| 3.4 great | Trey STAFF | January 13th 23 |
I'm a sucker for Drum&Bass and Jungle. I like the chaotic beats and the high energy. Squarepusher is probably one of my favorites from those genres. I love the chaotic beats that drive (mostly) melodic synth. Yes, it can all start to sound the same after awhile due to the lack of vocals and hooks, but I always enjoy it. Great driving music.

Starts off strong with 'Oberlove' which features both great aggressive beats and a nice emotional melody. The next track 'Hitsonu' is similar but feels like a less superior version of the first track. Things continue this way until a more ambient track in 'Detroit People Mover' and then the album turns darker and peaks on 'Terminal Slam'. The beats are fast and chaotic throughout the record but they are simply not enough to make one want to revisit the record repeatedly as a handful of the tracks feature great melodic and atmospheric elements but some of the intermediate songs feel like filler. Fun for a few spins with a lot of great aggressive beats, some nice 8-bit elements and a few great melodies here and there but chaotic beats for 50 minutes at a time can get a bit samey and tiring.

Drill'n'bass, acid techno and some breakbeatz, so, uhm, basically, Syro part 2, but less interesting, messier and much much much more annoying than the OG. While there's nothing wrong at not reinventing the wheel, this is typically the kind of record I listen to while thinking about other records I would rather listen to. Idk how to better put this, but it does not sound like a 2020 release, but more like that one revered record from the 90s you don't really understand the appeal for. Eh.
