Professional recording, but not quite my style (6/10)
This is a professional recording, showing expertise in producing catchy techno / house tunes, heavily based on disco and to a less extent on hip-hop and funk. Some tracks heavily reminded me of the works of the French duo Air, with their vintage sound. Disco-based house is definitely not my favorite genre and while these tracks may probably work on the dancefloor, the most of them are too primitive to be enjoyable. Still I managed to find three tracks that are quite interesting for me, despite their disco origin (nos. 03, 07 & 09). The rest is rather tiring with monotonous marked beats and uncreative and repeating sampled vocals. Fans of disco music can safely add 2 or 3 points to my rating, as it is a quality work from the technical side. It is strange, because this album is shared two times on Jamendo, in exactly the same versions, governed by the same type of a license. The second one can be found here. It has been also archived by archive.org. |
