In Boston now! Getting caught up on another weeks ago listen. So bad. Another one Nicole rec'd.
This sounds a bit like it should be in the commercial for a Vegas destination, with the slightly exotic strains of flutes and lolling, repetitive basslines and beats, sounding like a waterey Bad Plus. I like the upright bass, generally speaking, and I like these kinds of beats, but it doesn't quite work for me, sounding kind of shrill, and vaguely foreign, without really evoking anything in particular. There's no culture behind it, just the suggestion thereof. There's no something there.
Again, the basslines and beats are decent, and Black Forest is a driving highlight, but they somehow don't amount to much, and I'm left wanting 2.5/5.
You might like this if: You're looking for something groovy, slinky, and cool, with a bit of a ragged anachronistic edge.
