable. Just not my cup.


Now, an oldie but a goodie: here. Have fun :)

Not really my thing. This track hasn't aged to well. It's also borderline non-edm. This forum is for electronic music only! 3/10
