Distance* - My Demons

Dorstlesser, Jan 05, 2009

I bought it but returned it. Theres good grooves and good beats on it, but the tracks dont go anywhere, like his inspiration gave in halfway through every track, which is a shame. The sound is very synthy and quite distinct however, and theres definetely some good stuff here, (personal favourites being the heavy and grimey Night Vision and also Ska with its epic riddim) but overall his compositions are lacking and a bit dull. Also, in my eyes he did not exploit the potential of the synths and rythems he uses throughout the album, which leads to a lack of dynamics.

Also, it might just be me not having a huge subwoofer in my place, but some of the tracks are somewhat lacking in bass, a problem I have not come across with most dubstep records.

In short: In the end, I find it boring and lacking the proper dancefloor punch.
