Review:

 

Ladies and gents, what we have here is something good. A little backround

first...for the ppl who don't know about the group. This is a collaboration

between GMS and Synchro, and consists of the guys named Riktam and Bansi

from the Growlers, and Jeroen from Syncro. About the first track. The

combined styles and efforts are well presented here, and it has throughout

psychedelia. Very good tune in my opinion, it reminds of some good ol' gms

style, very much of "Jaws", infact. Some of the GMS tracks often sounds

pointless banging , but that's not the case with this one. I give it fair

9/10.

Bandicoot on the run is not great track, but good anyway. It's not that

wicked as the Velociraptor, but manages to be interesting till the end, no

matter how many times I listen to it. This does not have the groove and

driving potential that the first track has, but it has interesting

oscillating acid lines. Midway it turns to slower beat, but it doesn't take

long until it gets back to regular kick beat. It really gives you the

impresssion as someone would be running from something. I give 8/10 for

Bandicoot, and 9/10 for the whole EP. Bom!

The first track, Velociraptor is average... althought Bandicoot On The Run is a

killer, for the cry & the sounds of course. A good ep from G.M.S & Synchro

anyways

7/10
