Review:

 

So, another release from Pope of Gegga for the MPDQX label group (consists of

Baluns and Digital Structures), but the first one that I came over from this

southern Sweden act. Both tracks consists, as usual when something comes out

from Baluns, of heavy rhythms, a repetitive bass line and a loooot of

repetitive percussions layered upon each other. All these ingredients really

makes this music very hypnotic for some people. The first track feels a little

bit more experimental because of the strange repeating sample and the

swoooching and gnarling effects, while the second is more of a groovy

tech-trance track with a housey feel. The second takes of very repetive

with moaning effect but it transforms into a track with alooot of great

beautiful atmosphere and it´s also faster then the first one which makes this

one to a great morning track. Veeeery progressive in a good way, great

production! This track is the stronger here which makes it to my favorite of

these two, except when I really need that hypnotic, repetitive music (which

actually happens now and then). So, even if I prefer some other artists that

releases on for this label group (for the moment especially Son Kite´s side

project Trimatic), I would say that all in all I got a nice impression from

this first experience of Pope of Gegga. Anyway it´s really interesting when

many different music buyers can like the same releases, so a lot of

progressive trance-, tech/house heads can enjoy this at the same time,

enjooooy.
