Review by auxroot Mar 14, 2007 (edited over 2 years ago)
I can't believe I'm the first to comment on this! Ricardo Villalobos has made a lot of great songs but this ode to his 808 drum machine is the best. It's fun and quirky enough that it never fails to catch a group's attention but it is still graceful. His timing as he tweaks the bass drum and brings elements of the track in and out of the mix seems preordained. The production is beautiful and psychedelic, simple chords echoing as between mirrors over skipping, bass-heavy house beats. He finally brings in a super-deep rolling bassline for the last minute and it brings this incredible feeling to the song, it's like nothing else!
