Power Ballads by London Elektricity is very much in the same vein as Drum N' Bass artists Pendulum, Shapeshifter and Concord Dawn, mixing in large portions of vocal samples with fast paced Jungle break beats. Power Ballads focuses heavily on melodic female diva vocals, at times working to great effect such as in Power Ballads, Out of This World and Will To Love. But never does it reach new grounds nor differ greatly from its contemporaries. The essence of their sound also bears resemblance to Kruder and Dorfmeister, taking organic acid jazz and speeding it up to 180bpm. When all seems to blend together nicely, London Elektricity create mesmerising melodies on top of incessantly addictive break beats, and most importantly a wonderful colour of sound.
