    V/A - Sundrops: Lights In Motion

    in 2008

    Yah it was a serious question..

     

    Not sure I quite understand - baseline having key changes? How about melodies? Can a single melody have a key change in it?

    It's great that you ask, something that many people are afraid of! And by the way; I want to know too :) Maybe start a thread about it?

    Some very good songs but some not so good tracks on this album. I REALLY like Back to Earth, Gateway Eight and Lunar Effect! The worst track is maybe Zanchin IMHO. Its just too boring :P Still great album though! :clapping:

    Pandemonium! - Muinomednap!

    Although I agree with strydr about the production style being very formula structured, I don't agree about the review and I don't believe strydr is understanding and communicating the artist very well.

     

    I too am a little disappointed by the lack of variety - however only talking about that is misunderstanding the artist and this very fresh and original style created by filipe. I think its a massive accomplishment that this kind of psychedelic energy is captured in a goa/nitzhonot style, yet is presented in the kind of energy full-on has today. This is really big dancefloor music, and is structured similarly so as to estalish this as a unique style rather than being percieved as expiramental nitzhonot or whatever. Yet at the same time I agree the lack of variety is very much an issue.

     

    But overall this definitely is not deserving of a 3/10 rating.

     

    I have listened through this album a few times but I need to wait longer to let the tracks and their impressions sink in, and maybe play a few of these tracks at parties before I might want to review this.

     

    This album can be 5/10 - 7.5/10 depending on your taste and how well the music ages with time (whether it can be listened to more than 10 times and still remain interesting) It is too early to decide anything right now. As a first impression the music clearly is original and well produced. After multiple impressions it does dawn on you that too much remains the same from track to track - not to mention a tad cheesy... yet this is how you feel at home, how about on a dancefloor? These are things a reviewer needs to think about..

     

    Also - once and for all will people please stfu and stop causing drama around this artist. Diaks stop argueing with Strydr because you disagree with him. I will seriously ask a moderator to remove these kinds of vibes from this topic if you are thinking of bickering and another 10 page waste of time results. Please review the album ONLY.

     

    It sounds as if you state that you can say that one can tell others if music is bad or good. It all lies in the listeners hands to decide whether he likes it or not. There is nothing as bad or good music that applies to everyone as with everything else here in the world. A good review in the sense you are talking would rather be a scientific study which calculates the average perception of the quality of a specific album from all humans in the world. Then you could talk you just did. :P

    I really like this album! I would give this 9/10! Exactly my type: mystic melodies, hypnotic, warm and round kick drum; perfect to relax and dance to! I just realized that Muinomednap Pandemonium backwards. Didn't think about that. :)
